Overview
The Perodua Aruz is a B-segment, seven-seat SUV with a 1.5 litre petrol engine, conventional automatic gearbox and two-row-plus-third-row cabin flexibility. It suits families who need occasional extra seats in a Perodua package rather than a smaller Ativa-sized SUV. The range starts from RM72,900 for the 1.5 X.
Aruz in 2026 — what's new
The Aruz carries on into 2026 with the same two-variant passenger-car range: 1.5 X and 1.5 AV. Its latest production update remains the 2025 change to a matte black grille, revised interior trim and alloys, with Vintage Brown replacing Electric Blue. In 2026, showroom activity centres on cash promotions, including RM3,500 and RM4,000 discounts, plus the Aruz Space concept, a KLIMS 2026 show car built to carry goods instead of passengers.

Which variant to buy
Most buyers should start with the 1.5 X at RM72,900. It already has the shared Aruz basics: a 1,496 cc petrol engine, 101 hp, conventional automatic transmission and seven seats. The 1.5 AV costs RM77,900, so the RM5,000 gap does not buy more power, a different gearbox or extra seats on paper. Pay more only if the AV’s equipment and trim differences in the showroom matter to you.

Perodua Aruz buyer's guides & reviews
Verdict
The Aruz has a very clear job in Perodua’s SUV line-up: seven seats. It sits above the compact Ativa and alongside the newer Traz in buyer consideration, but it has been around since 2019. It also costs more than the Ativa, which starts at RM62,500, while the Traz starts in the same neighbourhood at RM76,100. Buy it for the seating layout, not novelty.
