A new Perodua Myvi could see the light of day as early as the fourth quarter of this year, if a report by The Sun is to be believed. Research house MIDF Research predicted the arrival of the next-gen hatchback as a catalyst for strong sales in the automotive sector for the second half of 2017.
The ballpark provided may seem like guesswork, but the current model is due for a replacement, given that it’s already six years old – the first Myvi was also discontinued after six years. Besides, the expected base for the new car, the latest Toyota Passo/Daihatsu Boon, has been out on the market for a year now, so a Perodua version will come sooner rather than later.
With that out of the way, let’s talk specifics. The next Myvi is expected to use a range of new 1.3 litre and 1.5 litre Toyota NR engines, including the 94 hp/121 Nm 1NR-VE 1.3 litre Dual VVT-i mill used in the Bezza. Those engines will almost certainly be matched to either a five-speed manual gearbox or a four-speed electronic automatic transmission (E-AT).
Also expected to be inherited from the Bezza are the new technologies introduced on the new sedan, including keyless entry, push button start, an Eco Idle automatic engine start/stop system and Vehicle Stability Control (VSC) on range-topping variants.
Don’t discount the availability of driver assists like autonomous emergency braking and lane departure warning, either – Perodua has been seen trialling a Daihatsu Move Custom with the Smart Assist II system in downtown Kuala Lumpur before, so it’s not as far-fetched a technology as you’d think.

Plus – Dual VVT-i mill, keyless entry, push button start, an Eco Idle automatic engine start/stop system & VSC on range-topping variants.
Big Minus – 4-speed auto.
Tak payah pening, tak payah fikir.
Beli je Myvee…
Please launch Alza 1st instead of Myvi since Alza already nearly a decade old. Some more Alza will have more demand compared to Myvi as people will look for Bezza or Axia but skipped Myvi
New Kenari more demand. Plz enter…
It’s Otw bruh sabar jerr
Beli Kia rio je lah. Lagi berbaloi, lawa, interior space dia pun luas. Performance apatah lagi memang superb.
First! and the design is ugly
Can’t agree more . The design itself buruk gila kot. Cuba compare dengan kia rio 2017 ni fuuhh beza teruk. Come on myvi youcan do better than this lulz
1st gen myvi is the best…it becomes uglier when replacement model coming out
Iriz lah. Betul2 Onz!
i owned an Iriz and i still chose 1st gen myvi
Whatever you claimed you have, others also can claim, lol
Lol! why not Iriz?
Problematic bro
More blood for the blood god! More axles to be sacrificed!
Axle? no one is talking about it. It is still selling good. Proton?… sampai company pun terjual.
You rate company or its product? Pipu dun drive the company but the car
Oh shiet! Booked Iriz..gonna cancel
Keep the iriz. U stand a better chance of ur car staying intact in 1 piece.
Chill bro. Try check Kia rio pulak. Sumpah nice gila bro. Harga murah. Performance baik. Design nice. Memang worth it gila harga rm79,888 tu.
Repeating look of an ancient Kelisa design except in a bigger mould.
with this car, proton will be totally KO’d. there is no way they can compete with MyVi same way Bezza killed their Sagaand persona.
Saga3 & Persona still selling wor. Meanwhile new change Biza not seen yet on roads..
Still with 4 speed…kamonnnn we want 6 speed auto..
not this model
Latest road hogger
If you are poor and can’t afford Jazz (even the lowest spec) this one for you.
Can see many orders from penang, Ipoh, kepong.
Guys buying & driving Myvi confirm gay. A poor gay.
Full spec RM60k
Low spec without ABS, VSC, crash test 3 stars with price RM 45k?
Fyi it’s 5 stars
The blue one have nicer front design. Pink one not really interesting.
Hope Perodua can do to this 3rd gen Myvi as how Mercedes-Benz did to its own 3rd gen A-Class ;P
Perodua is still hoping that the Myvi can bring mountain breaking sales amount for the company. It is a little bit too much of Myvi already? Or isn’t it?
Maybe some extra safety features will help?
Wait a minute..this new look Myvi looks like an improvised Kelisa…looks wise.Be careful,Jeremy Clarkson ..if he gets his hand on this…will hoist it to a height of 100 ft,n drop it dead smashing.
Anyway,Perodua will get a reasonable response to this new model to replace the ageing Myvi..12 years on.
Hopefully the new Myvi will come with better safety features and stronger body, unlike the current ‘Tin Milo’ structure. VSC, 4 air-bags, lane departure warning, etc, should be standard across all variants.
Hahaha in Malaysian market? I dont think so. Compared to Jazz, Jazz is better. But Jazz with Rio? Big big differences. Rio 6 airbags, VSC, ABS, EBD, stability control, traction control, HSA
Perodua better rebadged the new suzuki swift.
Takpelah.. saya mau tunggu new preve hybrid 1.5TGDi-E combined output of 220hp and 320nm.. hehe
Tunggulah ko. Rebadge SUV pun nak tunggu sampai 2 tahun.
It is worth to wait
Jonathan, any news when the new Alza will be introduced?
I have heard the compact MPV may be discontinued and they will introduce the compact SUV line. Just my fice cents
They will continue
best ni tapi kalau compare dengan Kia Rio mana lagi best?
What kind of question like this? Kia rio compare dengan benda ni? Bro, kia rio harga pon berbaloi, kereta pon cantik, nenek aku kata nak hadiah kan ke aku pulak tu
lol obviously buruk gila design baru ni. Kia rio memang lagi better lah.
Highest spec 60k? Tambah skit 13k bole dapat Kia Rio kot, specs lagi tip top, lagi sportier ngan rim 17. Shut up!
Myvi lagi best… Hahaha
Rio
Alah kenapa yang baru ni buruk? Baru ingat nak amek myvi. Amek KIA Rio jelah gini.
Jangan ambik myvi. Ambik KIA Rio je lah. Murah, lawa & paling penting warranty 5 years tanpa mileage cap!
Betul tu. Warranty 5 tahun tanpa mileage. Lepas tu guaranteed better car depreciation dgn Value 5 tuu
sabar… tungguuuu. nanti menyesal gilerrr. heheh
Agree. Ugly design. I do think Kia Rio is a better choice for you.
Design will better than Rio and Polo ..be patient my friend.. you will be surprise :)
Compare to new Kia Rio, which one is better?
Obviously Kia Rio. Myvi new design looked like a kermit frog car.
Tengah berbelah bagi juga nak yang mana. Minyak mana lagi jimat rasanya?
sabar.. tungguuu… nanti menyesal gilerr… heheh
Alah buruklah yang baru ni. Baru ingat nak amek myvi. Amek kia rio jelah macam ni.
Kan? Design dia kurang lah. Macam yang sebelum sebelum ni je. Takda improvement langsung. Better beli Kia Rio. Lagi berbaloi kot.
so fast???
not 10 years yet already move to new model?
Sudah kena tapau’ed by Iriz
12 years oredi… average monthly sales maintain at 4k – 5k. Iriz less than 1k. dun believe ka….?? bacalah. heheh
Design dia kelakar dok. Lagi lawa design Rio
tunngguu….
Buruk. Design kia rio tetap power!
Betul tu bro! Makin lama makin buruk design dia. #shameonyoumyvi
Will they finally use a new chassis or maintain the same one from first gen Myvi? Based on the gearbox I’d say this new gen Myvi will have the same old chassis with new bumpers and lights.
Any idea whether it will be getting the EEV incentives with this new model? It would be interesting to see how it’s pricing plays out.
Apa ni? Kereta Mr Bean ke? Kenapa makin lama makin buruk design myvi ni? Kalau nak compare dengan KIA Rio ni aku rasa Rio jauh lagi bagus dengan spec yang power & harga yang murah
Kan? Macam kereta Mr. Bean je. Baik beli Kia Rio baru tu. Lagi lawa kot.
Haha kan? Macam kelisa pun ada. Come on, team design dia takde idea sangat ke? Market research tak buat?
Lawa lagi design Kia Rio, spend lebih sikit dah boleh dapat kereta yang lagi cantik. Power pun powerrr
Yang dislike ni mesti tak mampu beli Kia Rio. Dah lah myvi ni buruk!
Ahahaha nampak sangat bijak percaya gambar tuhhhh tu edit lahhh bang. Ang
Lol k drama influence is strong ova here. Just cos korean car. All going for design better la, look better la, but inside slow engine+heavy chasis=underpowered=high fuel consumption.
Here’s the news from an inside source. It’ll be based on the Toyota Corolla IM. ESC & ABS on all models & AEB in the top spec variant. prices expected to be up to 5K more than the current prices. Still 4 speed auto
I’m interested to know who gave you that info
Please update & upgrade Alza 1st. Alza has been in the market longer than Myvi.
This is odd
There’s plenty of comments here on getting a new Kia Rio
Is this a new marketing tactic by Kia Malaysia perhaps
i) If can buy Kia, majority will not pick P1 or P2
ii) Kia Rio? Just don’t. The fuel bill will kill you
iii) Wait till it finally launches before judging it, we’re always so quick to judge
Had a MyVi 1.5 for 5 years plus now
+ No problems at all (~100k kms so far)
+ Service is cheap ~ RM 200 at SC
+ Fuel is very efficient – my fuelly average now is 5.9 l/100km
– Noisy (NVH, rattles)
– Jumpy
– No VSC
– 2 airbags
I don’t really mind if it’s a 4 speed auto if it’s quiet smooth and efficient
If they can fix all those minus points, they’ll have another winner
Myvi yang rupa macam kelisa rip off? No no no. Done some research based on comments sini, kia rio looks stylish, spec pun not bad. For rm73k, should be worth it.
Is it just me or this new myvi look more smaller
Than before?
It’s just u
It’s 2017 and 2018 is coming in a couple of months time so isn’t time to give up on 4 speed AT and go for 5 speed AT or even 6 speed AT?
Or a CVT. Toyota do know how to make pretty good CVT transmissions
The back side of this car look like a box, i think it’s better to take the new Kia Rio, smaller size, easier to park anywhere, you can even cut easily on the road because it’s small. Easy for girls to drive anywhere they want to. For me Kia Rio is better compared to this.
just an edited pic only maa … wait for a real one. hahaha
Macam kereta mr.bean
It looks hideous. Hahahaha. Even Iriz looks better. Compared to Mazda 2, Jazz or even the new Kia Rio, i would say Rio looks way wayy better
hahaha…. just wait lah bro. edited pic oso percaya bulat2 ka
