Perodua Myvi Engine Bay

Two days more to the Perodua Myvi launch! Is everyone excited? :P Here are some more photos of the Myvi, this time of the engine bay.


Here are photos of the Perodua Myvi 1.3’s engine bay. You can look at the K3-VE engine sitting in there, waiting to be started up and driven.


The air filter box says 1.3 16V Twin Cam.


The air intake sucks air from the left side of the engine bay. Actually the engine bay looks pretty cramped. I wonder if there’s space to put open pod air filters.


From the above photo and this photo, you can see the extractor seems covered with some heatshield material. Probably because it was a hot day in Sepang?


This is a cross section of the K3-VE engine for people to see the pistons inside and etcetra. If you look at the top part, you can see there’s two camshafts because it’s a DOHC engine.

    Hey, I read about MyVi in the Star and I thought I’ll check it out from the internet. Many thumbs up for your ‘little’ information! I realised that your blog has more meat than the Perodua website (shame on them!). I was thinking of getting a new local car, and there’s no doubt which one I’ll be getting now :) Just wanna say thanks for sharing the info!

    We have booked Myvi two weeks ago because we urgently needed a second car and thought a local car would ease the financial burden a bit. We were thinking of Kenari because of its economical fuel consumption but was informed that it would be a long wait and we didnt want a black car either which requires much more washing and cleaning which we busy people couldnt afford…ehm!. Then we got to know about MYvi. So we tot what the heck … let’s book it! If we didnt like it we could always go back to the Kenari. Since then I have been seaching the web for more information and then I stumbled on … guess who? Wow! What loads of work he must have put into this website. I am getting so much information from your website. THANKS! It is also getting me very excited. Hope we could view it tomorrow and decide. But most important, what do you think of the fuel consumption??

    between Picanto and MyVi, which is better? I like the safety feature for MyVi but the shape and colour selection not really my cup of tea compare to picanto. But picanto didn’t have dual air bags and ABS.

    Anyway, nice info you got here paul. Really help… Thanks!!!

    Definitely it looks good, but sometimes it appears more like a small version of Toyota Avanza. But, I am quite sad that the price is still quite high for a 1 or 1.3 liter and not to forget Perodua is exempted from Import Tax (on CKD), Excise Duty and Sales Tax. Such previlege is not even offered to Proton (which has to pay at least 50% from the normal rate)! As such, Perodua should consider of lowering its price…
