New Daihatsu Sirion launched in Indonesia – rebadged Perodua Myvi, 1.3L MT and AT, RM53k to RM56k

As reported, the new Daihatsu Sirion has been launched in Indonesia today. Like before, the rebadged Perodua Myvi is imported CBU from Malaysia and is available in the Republic with a sole 1.3L engine option, paired to either a five-speed manual or four-speed automatic. Just one trim level, priced at Rp 182.5 juta (RM52,655) for the MT or Rp 193.5 juta (RM55,819) for the AT.

That’s costlier than the Myvi 1.3L, which is priced from RM44,300 to RM48,300. The Indonesian-spec Sirion 1.3L has the appearance of the Myvi 1.5L as it has the latter’s two-tone 15-inch wheels and 2-DIN touchscreen head unit, but is otherwise largely similar to the Myvi 1.3 Premium X in kit count.

This means that the Sirion comes with LED headlamps, fog lamps, front and rear parking sensors, keyless entry and push start, leather-wrapped steering with audio/phone controls and rear seats with adjustable headrests, among other things. The new Myvi’s unique homegrown features – digital air-con controls with two memory settings and USB charger on the side of the driver’s seat – are there.

Safety wise, the new Sirion comes with ABS, EBD, VSC, rear seatbelt reminders and four airbags (dual front and side). The engine is the 1NR-VE 1.3 litre Dual VVT-i unit with 95 PS and 121 Nm, but it doesn’t come with our Myvi 1.3 Premium X’s eco-idle auto start-stop system. That’s a big jump from the previous Sirion, kit wise, even if it doesn’t reach the new Myvi’s price-equipment ratio.

The latest Myvi made it to our annual writer’s Top Five list. Find out more about the homegrown hero in our written and video reviews.

        Transfer of tech & knowledge from Japan to P2 truly commendable. New exciting P2 model is fully developed in-house by Perodua with the involvement of about 200 all local engineers, designers and testers.

            Perodua can do so well despite got no Government purchases. Proton in a year get so many Government purchases. Even PDRM orders about 8000 cars per annum from Proton.

            And yet, Perodua can sell 200,000 cars while Proton can only sell 70,000

            Soon with Indonesian orders, Perodua sales will skyrocket!!!!

          Discipline and Japanese ‘5S’ key to Perodua’s success

          Morita san said that Perodua plants practice Dojo, which means “home of practicing”, to maintain quality and service standards. The veteran boss explained that the company implemented a 5S workplace organisation method comprising five Japanese words – seiri (sort), seiton (set in order), seiso (shine), seiketsu (standardise) and shitsuke (sustain), to create a pleasant workplace for all.

          Such practice is part of Perodua’s initiatives in maintaining discipline, and it has turned out to be successful, Bernama quoted Morita as saying. He also advised the students to be open minded, ready to accept changes and to believe in their own ability to achieve success.

    Wow, even the Indonesians are now seeing the benefit of buying the Myvi aka Sirion.

    They know, it has a Toyota Vios VVTI engine. All Malaysians know this and this is why the car is a big success here.

    Now, Indonesians also following Malaysians and buying the new Sirion. They know Toyota/Daihatsu VVTI engine is time tested and proven and it is sold in over 200 countries globally.

    Our Campro? Only sold in Malaysia. China Geely? Only sold in China. China Geely cannot even sell in UK, US, Europe (European Union), Japan, Australia and NZ

    SO, Indonesians like Malaysians are wise. We buy cars that are time tested and have top notch quality
