Daihatsu has introduced its facelifted fifth-generation Move in Japan, and though there aren’t any major changes to the car – which was introduced two years ago – a simple crash-avoidance system is now being offered, a first for the kei car segment.
Reports indicate that the system employs a laser to detect obstacles in front of the car, and applies the brake automatically to avoid a collision.
The facelift features four grade variants, these being the L, L”SA” as well as the X and X”SA,” in both 2WD and 4WD forms. The 3.39 metre-long vehicle continues on with the KF-VE 660 cc normally-aspirated mill offering 52 PS at 6,800 rpm and 60 Nm at 5,200 rpm, which is paired to a CVT gearbox.
The reports add that the new car is good for 29 km per litre in terms of fuel efficiency, up two kilometres from the pre-facelift. The Move will be more familiar to us as the Perodua Kenari, but this one is very far removed from the second-gen one we know.
Looking to sell your car? Sell it with Carro.
When will it be official launch in Malaysia???
Nice car….. 29km/L, quite equal to current Hybrid car ready….
I could be the only one In Malaysia to find Japanese K-cars desirable…
….except for the name.
Is perodua considering bringing this car as another option in malaysia market?
perodua already missed the previous Move, which replaced the one that was rebadged as kenari. i dont think they are that interested since by paying royalties to daihatsu means the car wont be competitivedy priced.
it’s good. if they bring in this.
Make new Gen viva only sell at RM25k too RM40k.
this Kenari’s replacement between RM40k to RM50k..
then facelift Myvi ommit 1.3L selling basic 1.5L starting from RM50k to RM63k.
like that can deal with the too much variant of viva… too much variant of myvi.
Plus point = Perodua no need bring in 1.3L engine anymore.
Well said. Agreed. “Kenari reborn”. No need to intro more new models with fantastic names. Use the current ones will do.
The jap has create a new english word. It’s called speclift.
Perodua Please bring back Kenari!!! I miss that car so much. Was wondering why it stop selling ????
demand not that high, considering it was priced similar to wira sedan/aeroback. it will worse because the new kenari will eat into myvi’s huge market share which perodua doesnt need.
The Kenari looked like a Kangoo that was washed too hot. I’m surprised they could even sell as many as they did, given that the Kangoo has a much more harmonious design, but sold poorly.
This thing wouldn’t be that bad for Malaysia, especially for elderly drivers.
interior hugely remind me of the myvi lb.. especially those gear shifter.. i thought perodua self designed the myvi interior but from what i see, it it ‘inspired’ from this interior.
ni mesti engineer perodua tgh sebok design bumber depan dgn bumper belakang…. pastu tada….
“THE ALL NEW KENARI” dgn tagline giler la best….!!!
Don’t worry Perodua always better in redesign bumpers…unlike Inspira very terrible nose job lah
Loike your tagline “giler la best” i must propose this to datuk aminar hehe
This is much powerful than preve
Preve’s speedometer tops at 240km/h!!! This only tops at 140km/h… How can this be much powerful than the Preve..
he was obviously being sacarstic…..
I may not like proton cars that much but get real la bro…..what did you just drank??? Daun ketum juice ka….???
why need a hybrid for the city drive? tis is good enough for fuel saving!
Yes why not fuel efficient cars given Duty Free price too? This car is better than hybrid lah
Eco car tax should be lower!
New Kenari??
Guess poorly designed.
Sure will be new model coming in near future with new badge name.
cute look…the dash reminds me to Myvi LB….
BTW P2, any plan to rebadge this MOVE??
better myvi than this
60 Nm at 5,200 rpm?
A Modenas GT128 has 11 Nm at 5,500 rpm already…
bring this to malaysia so can add more angry perodua on the road. There’a a lot of angry vivas, myvis and alza. So what’s another angry perodua to cucuk you from behind. Malaysians already tired seeing current angry perodua on their mirrors. New perodua will be much welcome to freshen the angry perodua lineup.
gen2 cps bro selalu kena cucuk dengan perodua ka?
If Perodua rebadge it as New Kenari price below RM50K nobody will buy Saga…even Preve owners will trade-in to get it…less problems, fuel saving, no more turbo bocor etc.
It’s a good car for city driving, considering 29km/l.
hhmmm… for sure, die hard p2 fan akan melonjak kegembiraan… tp, cantik gak keter nih…
so cute…got hello kitty version??
This is the latest attempt by Daihatsu (and parent company Toyota) to break the domination of Suzuki WagonR in the ???? (kei jidosha) category here in Japan. The 29.0 km/l is nothing to shout about since WagonR is capable of reaching 28.8 km/l according to JC08 cycle. Another new competitor, Honda N-One only can get as far as 27.0 km/l.
Price wise, Move is the cheapest but not much. WagonR and N-One are more expensive by only 40k yen and 80k yen respectively.
In my opinion, ‘King WagonR’ is here to stay.
ingatkan Honda Freed… hehehe
yg dislike mesti kaki Perodua or Kenari’s Owner..
Good! Price it RM5K to RM15K!
Small is More!!
Yeah this will the next king of cars after myvi and vios
asean version.. pakai 4AT n timing chain..prrrtfhhh
hahha Daihatsu oso using CVT for their JDM…. in ASEAN they dumb 4AT tech and ppl impressed
prrrtfhhh
This engine only available for japan as informed by their top management during myvi launch.now,the true words is malaysian mudah lupa.kekeke
viva cousin?
Please buy this car…worryless for AES… top speed of this car maybe can reach 110km/h..
New manufacturing plant in Malaysia to assemble Move ?

much have to be done.each level of people involve in this automotive industrial area should change.if we categorized in less fuel and hybrid oriented then this kinda “genius technology Move” can be produce here.
start thinking of hybrid and using less gasoline vehicle using this k-car in this country
