Verdict

The Perodua Bezza costs RM34,580 against RM90,600 for the Toyota Vios, leaving a substantial RM56,020 in your pocket. It is also thriftier on paper at 4.4 L/100 km versus 5.2 L/100 km, and its 508-litre boot is 33 litres larger. The Vios is the much more capable and better-equipped car, however: 104 hp and 138 Nm beat 67 hp and 91 Nm, while a CVT, six airbags, stability control and pre-collision braking make its higher price easier to understand. For strict budget motoring, take the Bezza; for safety and daily ease, the Vios is the stronger choice.

Bezza

Pick the Perodua Bezza if RM34,580 pricing, 4.4 L/100 km rated consumption and a 508-litre boot matter more than automatic convenience and active safety aids.

Vios

Pick the Toyota Vios if you can afford the RM56,020 premium for 104 hp, a CVT automatic, six airbags and pre-collision braking.
