Verdict
At RM62,500, the seven-seat Perodua Alza costs RM5,300 less than the four-seat Wuling Bingo at RM67,800, and it is the practical Malaysian family choice with a 2,750-mm wheelbase, rear air vents and 5-star ASEAN NCAP rating. The Bingo answers with electric running, 150 Nm from its motor, a 31.9-kWh battery rated for 273 km, plus a far larger 395-litre boot. Pick on use case: people-moving and active safety favour the Alza; urban EV use and luggage space favour the Bingo.
Pick the Perodua Alza if you need seven seats, rear air vents and ASA 3.0 pre-collision braking with pedestrian detection.
Pick the Wuling Bingo if four seats are enough and you want a 31.9-kWh EV with 273 km rated range and a 395-litre boot.
