Paul Tan on the Automotive Industry
Here’s some shots of the Daihatsu version of the new 2nd generation Toyota Passo. If you want to know more about what’s changed with the 2nd generation car, you can head on to the story about the Toyota Passo version. The platform is most likely similiar to the 1st generation but there are new Dual VVT-i engines. Look after the jump for the gallery of the Daihatsu-badged car. Perodua’s version will come soon I suppose!

Better sell your myvi fast!
endre,
myvi daa.. viva will come from mira daa.
it looks like the design is limited by its name BOON, so it has to look like BOON,
looks like kia picanto from the front eh
disappointed that they didn't lose the "fat ass" ;D.
The rear lights look like NAZA Forza, The front lights looks like it has been designed by someone who just learned how to draw.
The design is everywhere. It does not look cute (like the Aygo). This thing makes chinese cars like the Benben look decent.
same base, engine only add old tech vvt , mod bumper and front/rear light.
then walahhh.. so called new car with over 15K price increment!
soooo Toyota. prtttfftftftftftfeatmyfoottftftft
if myvi like this, people don't like it better take italdesign like proton
i bet those myvi owner will rush to chop shop to get the parts just to look like the new boon…haha…lame poser…
I hate it very much!! And I know it will come in malaysia as myvi replacement.. Jeez, another eye soring product..
Boon = Myvi =Passo = Tho most boring car I've ever driven
….and now its become very ugly. Previous one at least good looking with no soul
perodua d54t… coming this end year 2010..
new myvi 1.5 maybe will based on this model..
looks heavy , just enough for its extra power

Watch out for Perodua MyVi Mk.II with this license plate: POY05!
Harharhar.
nissan micra profile + renault twingo front.
this could be the replacement of Myvi..eh..hold on for sec..Toyota own Daihatsu..so could this car got a stuck pedal?..its remind me to Perodua..hehe..beware..they got some Toyota item in it..
)
look like cartoon
front view looks like picanto
Where is the foglamp?
perodua myvi cute edition. hehe… come on proton…do something!
This looks like the mini segment car recently such as the Suzuki alto sort of car. Speaking of which the rear really does look like it
that one is BOON .. Make by daihatsu
How about passo? Make by toyota?
Anyway looking nice..
If perodua announce new myvi will be lounch.. paultan reader will be the 1st how it look like.
Maybe this model will become replacement model for myvi
lol perodua keep it this way…don make unnecessary localization
I think, maybe this the model that Perodua going too bring in… MY friend working at perodua said in 2011 Perodua will be launching new Myvi replacement. The size is between current Myvi and Viva…
So, maybe this is it…
eh… Toyota got no idea to design car? now have to ciplak picanto design? where's ur dignity toy auta??
Errmm, new Myvi's gonna look like this?? Hope P2 will be more creative when designing new myvi!!
cute? Buy new glasses pls…. Looks like a dragonfly eye headlights
first toyota passo2, second daihatsu boon2, and later of course produa myvi2..
so many myvi hater came in, at the first light, just to critic this car.
i think a lot myvi hater actually loves myvi, otherwise they would not have the time to look and comment here.
or they are a loser who got nothing to do at this festival time, but to critic the new myvi, lol.
get a life peyno.
if ppl buy this if p2 take it bulat2, i don't know la what they think
i dont hate myvi…
but i hate posers… buy as PERODUA MYVI… put Toyota logo, japanese stickers here and there… they thought the car is JDM but driving style is still 'kurang ajar' malaysian style…
will this 2nd rate jap car cause proton to lose market share and suffer losses again?
answer is no, cos proton already learn to copy perodua and go back to rebadging mitsubishi cars.
at elite… they are diffrent rebadging act…
Perodua:
Kancil = rebadge
Kelisa = Rebadge
Myvi = rebadge
Viva = rebadge
Nautica = rebadge
future car = maybe rebadge
Proton:
Wira = rebadge
Waja = homegrown
Gen-2 = homegrown
savvy = homegrown
Persona = homegrown
Neo = homegrown
exora = homegrown
Waja replcemnt = rebadge
Persona Replacement = homegrown
future model = maybe homegrown = some rebadge
*mistake
future model = maybe homegrown + some rebadge
BOONtot.haha.
When p2 update it with the overprice SE version, it'll be much better than this
erkkk!!!… ( 4 da g@y ) LoL
hmm, it will be here as the new myvi and probably look better than this.
the old myvi wasn't very good looking at first, but perodua did some changes to make it look nicer.
same should happen here.
I hate daihatsu, all lame jane designs…
boring looking car.
myvi car is for noob
azman, dont laught at others…
Even Gen.2, Saga, Waja & Persona a lot of them replace the logo & engine with mitsubishi..
Even the engine itself already change to more powerfull 4G92 mivec or 4G93T wif tiptronic that P1 CPS cant match…
Have u heard the BLM saga? BLM = Boleh Lagi Mivec! check youtube and blog around Haha… Campro engine dont know throw where already for those tuners..
Proton = can they rebadge the power window too? I think the homegrown doesn't work well lah. Hahaha.
God I'm really pissed off to perodua for this!! they're just gonna rebadge it again with only a little mods and OVER THE TOP pricing!!!…their car has no soul! no identities! they never grow up……………..
Not many people realized Toyota taken us for ride as we blindly love T-brand, in some case me included (for certain Japanese and American models: Estima, Tacoma, Tundra, iQ and Land Cruiser).
I believe, Toyota will give us MK 2 Passo/Boon to be slap as new Myvi. Good as sequel model will force P2 to have replacement model sooner.
Bad, if they'll give and treat us like second class market (more possible) as we're too blind to force them give us better product, on par with JDM variants. My bet, P2 variant will get less modern engine (remember, Toyota always give us less modern engine/specs to JDM as well as European variants).
Toyota group definitely using Asians to finance their heavy loss in more affluent market. In Jan/Feb 2010 Utusan Konsumer, UMWT stubbornly denied their Vios owners complaints about their cars problem.
If p2 thinking to sell this car around Rm50k, please included dual vvti; stop-start technology and try to follow styling cues from iQ. I'll buy, too. Even better if they'll bundled aforementioned stuffs in efficient turbodiesel powerplant.

p2 salesman in trouble, finally they realized, ppl buy p2 not becoz of P2 itself… but TnD behind them
all this while…
" our car design from japan, engine from toyota.. unlike proton, engine local made.. not good"
but now, they can't use this "modal" anymore…
prrrrfthhhh
future… to ECO freindly.. hybrid engine… they still continue dual dvvt, triple vvti… sucks
staff, for your info.. NOT all myvi drivers buy the car to go JDM…so don't generalise..
in compact car segment, gov want to protect p2..just imagine Honda jazz are sold more less same price as viva, myvi… who wanna buy this cecodok???.
be a man.. open our market pls
prrrfthhhh
aiyah another boon ermm no komen lah.. plz dont compare this to our other car manufacture just comment about it lah u all nih both diffret segment of car hehe .but it will soon come to malaysia with diffrent badge called perodua
oit staff ko nih pepandai jerk erkk saga blm nape ko tak taruk heheheheh
Well, Toyota Passo / Daihatsu Boon with Perodua cosmetic = 2nd Generation Perodua Myvi. It could be replaced next year?
Anyway, I still prefer proper sedans or hot hatch (Satria Neo, 2011 BMW 1 Series or the 2010 Audi A1) Hahaha….
The problem with most of the Perodua models are the small boot / luggage space. So, who say Perodua "Building Cars People First"? It's not actually a practical car! I've seen the car owners having problem to put their goods that they bought with 4 – 5 passengers on board.
i hope p2 rebadge daihatsu materia rather than this car….materia way cooler than this car…huhu
wow. cantiknya kereta ini. lebih lawa daripada semua design proton!
better rebadge daihatsu move instead of this kind just cute car
hehehe…gurl car…

Boleh gak letak plat lesen :SYOH5….. Jgn risau, paling pun 1setengah tahun lagi Malaysia dapat downgrade rebaged sebagai perodua dengan teknologi usang toyota yang telah diperbaharui vendornya serta harganya setanding sedan tetapi masih mengekalkan ciri2 compactnya… ya… sememangnya Myveey2 evolusi…. (Enjin tetap pakai DVVT aje)…
Daihatsu Coo or Toyota bB with 1.3 and 1.5 engines definitely a better choice as P2 just change the front/rear end of new Myvi.
Better luggage room for the small car.

for sure bro, they(P2) are verrrrryyyyy expert in bumper design..sure they'll do better compare this BOONtut car
to all that think i offend myvi owners… I said i dont hate myvi… I HATE POSERS…
Put any logo to your car and still have the kurang ajar driving style… Thats why i hate them…
what's wrong with re-badging?…
thanks to stupid govt we can't afford the original model.
Azman..u ketua pemuda UMNO ?
poor you must be driving a savvy who can't re-badge.. oh.. you can..rebadge to SAWI
Pity Savvy owners they can't put any badge on their ride. Wait till mew Waja Lancer-based. A brilliant move from merely producing home grown car like Persona, Gen2.
paul, are you sure this is 2nd gen daihatsu boon? boon is also known as Sirion and if it does count, then this is the 3rd gen Sirion aka Boon aka Passo.

yeahh as i said, at that time p2 salesman must be in trouble
" ini keta engine jepun mari tarak macam proton local made" ..
prrrfthhh
i agree with CK…..whats wrong with rebadging….everyone seems to be doing it nowadays…..while only certain parties get condemned for doing so.
while ppl are bashing this so called rebadged car…..it tops the sales charts all the time…..so ppl are bashing out of jealousy?
P1 gotta do something in order to win back some sales from P2…….
maybe P1 should follow naza footsteps………slap high spec stuff and sell cheap….im sure it will win back buyers…..of course maintain good quality.
hahaha… want to condemn Savvy eh…
must be POSERS…
Summore, want to blame the Govt bcoz cannot buy JDM… Blame The OFFICIAL REBADGER la…
Hantam sajalah Labu…

why buy car must re-badge?
for me by re-badging your car like you are not satisfied with your current ride. it seem like you 'marketing' you dissatisfaction of your ride everywhere you go by saying that (for example) hey everyone……. i am driving toyota passo! not perodua myvi!!!!

—————————————————————-
Why not change Savvy badge to others ?… coz savvy badge are good already coz of that is proton design & Proton badge nowdays are looks good already, same goes to Gen2, Neo, Persona & also Exora (Mitshubishi will rebadge Exora & Persona for they M line u know that)… Not wrong if proton rebadge Lancer for waja platform since the name waja it self show strong, currage & carisma also same as Lancer. This win2 situation coz proton get lancer tech while mitshu get 2 M line platform. I have Honda accord but i not change to Accura, have savvy that can change badge to renault clio but did not, also Exora…. need to change Badge ?… Nope… but Exora rebadge maybe will be change badge to Proton badge….. However about this Passo/Boon@Myvee (in future), nothing hype on it since they just do major plastic surgery to make it like teenager but the age u all know already right & also this are the way T to cover they loss in they "SAP" by selling this crap to asian market… So normal to T supporters to not see this as they T game play….

nothing wrong with rebadging.. but something wrong with 100% rebadging
even Daihatsu got Homeground and rebadge model…..p2 on top of sales charts not becoz of PERODUA itself.. but becoz ppl tot buying p2 cars like buying JDM TnD…prrrfthhh
so later.. p1 rebadging waja lancer.. i believe it will be easily hot selling car becoz it is Japan Mitsu and not P1

neo (mistu colt rebadge)
exora (mitsu grandis made uglier rebadge)
waja replacement (mitsu evo rebadge)
persona replacement (company close down by this time)
future model (proton no future)
its cute..but….
looks boring…
same ol boon with diff. styling… shame2…
Daihatsu Boon = Boontot
Toyota pASSo = Ass
So you all t n d just kiss japanese ass! lol!
Well….a good year to compete…..Nissan March will be ready…..new 1.2l CVT engine. Toyota passo 1.3l CVT Dual VVTI engine…….My verdict: Passo!
Aiyo, everyone have its own taste la..dun care who rebadge and who didn't..also a car mah, can fly meh?..at least we willing 2 buy it and satisfied with our car..no need to compare with others..
pity to mazda 3 mps.cannot afford to buy even mazda 323……just rename…
Perodua will launch Myvi replacement in 2011. Surely its in their plan.
So, whoever buy Myvi this year (2010) will be getting a known, phased-out car.
Whoever wanted to buy Myvi (there's a lot of them!) better wait for the replacement. If not, buy 'old car' lah. Myvi has been around for how long?.. 6~7 years already?
Beside, when 'new Myvi' come, current Myvi popularity sure fall one.. rugilah.
Still prefer the Passo 1 aka Myvi, this Passo MK2 look weak and somehow look like down graded it's exterior design.
haha… Mazda 2 MultiPleShit,
you have no other point dont you?
hahahahahahahahahahah
REBADGE ALSO COOL WHAT.
Crash rating anyone?
ABS,EBD, airbags?
3rd world car by Toyota?
i don't hate the car…Myvi i mean, just the dumb-ass drivers…i drive a car which has triple the horses from them also still wanna TRY to tail-gate/out-run me…u never drive a car before meh??

sorry i cant afford Camry, alphard..
prrrrtfhhhhh
u are wrong there is not car maker all around the world doing 100% rebadge
nothing wrong with rebadging.. but something wrong with 100% rebadging
even Daihatsu got Homeground and rebadge model…..p2 on top of sales charts not becoz of PERODUA itself.. but becoz ppl tot buying p2 cars like buying JDM TnD…prrrfthhh
so later.. p1 rebadging waja lancer.. i believe it will be easily hot selling car becoz it is Japan Mitsu and not P1
==============
u might be right…..only time will tell whether the so called waja lancer can excel in sales just by doing a rebadge and selling at a cheaper price….
thats probably the only way for ppl to buy "japanese" cars while paying less…..since our tax structure does not encourage foreign brands.
and why is it wrong for P2 to do a almost 100% rebadge?? after all P2 is essentially owned by Daihatsu anyway….so its like the owner selling another of its product only in a different area?….makes logical sense business wise to enjoy all the incentives.

if they owned by Daihatsu and doing rebadge 100%… why its called NATIONAL CAR and Gov. want to protect them???
look at Indonesia.. Honda plant in Indonesia make HONDA freed and toyota make thier own AVANZA, UNSER and INNOVA but they never claim they are NATIONAL CAR MAKER??? act like hero and dont HIDE behind "big name loor…
Hide the badge (I was not looking at it first), I tought it's Geelee or Chery or Chana!
Ha ha ha… what a design!
More option for Ah Bengs who own MyVI.
wahhhh…. a brand new goon.. ops boon… lolz…
laki buang kote je pakai myvi hahahahahahahaha
Wow… I didn't know gen2 & persona were originally renault meganes …
Thanks Mazda 3 MPS for the info !
Front looks like a mini Kia.
i like the old model
rear end look like avanza
I wouldn't mind screwing mulyiple chic in this car… its jaz so spacious that i think i might forget i was inside a car!
aku tak peduli org nak pakai myvi, modified or etc…. yg aku peduli banyak driver myvi, baru tampal P, kereta standard katak, dah bawak macam jalan raya kat m'sia ni bapak dia orang punya. apa yang korang bangga ngan kete korang tu? hebat sangat ke? orang yang pakai skyline pun takde la gayat nak mampus mcm korang.
Proton:
Wira = rebadge

Waja replcemnt = rebadge
Persona Replacement = homegrown
