Perodua Bezza 1.0 G MT vs 1.0 G AT
Verdict
This is a very simple Bezza decision: RM34,580 for the 1.0 G MT, RM36,580 for the 1.0 G AT, with the RM2,000 gap buying only the conventional automatic gearbox. Both use the same 998 cc petrol engine with 67 hp and 91 Nm, both have a 508-litre boot, two airbags and a 4-star ASEAN NCAP rating. The manual is thriftier at 4.4 L/100km against 4.7 L/100km, so on paper the cheaper car is the purer budget buy. The auto is for convenience, not extra performance or kit.
Pick the Perodua Bezza 1.0 G MT if you want the lowest price and the better fuel figure, and you are happy with a manual gearbox.
Pick the Perodua Bezza 1.0 G AT if the conventional automatic gearbox is worth RM2,000 to you in daily Malaysian traffic.
