Ahead of an official debut, several photos of the facelifted Toyota Avanza for the Indonesian market have made their way onto various social media platforms. The refreshed MPV appears to draw inspiration from its larger sibling, the Vellfire, as its exterior design so subtly suggests.
At the front, you’ll find a bolder face that is highlighted by an aggressive bumper with concaved sections for the fog lamps. Also present is a set of two-tier headlamps that are separated in the middle by body-coloured trim, similar to the Vellfire.
Between the clusters is a chrome piece, which is something you’ll spot on the pre-facelift model as well. A new grille with more prominent slats is also part of the makeover.
Meanwhile, the rear end has been tidied up thanks to new red reflectors that are slimmer in shape. These wrap around the centre chrome piece that leads into the revised vertical taillights. Further down, the additional reflectors have been reshaped and positioned near small “slits” in the corners of the rear bumper.
As before, the Avanza will be offered as standard or Veloz versions, with the latter sporting tweaked front and rear ends to project a sportier look.
Moving inside, the general layout of the dashboard is almost unchanged from before, although there are more upmarket features. For starters, there’s now buttons and a screen for the car’s air-conditioning system instead of two dials, keyless start, nicer materials and an improved head unit.
Based on the leaks, the new Avanza (sold in Indonesia) will be available with a 1.3 litre (96.5 PS/120 Nm) or 1.5 litre engine (104 PS/136 Nm), paired with a five-speed manual or four-speed automatic.
In Indonesia, the Avanza is produced by Daihatsu and sold as the Xenia, which will also get the same visual updates.

I’m only choose toyota, no perodua all kinds of things. Sorry perodua. Toyota are more reliable than it’s subsidiary, perodua
Toyota avanza or Suzuki ertiga
Aiyoo yoo, Habislah Perodua for now and Perodua Salesmen attitude that gives lousy design for Perodua Models as well as giving unsafe Perodua models which they are snobbish. This Alza can increase price slightly but no VSC…..aiyooooooo.
No one buys Perodua for now. Salesmen all menangis. This Perodua Slogan is known as Building Rebadging Dangerous Cars Makes People Ruskier. Wishes all the worst luck to drive Perodua Cars. Before I talk about Rebadging Perodua Models and Lazy Perodua Designers, let’s talk about Perodua Services, including other Perodua Models.
First of all, The reason is because everyone knows that Perodua Service is very terrible in which many Perodua owners have feedback many times about service but still never improve at all. As comparing to Proton, When many Proton owners service their car, it takes few hours to complete their vehicles service whereas when Perodua owners service their car, it takes longer time from 9 am to 5 pm to complete their service. I am very sure knows that everyone feels very upset and fed up all the Perodua Company.
Next up, talk about the quality of Perodua Plant in Malaysia, why no one ever buys Perodua because everyone also knows that after Perodua Assembly Team in Malaysia finish assembling the Perodua parts for Perodua models, they always didn’t even bother to check whether it has been secured or not which makes most of Malaysians who drives Perodua feels very riskier. Or either, Perodua Assembly Team in Malaysia always use the fake parts to install for Perodua models as many people complain that got many problems for Perodua models after they bought for several months just like there are incidents happens for Proton since the year in 2014. But now, why Proton Company is improving because Proton Company are always training to their Proton Assembly Team to make sure that they are using the right parts to install for Proton models. As well as, Proton Assembly Team also needs to makes sure that they usually always check whether the parts has been secured or not after finishing manufacturing, assembling Proton parts for Proton models. This is to show that what Proton Company has improving so far and better than Perodua.
Besides that, Just launching new Perodua Alza Facelift several months ago, there are no differences at all between new Perodua Alza Second Facelift and Perodua Alza First Facelift that launched in 2013 but only replacing the front bumper which looks like it copied from Sienta bumper with giving ABS without VSC, HSC, EBD as well as no 6 airbags but giving 2 airbag. Anyway, Malaysians knows that Perodua Alza is the biggest failure in Malaysia. Malaysians only hardly see few units of New Second Facelift Alza on the road. Not only that, if you drive on the road, very sure that there are also not many Axia or Bezza on the road because both Axia or Bezza have two airbags without VSC. No wonder everywhere in Malaysia, there are many Vios, City, Proton Persona or Saga on the road. Just look at Toyota and Proton, why UMW Toyota and Proton Malaysia, are already improving as comparing to the last four or five years because Toyota Malaysia now having advanced safety features for all Toyota models to make sure that UMW Toyota won’t make sacrifice for people lives again but except for Avanza as UMW Toyota still giving 2 airbags without VSC for Avanza. However, there will be also either upcoming Avanza which will be launching next year. New Avanza also comes with VSC, HSC and other safety features but still giving two airbags for new Avanza. Also, don’t forget, UMW Toyota has been upgrading up to 7 speed automatic for Vios, upcoming Yaris, Altis, Innova, and etc.
Finally, our topic is about of what Perodua has produced Perodua Vehicles for the past many years?
Everyone boycott Perodua, why? Because Perodua Company didn’t even bother to design their engines and transmission by themselves. As well as Perodua Company are always very lazy to design their Perodua models which already happens for the past 20 years until now. They just rebadge logo, that’s all. Just look at Perodua Aruz, everyone knows that Perodua just rebadge logo on Toyota Rush because interior looks the same as Rush as well as exterior looks the same as Rush. Moreover, Perodua Aruz will not be fresh looking when start selling next year on 2019 after launching new Toyota Rush in Malaysia. If Perodua can design a new Perodua model by themselves instead of rebadging on other brand models, including making their own Perodua Engines and Transmission, everyone will surely buy Perodua Models design by Malaysia. So why don’t Perodua just follow what Proton has done for the past many years.
Until Today, Perodua Company still giving dinosaur engines with outdated transmission in which they never even bother to improve their Perodua models as all Perodua Models still using 4 speed auto and surely no one ever buys Perodua Models because everyone feels that it is underpowered, even aunties and uncles will also know as well.
In conclusion, Malaysians rather buy Proton and Toyota. The reason is that because Proton and Toyota is actually improving their company itself as Proton, Toyota are giving more tech and advanced safety features for Proton X70, as well as upcoming Proton models. In addition to that, Proton Exora have ESC, ABS and 4 airbags vs Perodua Alza have 2 airbags and ABS without ESC. Moreover, Proton Service Company gives better service while Perodua Service Company gives terrible service. Anyway, no need to write good comments about Perodua for the upcoming Perodua articles in paultan as everyone knows about bad service for Perodua, copycat Perodua Models and Perodua will never improve at all. This is to show what Perodua has done for the past many years with garbage achievement. Besides that, Malaysians already know that Perodua regard Malaysian lives as dirt and don’t care whether you die or not. This Perodua – Building Cars People First should be named as Perodua – Building Rebadging Dangerous Cars Makes People Ruskier because a car of this price like Alza and Axia, with no VSC is a risk to you and your family with rebadging Dahaitsu Models as well as giving lousy design of Perodua Myvi and boring design of Bezza.
Malaysians have now dignity. they know Perodua are huge cheats. Charge so much for the car, yet compromise on our lives and safety of the family.
How Perodua? Still no VSC? Giving Bad Service? All over the world for example like Fiat comes with VSC as standard! As well as Proton, including other carmakers in Malaysia and other world giving better services than Perodua.
Now, John Minum Teh 8X, Pilihanraya Kalah Teruk and John May 9 Nangis are also hiding like tikus. They will always come here and say Perodua are always trusted as having better safety for Perodua Models and Perodua have better RV than Proton. But All Malaysians are very sure that no one ever buys Unsafe Lousy Perodua Models as their RV jatuh like hell and Perodua Safety is lacking. 11 months time, 2017 Myvi, you can buy RM41k, drop from RM55k. In 11 months, the car can drop RM28k. Now people say can even get the 2017 Myvi model for even RM19k. Wah! drop RM6k in 11 months!!!
“No one buys Perodua for now. Salesmen all menangis.” But when look at sales data Perodua is No.1, followed by Toyota 2nd and Proton 3rd. If no one buys Perodua then I can conclude that all car manufactures already closed their shops and there will be no cars on the road since all of them already habis if Perodua also habis.
Cakap panjang like telling fairytale bedtime story to kids
Wall of bullshits. Ignore terus!
Do you know that, if people still buy Perodua Myvi, it is not safe and not worth to drive because Perodua Myvi doesn’t have any temperature Engine gauge which engine can easily terbakar. Moreover, low spec and mid spec Myvi doesn’t even have any HSC plus low spec and mid spec Myvi have only 4 airbags. Moreover, Alza, Bezza and Axia have only 2 airbags without VSC. These Alza, Bezza, Axia including Myvi are most likely to kill their customers lives if they buy Perodua. So overall, everyone knows already that they are not going to touch Perodua as Perodua has been cheated for the past 20 years without any Perodua’s promises to give better safety for Perodua.
you know that the toyota rush will be assembled by perodua factory right ? so i guess it’s not that reliable after all…
I own a toyota c-hr, cbu model.. not a locally assemblied.. what is your problem?
Your Avanza and Rush also manufactured by Perodua in Rawang.
At last i afford to buy vellfire. Lols.
Potential buyers should wait for the Perodua rebadge, otherwise their Avanza RV will drop kaw-kaw later. Rush owners edy suffered this misfortune. On Facebook can see them cursing Toyota, Perodua & Aruz.
No lah, Aruz owners already suffered this misfortune cause Aruz doesn’t have Blind Spot Monitor, Rear Cross Traffic Alert, Panaromic View Monitor, Digital Video Recorder, 360 degree camera. On Paultan or even Facebook, could see lots of people cursing Perodua and including Aruz.
No such thing as Avanza rebadged.. Perodua got it’s own Daihatsu based to rebadged..
Actually, he’s right!
Alamak… not sure how the plastics feel like in real-life, but from these images they look like they’re on par with cheap moulded plastics from the 1980s..
You should take a look at Proton’s plastic parts that discoloured and peeling paint after couple of years (Waja, Gen2, Persona).
I don’t have that problem with my Gen2 CPS, somemore it park outside hot sun everyday for 10 years. Neither do I see Persona1 have any problems. What I do see is Mivi 1st gen have plenty of dashboard and windscreen cracking after park under hot sun.
(Like) Toyota Avanza with HSC, VSC, ABS, EBD and 2 airbags
(Dislike) Perodua Alza with 2 airbags, ABS and EBD
design macam alphard
Vellfire
Buroks
Ooo not bad. Baby Vellfire. Toyota wanna clear stock. Better look than rush.
This is not beauty but definitely beast
Does the new Avanza come with VSC?
Lousy but will sell well here…
Bring here automatically no sales!
Let the bash begins!
Habisla Exora john!
Proton fans said, exora is C segment. Avanza B segmenf. Can’t compare
It is not from proton fans, segmentation comes from European Commission, obviously P1 basher didn’t read
Whoaaaa…! That bumper sure could increase drag. While automakers look for zero drag if they could Toyota in the other hand look for it. Design first, effiency last.
Apa nak bangga dengan Perodua? Cuma tumpang glamour Toyota je. Cakap orang lain tapi sendiri tak tau malu pun. Cerminkan diri sikit.
Perodua cakap orang lain apa? Cakaplah betul2
Tanyalah Si Rashid yang selama ni pandang rendah pada Perodua kerana rebadged… skrang dia sendiri rebadged kereta dari China … hahahah
Who said anything about perodua?
VellNova! (Vellfire + Innova)
Looking at this actually reminded me of exora. How is that even possible?
Toyota copied Exora. Duh!
Looking at this actually reminded me of exora’s death. How is that even possible john?
Another forgotten car that nobody cares.
Aruz
Wow! The face looks like a Vellfire!!! Aggressive!
What is the difference between new rush and new avanza?
Same underlying engine, transmission, rear drive, frame….
it doesn’t matter what changes hav been made…
there is no MT offered anymore in MY market…
can totally forget about this brand n it sister brands…
123. 3 times face for this model. When will launch 3rd Gen Avanza. So bored with Toyota this day. Always FL.
All New Avanza will be revealed in 2021 and launched after that. Toyota Indonesia forecast that for year 2019, Avanza sales is expected to overtake Rush sales.
Right now, for indo auto mkt, mitsu expander is no. 1 flw closely by Rush / Terios at no. 2
Wow, another cash cow for UMW Toyota. This car will sell well. Just like our P2 Axia and Myvi and Aruz.
People trust Japanese Toyota quality as opposed to some China made junk that was officially rejected in ALL First World countries.
Avanza sold in first world countries?
Actually, I remember going to South Africa in 2011 on a business trip. I was speaking to my company’s sales rep there, and we were talking cars. I happen to like the practicality of Avanza, so when I saw one on the road, I was quick to say I liked the car. She was quick to say she hated it. I asked her why. She said it was butt ugly.
To each his own, I guess.
But then again, 20,000 bookings for X70 should send Honda salesman into cave la. Like MU supporters… kikiki
A Toyota Rush for 70k… good value
Looks better than the P2 Aruz.
habis lah Proton fanboy. No more modal! Now everything also Toyota.
In 2018, Toyota Malaysia can have higher sales than Prootn despite Proton having thousands of Government orders.
You forgetting that UMW also getting orders from the government? If not for Hilux only, UMW sales would look very bad this year compared to previous years.
Proton also getting orders from the goverment inspira,preve
My eyes got raped just seeing this monstrosity.
No engine talking please. It’s just facelift.
ugly. overdesign..since 2nd gen
Nice facelift. Normally after latest facelift, toyot* will introduced totally new design…hmmm
adik vellfire kurang vitamin
This is correct design of Toyota, same as GT86. No like lousy design such as Vios, Altis, Camry, Vellfire, Alphard, Hilux and so on
Yes because the tyres are round
No. Actually New Avanza, GT86, Vios, Altis, Camry, Hilux and so on looks better.
Avanza, Rush and GT86 only good design. The others lousy.
KECELAKAAN SERIUS!!!

nice.. very high keras looking MPV
This officially makes the Avanza the most facelifted car in history…
No, Innova is the most facelifted car in history as it facelifted 3 times, Avanza just 2 times
Toyota is recalling approximately 700 2019 C-HR crossovers that are at risk of, in the worst-case scenario, the rear wheels completely detaching. The recall has not yet been announced by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), but Toyota said in a press release that it will begin notifying owners in early November.
