Perodua has announced that bookings will open this Friday for its latest model – the Perodua Axia. You’ll be able to book the Axia at any of Perodua’s 180 sales showrooms nationwide with a booking fee of RM250 to RM300, depending on variant.
UPDATE: Specs and prices for Axia 1.0 E, G, SE and Advance variants have been revealed.
The Perodua Axia will debut in four variant guises – Standard E, Standard G, Special Edition and Advance. The base Standard E model will be priced from RM24,900 – this is for Peninsular Malaysia and with a solid paint exterior. Here’s another big announcement – the Axia will come with a five-year warranty, which is a first for a Perodua.
Another bit of information released today is that the car will have 260 litres of boot space, which Perodua says is shaped to be able to fit four travel bags. The interior, which was previewed by the Perodua Global Model A (GMA) Segment Space concept at last year’s KLIMS13 show, seats five. The KLIMS13 preview also showcased what the dashboard will look like.
We also know the Axia will use a new 1KR three-cylinder engine, which is based on Daihatsu’s 1KR-DE used in the Ayla in Indonesia. The 1.0 litre all-aluminium 12-valve DOHC engine will produce 65 PS at 5,000 rpm and 87 Nm of torque at 3,600 rpm. It weighs just 69 kg, which is 10 kg lighter than the Viva’s cast iron 1.0 litre engine.
Now you might be wondering about the inspiration behind the name Axia and how to pronounce it. Perodua says it’s pronounced ‘a-zee-a’, and it’s a play on the word Asia. This means Perodua intends for the name to be pronounced ‘A-xia’ rather than ‘Ax-ia’. The letter ‘X’ in the name is meant to represent the number ten, as the Axia is Perodua’s 10th model.
“We believe that the Perodua Axia is competitive in the region, which is why the word ‘Asia’ was incorporated into the name. This vehicle represents a whole new standard for us – environmentally friendly, very spacious for a compact vehicle, easy driving and economical in terms of the overall cost of ownership,” Perodua president and CEO Datuk Aminar Rashid said.
A-zee-a is spelled as Azia. Axia should be pronounced as Ack-see-yah.

Then Mercedes…comment
Bye bye Proton Iriz. Go to USA China big market if local rakyat no longer support you lah.
69 for the Axia vs 163 for the GSC at this moment. Bye bye Proton, right…
Thumbs down if you like GSC lah,,, not thumbs down to GSC….
Haiyooooo….
PROTON no need to go China la..U la go back to China dumbhead! Stupid RBA!
No need thumb up thumb down go back China, go back Japan.
Sales figure tells the truth.
Soon, you will witness the ultimate 5S Proton lifestyle: Sendiri Cakap, Sendiri Syok.
I have always said this about Proton but let me say this about Perodua, especially this Axia. This car is for low class poor Malaysians who have no money.
These people have no money not because they have no oppurtunity, they have no money because they are lazy. Malas. Don’t want to work hard. They find the easy way out in life.
If you work hard in life, you will be like me, able to buy a Toyota. I am able to do so because I work hard and don’t blame the government for all the wrongs in my life.
I advice the poor people in Malaysia, especially those wanting handouts from the government, work hard and you will stop being poor and you can own a better car than this trash.
Proton and Perodua are low class cars. Why do we aim to buy a low class car that is made in Malaysia when we can buy a good Toyota from Japan?
The GSC is competing against the Myvi, not the Axia. There’s no way it will be priced at 25k…
For mid income msian under developing country status, the vehicles should priced below to pair with income.
While HP policy should revised to MAX 7yrs loan.
A segment: 20-45
B segment: 40-70
C segment: 60-90
D segment: 80-110
Luxury segment: 80k onwards
Good pricing.
But booking without knowing the spec that been offering? Is not a good idea.
Boot size comparison:
AXIA 260 L
MYVI 225 L
VIVA 149 L
Really impressed the achievement in space utilization.
You left cheap cars where they are now, but lowered the price for luxury cars. Why? Luxury is, well, a luxury. It is not required. Luxury items may be taxed higher, to support normal people.
As a Malaysian we more prefer to the Price and fuel-efficient then segment And maybe interior space.
More power 1.3 and 1.6, if still Campro engine RIP or if new dvvt/VVT engine thats different story.
GSC is in deep trouble if don’t research the market pricing.
Tun love push-up price, Rakyat will comment not on new GSC but his pride and greed.
Maybe true, But comfirm GSC can smoke this car.
Price is important, but performance and power and Lotus handling far more important then money.
GSC RM60k++ with Lotus handling(sportcar) where to find?
Axia love the price, but not the spec and performance.
Having Lotus handling doesn’t make it a sports car. Lotus can tune it for more sedate driving also, what. But it’s a given that anything tuned by Lotus would be dynamically competent and stable. Calling it a sports car, however, is too much.
bye2 vvt…
Lotus handling, powerful engine (i doubt) bla bla… You still stuck in traffic jam and traffic light.
End up burning more fuel, car also already expensive, no money left in pocket but just your Sendiri Syok feeling. What is the point?
not saying lotus handling is not important..but having that for a city car (if compete with myvi)..who cares? city car should be fuel saving, cheap and reliable enough..plus good safety spec.
Not a fair comparison…
GSC is competing against Myvi not Axia. Look at the engine. It’s below par than 1.3 or 1.6..If customer looking for comfort, power and better handling, they must opt for Proton GSC..
Cui Sui Beng again here he is.
Proton has Lotus tuned handling. Yes she does. But since when Proton quality is linked to comfort and power?
Are you looking at our Toyota and day dreaming it is Proton AGAIN?
Petrolhead, people thumb down for your comment. GSC is not A-segment car there’s no way price achieve that kind of cheap..GSC will have its own enthusiast fan who loves comfort, handling and power..
Haven’t launch already talk about better comfort, handling, bla bla bla… Small car should come with good fuel efficiency engine, does Proton has one?
Enthusiast fan? Blind fools loser like you?
Petrolhead comment:

hahahahahaha..what a brainless PROTON basher!
Do these enthusiast fan also love opening their door to pay toll cos power window rosak and kereta mati tepi jalan?
Good luck to them if so
more people like P1 PCC(thumbs down)…
Msia is xxx auto hub,
Lets export to INDIA INDON THAI etc…
GSC do the same export to INDIA THAI INDON etc…
Actually, i am kind of scared of Perodua’s safety features.. that cheap.. i’m sure they scrapped some safety features.. and i’m sure it is feather light.. Dangerous.. especially with our road condition and drivers
u better go back school. really ridiculous
No…the above is right. There’s nothing ridiculous about what he said. You don’t put an X in the pronunciation and expect people to pronounce it as a Z.
Many will pronounce it as Ak-sia (Ack-see-yah is a legitimate pronunciation breakdown to make it easier for people to read. Would you have preferred phonetics?) rather than their desired a-zee-a because that’s what how X is usually pronounced.
Only Chinese will pronouce it as ‘Ack-see-yah’.
That’s common.
Chinese only?
Fine, tell us how you pronounce it then.
Racist~
Disagree with statement.
Anyone that speaks proper English and/or watches Gundam will pronounce it “Ack-see-yah”.
You must not know proper English then.
Of course you don’t pronounce ack-see-yah slowly and split up the syllables. Pronounce it fluidly and you’ll nail it. kzm posted the proper pronunciation below.
Your funny.
Hi Chris, just because you watch Gundam doesn’t mean it’s true English. Then let me hear you pronounce ‘Xena’. It’s ‘see-na’ eh? And since you love fiction so much, pronounce Xavier for me too?
Hi Jason, good point on Xena and Xavier, but you misunderstand me on Gundam *is* English. I merely refers to Gundam Exia.
To back my own word, I must point out your example starts with an “x”, not a vowel followed by an “x”.
Some sample: Axis, Axillary, Axle, Oxygen
But to proof your point: Exact, Example.
I still have to disagree that only Chinese would pronounce it a certain way. But would you agree that the complexity of the English language gave it some room for guessing?
i use google translate to hear how axia is sound..click the speaker button

sure can… why cannot.
parked GTI
Dont forget ahbeng 9jj 0 offset hella flush mod ffirst with daihatsu sticker produce more horsepower than any human build speed machine..
Of course.
Of course no. Look at the engine! No power compare to GSC. With pricing as low as RM 24,900, can you imagine what kind of ride&handling and safety that Perodua can offer? GSC had passed Asean ANCAP with rated 5 star..This car designed to provide comfortableness to customer, best handling and high safety standard to user. Ah Beng opt for GSC!
How ever most rural families and some Ah Soh and Makcik who ferry their kids to schools will buy Axia. Cheap and Good.
definitely the standard 2 airbags, abs & ebd.
no esp
since when GSC go through ANCAP test?
Exactly. Not 5-star until proven.
I think it is safe to assume though that it will be miles ahead of the Axia or Myvi.
ko ni mesti kerja proton kan???!!!…hahahaha
biasala machai proton..
ermm,no dvvt?
I think Axia will be powered by KR-DE(without VVT) engine instead of KR-FE(with VVT) which is currently made in Japan and Poland.
If that case, Malaysia is the second country to start producing KR-DE engines after the Indonesian Daihatsu Ayla.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Toyota_KR_engine
http://www.otosia.com/berita/7-keunggulan-mesin-agya-ayla.html
Well done! Now let’s hope safety features are well equipped.
What would be considered well equipped? To be fair, for 25k you can’t expect much. 2 airbags and ABS would be nice already, stability control even nicer, but I doubt even the highest spec will have that.
Daihatsu ayla cheapest variant RM21k~ have no airbag at all let alone abs+ba+ebd combo..aircond oso don hav, radio+speaker oso lacking, no backseat belt n isofix
That is acceptable at that price, better than Kap-Chai mah.
You wouldn’t wear a seatbelt anyway. Why bother?
u dont wear..i always advice people to wear seatbelt.
So P2 is collecting bookings for a car without a spec sheet and not even pictures of the actual product? Pretty lousy sales tactic if you ask me.
Toyota also like that…and people ended up like histeria place a booking for 10 years old engine of vios. Hahahaha
It’s a Perodua/Toyota, people will book blindly.
Andrew, I think u r new in this line. P2 have done the same thing to all its model. Open for booking before launching. Why you r so weird about it?
Another P1 butthurt talking kok..
P1 making lost 1 billion dy.. still want talk kork.
No one mentioned P1 in the posts you replied to. Why must P1 always be mentioned?
If Proton, people will not book it all. Smart move indeed.
Andrew Bong, I admit it’s lousy but a bit filthy to avoid customer from buying GSC. P2 r desperate they know that if customer look at the feature provide by GSC no one will buy the Axia. In my opinion, low-end price RM 24,900 will comes with no airbag, no abs+ba+ebd and NO ANCAP! What do you expect? Only suites for student or for wives to go grocery.
Perodua is not that desperate my fried. Because Proton are way down below P2 in terms of market share. Proton everyday asking government to fund them and not making money but losses million everyday instead. Where does all this money coming from? OUR MONEY.! P1 stop chasing and keep on dreaming to beat Perodua. Myvi has been top no 1 selling since 2005 until now. Saga SV cant even beat that eventho that is your best selling car after all but super worst FC . Ah beng oh ah beng. Reality remains reality. Persona Executive? Persona SV ? this two machine is cheaper than Alza, but why is Alza standing ahead this two machine until now? ask your RnD and Product Planning to think!
Alahai.. Bodohnye komen Bodohnye.. Kalau nak compare apple with apple, bukan with durian… Kau nak compare alza ngn persona, compare laa alza ngn exora… At least proton have R&D and not only know copy paste like perodua.. pakai perodua, dah berlagak mcm pakai kereta JDM, berlagak passo, passo sette, mira… Sedarlah perodua tu semua tin milo. Kau ketuk body exora and alza, mana yg lg bergema dan kosong bunyinya…
For me Proton have the best and the worst. same goes to Perodua.
in terms of quality , proton teruk
tapi in terms of safey proton menang.
Kalau perodua interms of quality bagus,in terms of safety perodua tak sehebat proton.
tapi kenapa Exora tak beat sales alza ye ?
Sorry la brother I owe a waja and a exora and the quality is that bad until I cannot explained it lo….. My exora got problem since the day I bought it until now 4years and a half . I even send it to service at hicom service centre , 3 bulan to rectific the problem but until now still sama saja….. If don’t believe can come test this stupid car…..
Very regret to buy proton…..
Totally agree with Project 2 P1.
They have nailed the safety part which is fantastic.
3 main things Proton need to work on with their new GSC.
1. Improve quality of their parts and finishing
2. Improve on their horrible fuel consumption
3. Improve their after sales service quality and staff. No more “biasala bang, proton ma comments”
Sounds good, looking also decent, now waiting for the review…
PERODUA AXIA debut day , will be Proton DOOMSDAY for their next Very Very secretive Global small car =)
It will be doomsday for poor owners having any crash in it, unlike the GSC.
They aren’t even playing the same game.
Dont talk about crash. To have reliable car also very hard with Proton.. what alternative do we have?
Statistically seen everyone will have a car crash in their lifetime. The question will be if you’re in a car that will protect you well enough, or not, at the time that happens. (Western) Europeans usually are in a car that is safe enough, and the number of fatalities on European roads show that very clearly.
It is good to be prepared for everything that can happen. Why do people get insurance? Like health insurance, life insurance, fire insurance, …? So that when something happens, they will be ok. It’s the same with cars, people just don’t realize it. A safe car is a life insurance.
And to those who say but people drive faster/less careful in a safe car… that may be true, but then it’s their own stupidity again. Just because you have health insurance you don’t go around and do dangerous, unhealthy things.
Not talking about crashes, not being prepared, is the worst thing you can do.
So kadajawi, could you pls advise me. Now I have Proton and Perodua cars. As u said Proton with 7 star safety, 18 star NCAP bla.. bla.. but give me headache with its reliability. Buy few mths already masuk bengkel due to compressor prblm. After a week, central lock jammed. Among all, The worst was engine off at trafic lights..
Then I have 1 Perodua car, Kelisa to be precise. No airbag, No ABS, No EBD but it can drive me home, to office and I can drive comfortably. Fuel wise, full tank can alst 1.5 week.
Again, What alternative do I have?
Didn’t Axiata called dibs for being asia?
Omg so cheap! Don’t even need a loan to own this car. Great~
I found this link , quite interesting but not sure if the content is true, about perodua axia
HAHAH PROTON GO DIE!! NO NEED TAKE RAYKAT MONEY FOR R & D, PERODUA ALSO CAN COME OUT NEW MODEL LIAO. YOUR SPYSHOT GSC STILL WANT TO SPY UNTIL 3 MORE YEARS ONLY LAUNCH KA ??
Perodua don’t need R&D. They go to Daihatsu, look for a very cheap to produce model, strip it of safety features, change looks slightly and call it a new car. No one outside of Asia or maybe Africa would be willing to drive such a car.
kadajawi, the car for domestic sales. What r you talking about africa bla.. bla.. Do African drive Proton?
Eh sohai, Perodua did study for Daihatsu do you know that ? even before they produce it in Japan? planning done years before its gonna be launch here in Malaysia
The Axia won’t ever be sold in Japan. Heck, even the Vios isn’t being sold anywhere outside of ASEAN countries anymore. They stopped sales in Australia and US with the new generation. Not good enough, a car like that can’t be sold overseas. The Avanza is driving in Africa, ASEAN countries and India. Outside of that, where demanding customers live… nothing. Jeremy Clarkson recently reviewed the Avanza. He didn’t like it at all.
The Japanese equivalent of this car is the Daihatsu Mira e:S
Now u talking Mr Paul Tan..
so u pay RM 3.1 Bil for the R & D lo, since u want new genuine design
lai..lai…2nd viva is only RM10k…
“From”
Meaning its the base price. Previous perodua Viva base price is also around RM24,000.
Unless the Axia can provide the 1.0cc engine on the base price model,it’s still the same price as before according to its engine and spec. Nothing to be impressed of regarding the price.
Tak perlu nak terkejut sangat. Sama je.
Yang kelakarnya ada juga warga negara Malaysia yang bebal pergi banding Iriz dengan Axia.
“Habislah Axia murah gila,GSC kena letak lagi murah dari RM24k.”
Stupiak. Itu base price untuk Axia. Base price GSC maybe cecah RM30k. Lagi rendah dari base price Myvi. Kesian orang Malaysia tak pandai compare base on same segment.
GSC will get a same fate like savvy. Trust me.
If that happens, Malaysians truly deserve the ridiculously bad fatality rates on Malaysian roads. No use stopping suicidal people.
Wishing other people die on road accident?
You go out alive when accident in your Proton first then talk cork here ok.
Not wishing. But it’s going to happen. Unsafe cars lead to death, no matter if the accident was caused by the driver of the unsafe car or not. If you run over a pedestrian, he’s the first to die. Regardless if he has caused it or not.
And if people continue to prefer unsafe cars over safe ones, then that’s their own fault. If they chose not to wear seatbelts, it’s their own fault.
u boleh tanya dengan wanita yg selamat dari kemalangan yg maut aritu sebab preve dia 5 star
GSC, read more. Their base model come with 1.0cc. No such 660 or 850 engine for this new model. I think you yg perlu terkejut..
Ye lah Encik Leo,kan saya sudah state situ;
“UNLESS the Axia can provide the 1.0cc engine on the base price model”.
Barulah boleh terkejut.
But then you tengoklah some dumb stupiak Malaysians,they expect Proton Iriz to be price below RM25k for the sake of competing with Axia. Axia is an underpowered 1.0cc car. Iriz is a rumored 1.3cc and 1.6cc car. You tengok orang gila mana nak price kereta 1.3cc below RM25k. Macam saya cakap,base price myvi 1.3cc pun above RM40k.
Malaysians memang ‘genius’

GSC tak launch lagi la bai…macam mane orang Malaysia yang x amik tau pasal kete nak tau…ceitt!
I heard they delay the GSC launching again for the 17th time..
First,yeah.
Congrat peroduo,next myvi legendary sales figure coming soon.
RIP PROTON GSC
what is the engine for the “Standard E” variant?
also using the 1KR-FE or still not known yet?
also i would like to highlight that from the perodua 1KR engine spec sheet – the unit does not come with variable valve timing
so it should be 1KR-DE instead of 1KR-FE
From Wikipedia:
“The 1KR-DE is the non VVT-i variant of the 1KR engine. It produces less power and torque than 1KR-FE.”
New perodua out soon already. MEANWHILE AT PROTON HQ, WORKER ALL STILL TIDUR, MINUM KOPI DAN “BER-WANKING”. DAMN SAD LA. HAIZZZ
May be, Proton are still un-decided to fit GSC with Campro or Honda engines, that is why the delay?
I doubt it. At this point the car must be pretty much finalized if it is to be launched any time soon. Probably just ironing out bugs here and there and waiting for the PM to be available for a speech… such a busy man!
I believe such prices are due to EEV incentives. Thus making it sound like a really really good deal. However I hope that the car will have a decent safety specs across the range (to which I also doubt, given Perodua’s previous practices)
There is no doubt this car will outsell Proton’s GSC/PCC. A-segment vs B-segment, can’t compare la. General young Msians will always choose a reliable small cheap citycar over a techy premium(ish) Fiesta/Jazz rival.
i believe the rival for perodua axia is the kia picanto
It seems like perodua crossed the finish line ahead!
They are always ahead of P1 and will still be ahead in the next few years.
might be nice, but perodua.. hahaha sudah lah, hit abit only thn the bumper come out dy

dh kawen lom?..
Good starting price from p2
24K.. FC 20/L?.. go to hel GSC… tapau P1.
Not sure whether to believe in the F.C. figure from the manufacture or not, anyway it will still be better than P1 cars.
Haha.. ppl launch car already, proton masih spyshot. When is the next spyshot?
Tapping up the GSC takes a lot of time. That why Proton cannot launch this model yet.
Yea… they can continue with their spy shots and reveal sikit and sikit and sikit. These ppl are still living in the last decade. Even the same method was used in the last decade on Savvy failed miserably.
R&D take a lot of time and money. Pdua don’t buit a car, they just ask dia tawkey (Daihatsu) for a new model and then tukar nama…
Not true, they changed the bumper and front grills, they also substitute some original parts with local ones.
You think those alternative designs are Perodua’s own? It’s all part of the original R&D that was not considered for the final model for Japan or other markets. There will be various alternative designs for finishing, bumper, grill, etc.. during the design stage.. just pick an alternative for different market only.
I read everything and I scroll down until suddenly I saw Volkswagen Golf GTI ads I clicked and now its booked now.
only 24K, sure its serve you as 3rd world country car, toyota and daihatsu throw rubbish for malaysian and brand it as perodua.but malaysian is very happy here…
Agree, this axia should be sell in Vietnam or cambodia…If axia were sell in thai or indo market, I think nobody will buy it.
Just some facts to highlight about your comment.
The Indo version of Axia is the Daihatsu Ayla and sells over 4500 units monthly since its launch in September 2013 and is the 4th best selling car in Nov and Dec 2013.
Cause Indonesia is a first world country with high standards and demanding customers, right?
You should thanks Tun DrM implanting AP system and excise duty in m’sia.
If not RAKYAT are driving at least c-segment and d-segment (whatever brand) in city and even kampung.
RAKYAT is the victim.
The cheapest version must be pretty bare-bones. You will be drown by road noise while driving it. Is this what car buyers deserve?
what you expect from 25K car?
Care to elaborate more…
TT… you should complete your comment with “what you expect from 25K car in Malaysia?” hahaha…
For 25k that’s acceptable. But knowing P2 they’ll be offering the car for 40k too… while still being every bit as rubbish.
Ya..for 24k? i believe u will get a noise engine, no airbag, no aircond? agree with Henry and Kialai..no one will buy it if P2 sell at indo and especially in Thai mkt.
By looking ta the price tag, Viva will surely EOL. Do, only 1l displacement available then? No more 850 and 660?
Viva 1.0 is completely phase out already. No more in production.
I don’t understand why Perodua is regards as national car despite it being re-badge models and operation control by invisible hands from Japan ..
I think it was decided by Dr M that time where he agreed to let Daihatsu to earn 51% shares in Perodua Manufacturing. Now, he made a U turn by telling Perodua is the biggest competitor to Proton..
cheapest one at price tag RM24,900 (E Spec) and most expensive one at RM45,400 (Advance spec).. can u see the price margin?.. so what u expect for RM24,900 model? hahaha
Finally Axia. Then why tried to be so secretive few months back? anyway good name, and hopefully good look too.
For those who don’t care about their safety then they will buy P2 Axia. With a RM24k i doubt what P2 put inside the car. With the current raw material price? Airbag? No at all i guess….
I still believed with Proton. Really hope GSC is much-much better than Axia. Please do not tolerate with Safety!!!!
i love u(p2), cause u still care and thinking about me(low low income people), cause u offer this ‘AXIA’ at RM24,900.00 start(pls equip with abs & airbag), if i can afford to buy a comfortableness, best handling and high safety standard car, sure i won’t choose u, i choose Volvo, but i can’t afford.
My son goes to college in his motor bike and we worry every time he goes out. For $20,000 for a car no matter how basic, I will worry less if he drives this car to college
Booking blindly is one big risk taken. After all, experience also shows that within few months of launching. Normally Malaysian car manufacturer will re-introduce that same car with better specifications and price choices. And I know I am right.
1.0 Axia vs 1.0 Fiesta… that’s how the HP is all about. 65 PS 125 PS, 21 km/l vs 19 km/l, RM25K vs RM94K. Its all about cheap plus impressive fuel efficiency. What’s changed… no more DVVT.
ada wang angkat kereta besar, kurang wang angkat kereta kecil sahaja. Ukur dibadan sendiri; only you know better your position.
Nak comment pun be mindful jgn emosional – put yourself in the shoe if you were one of the designer / engineer to those car…
69kg weight?
Seriosly?
Just the engine, bro
I think, i would rather wait for a few months after the release and wait for Paul tan and his team to review this model. Just to be sure.
In Malaysia, Worker earns RM 2500, uses Rm24900 to buy 1.0 Perodua Axia
in USA, Worker earns USD2500, uses USD24900 to Buy Mercedes CLA basic model.
Can you all see the difference??
Proton Preve harga RM90K at Jakarta Indonesia. Giler ke aper.
Cerato is 99k here. Gila jugak kan?
Economy of scale there and currency exchange rates do matter here. If you want to compare, compare it with other developing countries
True. That’s sad.
You hit the nail on the head bro. THATS what Malaysians want. The problem is, most commentors here are so ingrained with the 20k low end car/100k+ for mid range saloon, that they cannot is hard for them to imagine getting a decent car for low price. Sad really.
aiyaa..25k pun mau komplen..kalo tak puas hati amik full spec laa..org dah kasi pilihan bukan tak kasi..dulu kancil 660cc mula2 keluar pun 20k+..ini enjin 1000cc pun tak puas hati lagi..nak harga 15k ka?..buat keta sendiri la
I am sorry but our roads are full of cars. And with this price tag, I wonder how many more of this junk will throw on our road. Perodua has been making fine car like the Myvi and they should aim at making a good quality car rather than a sponge in a milo tin.
What kind of feature can be packed in at this price?? Aiyo..
I think it will be mostly old cars that will be taken from the road in turn… old Iswaras etc. being replaced. More cars would need more drivers…
Also, the Viva was offered for this price too… nothing new.
then if add gst how much is the final price
in my opinion, i think the one most important thing for compact car is that its fuel economy. is it efficiency or not as the fuel in our country is not that really low in price right now if know what i mean. the GSC is competing against Myvi. if GSC have six airbag + lotus handling + ESC + other safety feature and the fuel economy is high n effience, then it is not possible for GSC to take down Myvi. the remaining factor is the price and of course the quality that Tun M talk to improve but we must pay more. so we’ll see that when the GSC launch. :)
Looks like my nightmare came true. The cheapest variant with a decent safety specs (2 airbags, ABS+EBD) is the SE variant.
1.0 SE manual, RM37k. Gotta spend extra RM13k for more safety. Come on, make it standard across the range! What a ripoff!
If Proton GSC tak laku later, then offer SV models much cheaper pandai pulak you tak komplen earlier GSC buyers kena rip-off.
where’s the variable valve timing?
basic auto is 35k. i thought it would be 30k-32k. sigh :(
apedehal…tambah lagi 3k jeehh…kedekut!!
After plus the interest, its kedekut or berjimat… :D

MYVI 225 L
VIVA 149 L
Really impressed the achievement in space utilization.
with RM24,900 price, definitly i’ll buy this car!!!…
I think 25k is for basic version which no radio, no accessories, no powersteering etc. same with viva basic. However perodua just show the back view of the car for now. In my opinion, not a gud move to place order/ booking. Better wait full official spec comes out first. Proton GSC will compete with myvi, so think better not compare with this Axia.
more and more cheap cars appear..more and more copy license appear..more and more crazy drivers appear..as the cars are cheap,they simply drive,accident oso, so what..
I want KIA Picanto, but maybe cant afford to buy above 55k, so considering axia. still doubt if axia better than viva @ myvi?
Aiyo! This and gsc all kereta buruk la. Some more want to sell between 25k and above ar? Macam msians are beggars la.
Komen pasal kereta semua isu keluar..semua orang malaysia..aku pandang kereta kau..kau pandang kereta aku..kecil,besar..jadi apa bezanya…semuanya ikut kemampuan..aku percaya majoriti di sini semua pakai kereta 140k ke bawah je..minoriti yang pakai lebih pada 150k ke atas mungkin gelak je baca komen korang..
this type of car..piece of crap!..
low cost vehicle.. cost down product.
can contribute many2 people die on road soon..
Who want to buy cheap car then go for P2 Axia, who need advance technology, confort, higher engine capacity then go for Proton GSC nothing to argue and there is nothing to compare between P2 Axia and Proton GSC due to both is difference class is not fair to compare
The Axia head just revealed half at Perodua official webpage now. Take a look
