It’s strange that there’s even talk about a new Perodua Bezza when the company’s next all-new product – the 2023 Perodua Axia D74A – isn’t even out yet, and the current compact sedan has a waiting list that goes up to a year. But there’s chatter originating from research analysts.
It sounds improbable for a company working overtime to fulfil outstanding orders. Also, Perodua president and CEO Datuk Seri Zainal Abidin Ahmad had previously said that the carmaker has the capacity to roll out one full model change (FMC, all-new generation) and two minor change models (MC, facelifts) per year. When asked at today’s 2023 outlook event if that’s still the case, he said yes.
“Still valid. Our current capability is one FMC and two MC (per year). Because of Covid-19 – 2019, 2020, 2021 – it was disrupted. Last year was our recovery, this year we’ll go back to pre-pandemic levels in terms of capacity,” the P2 chief declared.
There you go, no new Bezza this year, but the next-generation Axia is now open for booking and the launch is just around the corner – full official details here.
Looking to sell your car? Sell it with Carro.
I suspect the facelift for this year will be Aruz?
P2 penipu scalper, in the past RM 50k can get you full spec Myvi. Now P2 downgraded buyers from Bsegment to Asegment. Shame on you for insulting buyers P2!

Cukurrlah Proton Persona Lipas (Lipasona) menarik nafas lega. Pheww!!
Patut keluar segmen b sedan.. 1.0 turbo pun canteekkk.. kasi ngelabah semua lipasona.. city.. bios..
Only left Aruz for MC. With the target 314K volume, it’s quite possible a sedan (Bezza), new B-segment sedan or SUV. Else they won’t put such a big target despite knowing recession is coming in.
Gawat x efek rakyat Malaysia. Rakyat kita kaya-raya mcm hari2 raya. Kereta beli mcm beli biskut. Besepah2 smpi jem gila jln.
You mean you all actually think P2 will release another model to cannibalize Axia? like how some idiots releasing 5 models in a year?
You mean Mercedes?
Mercedes? Probably yes. The company loses its prestige after Chinaman becomes the biggest shareholder.
Nope, its Youngman Europestar. :p
I hope they bring back new RUSA model. MPV with sliding door. It will sell well. We need a small size 7 seater sliding door MPV. Pls bring back new RUSA with ADAS, 7 airbags.
It will cannibalize Alza
aduh….i already stand by my booking money for the B-segment SUV for this year le….
Overall Aruz on an older RWD underpining compare to Alza FWD new DNGA design.
Perodua Aruz require much improvement… however will the so called new Aruz be contradict Alza market segment?
