Here is something amusing. While some Perodua Myvi owners in Malaysia have been visiting the bodykit shops with plans to convert their Perodua Myvi to it’s JDM Daihatsu Boon/Toyota Passo look, Daihatsu has decided that the Daihatsu Sirion it sells in Indonesia will use the Perodua Myvi’s styling!
It looks pretty much exactly the same as our Myvi like it’s curvier headlamps, front and rear bumper, rear numberplate location, as well as LED tail lamps. Even the interior uses the Myvi’s interior, with the shifter positioned conventionally in the middle of the two front seats instead of mounted on the steering column like the Boon and Passo.

AI-generated Summary ✨
Comments highlight that the Daihatsu Sirion in Indonesia is essentially a Perodua Myvi with different branding, produced through joint ventures between Malaysian and Japanese automakers. Some express pride in Perodua's role as a regional hub, while others criticize the cars' quality and design, comparing them unfavorably to other models. Overall, the sentiments are mixed: recognition of strategic alliances and manufacturing efficiency, but skepticism about quality and national identity of the vehicle.
