Perodua Kenari – Uniquely bad or brilliantly practical?

This year not only marked the 20th anniversary of the Proton Waja, but also one of the weirdest Perodua models sold. Before the overwhelming success of the Myvi, Perodua was always overshadowed by Proton. Granted, Perodua and Proton weren’t directly competing then. Perodua focused itself on basic city runabouts with smaller engines and this didn’t affect sales of Proton. Perodua had a very simple 3-car line-up too. The Kancil was meant for beginner drivers, the Rusa was for simple commercial use

Perodua Kenari – Teruk dan pelik, atau ‘best’ dan praktikal?

Tahun ini, kita bukan sahaja memasuki tahun ke-20 bagi Proton Waja, tetapi ia juga ulangtahun bagi salah satu model Perodua yang paling ‘aneh’ pernah dijual. Sebelum kehebatan Myvi terkenal seantero Malaysia, Perodua seringkali dibayangi oleh Proton. Hakikatnya, Perodua dan Proton tidak bersaing secara langsung ketika itu. Matlamat Perodua berfokus pada pemanduan biasa di bandar dengan enjin lebih kecil, dan ini tidak mengganggu jualan Proton. Pada masa yang sama, Perodua mempunyai barisan 3 ker

Perodua Kelisa – The modern successor to the Mini

Clarkson is an ape. That’s quite a way to start off a story about the Perodua Kelisa. We all know how he made fun of the little Malaysian car and while it was all for entertainment, Malaysians tend to go a bit on the defense when someone picks a fight with our culture. The Perodua Kelisa wasn’t supposed to be a remarkable car. It was launched in 2001 and while it was originally planned to be the replacement to the Kancil, it was instead sold alongside it for six years before both cars were repla

Perodua Kelisa: MINI kegemaran Malaysia!

Zaman sekarang ni, kereta dibina semakin besar. Sebab itulah trend kereta sekarang ini ke arah SUV. Besar dan luas. Namun tahukah anda, SUV lebih senang terbalik berbanding sedan? Oleh itu, fikir dahulu masak-masak sebelum melompat mengikut trend masa kini. Namun, lain pula ceritanya dengan zaman dahulu. Di bumi bertuah Malaysia ini, kita telah diberkati dengan kereta bersaiz kecil, Perodua Kancil dan Perodua Kelisa. Kedua-duanya memang mudah dipandu tetapi Perodua Kelisa menganjak paradigma kit

Should you buy a new Perodua Myvi or a used Honda City?

If you’re a fresh grad looking for your first car, chances are you’re looking at the Perodua Myvi. It offers great value for money and is packed with features, some of which aren’t even offered in cars twice its price. But then someone said you could buy a used Honda City for about the same price. So how should you decide? Before we continue, we'd like to note that this isn't strictly limited to the Honda City. Other options can include the Toyota Vios, Honda Jazz, Volkswagen Polo, etc. Likewise

New Proton Saga – Could This Be A Better Car Than The Perodua Bezza?

The Proton Saga is Proton’s bread and butter model, a model that has been (and still is) the default first car option for many car buyers. That quickly changed when Perodua introduced its first-ever sedan, the Bezza, back in 2016. Car buyers now have a new alternative to the evergreen Saga. The third generation Saga was introduced just two months after Perodua unveiled the Bezza, giving its core model a much-needed upgrade.

A new decade calls for a new Perodua Bezza. Perodua launched the facelifted 2020 Perodua Bezza earlier today with the tagline ‘Bolder. Smarter.’ The updated A-segment Perodua Bezza benefits from some much needed upgrades to face the challenge of a reinvigorated Proton Saga. Prices for the Bezza have also gone up across the range – with price adjustments ranging from RM 90 to RM 2,190, depending on variant - but it’s justified by a proportionate increase in features.

Next-gen Perodua Bezza could debut in 2023, to get DNGA platform?

The Perodua Bezza is Perodua’s first attempt at developing a sedan. It is an A-segment sedan that competes directly against the Proton Saga. Developed from the ground-up using the Perodua Axia’s platform, the Perodua Bezza was launched in 2016 and received a facelift in 2020. Typical of Perodua’s slightly longer 6-to-7-year product lifespan, the next-generation Perodua Bezza isn’t expected to arrive until circa 2023. We estimate that the next-generation Perodua Axia, which the Bezza is based on,
