The Perodua Axia has been officially launched in Singapore recently by Perocom Auto, the official dealer of Perodua cars in the country. The introduction of the Axia in Singapore comes more than a year after the small hatchback was launched in its home country in September 2014. As for the price, there’s no point beating around the bush – it is SGD$75,888 or RM231,827.
For that money, you’ll be getting a Perodua Axia 1.0 Advance (AT), which is the range-topping variant in the Axia line-up. By comparison, the same variant will set you back RM41,967 (solid) or RM42,377 (metallic) in Malaysia (OTR with insurance). Power still comes from the company’s new all-aluminium 1KR-DE2 1.0 litre mill, with output rated at 66 hp at 6,000 rpm and 90 Nm at 3,600 rpm, mated to a four-speed auto.
The price listed is inclusive of Singapore’s Goods and Services Tax (GST) and Certificate of Entitlement (COE), which explains the ludicrous amount. However, each purchase includes a five-year/100,000 km warranty, plus a free five-year/100,000 km maintenance service.
Additionally, if you opt to register the car as an off peak car, the price tag can be offset by up to SGD$17,000 (RM51,925). Doing so will unfortunately forfeit your right to the COE rebate of SGD$40,000 (RM122,177).
After a bit of researching in Carbase.my, we discovered that for the price of a Perodua Axia in Singapore, you can purchase, in Malaysia, a brand-new Mazda MX-5, BMW 120i M Sport, Volvo S60 1.6 T4, Subaru WRX 2.0 CVT and even a Mercedes-Benz A 200.

AI-generated Summary ✨
Comments mostly highlight the high cost of cars in Singapore due to expensive COE and taxes, emphasizing that despite the high price, public transportation is highly efficient and widely used. Several remarks compare Singapore's high salaries and living standards to Malaysia's, suggesting that expensive cars are more affordable for Singaporeans. Others criticize the high car prices as unnecessary or exaggerate the burden on Malaysians, with some noting that owning a car in Singapore is considered a sign of wealth, and that government policies intentionally keep car ownership costly. A few comments mention the export of the Perodua Axia to other markets, and some sarcastically comment on the pricing, political implications, or question why anyone would buy such a car in Singapore. Overall, sentiments appreciate Singapore’s infrastructure and income but criticize the car prices as excessive.
