Perodua Alza vs Wuling Bingo

Verdict

At RM62,500, the Perodua Alza costs RM5,300 less than the RM67,800 Wuling Bingo and brings seven seats, a 2,750 mm wheelbase and ASA 3.0 braking from 4-120 km/h. It is the practical family choice, though its 137-litre boot is tight with all rows in use. The Bingo suits a smaller household that can charge: its 31.9-kWh battery is rated for 273 km, while 150 Nm beats the Alza’s 138 Nm and its 395-litre boot is far larger. But it has only four seats and no listed autonomous braking or lane-keeping assist.

Alza

Pick the Perodua Alza if you need seven seats, rear air-con vents and the extra active-safety systems for family duties.

Bingo

Pick the Wuling Bingo if four seats are enough and you want a 273-km EV with a 395-litre boot, 50-kW DC charging and lower annual road tax.
