Myvi is the best!!
Standing 1,3-liter engine, the "Perodua myvi" remains the first choice when it comes to purchasing a car. Especially at the entrance, most of the "Malay" seem to address this model. I drive myself. And I'll tell you what it's like to drive themselves, after three months.
I think that's the price of RM40, 000 (giving and receiving) for a small car like this is a bit too expensive. But, the more points of myvi spacious inside its compartments. The interior can even respond to a huge foot-6, I think. Your head will never hit the roof more disadvantages.
Driving Experience at the "myvi is like driving a" Mini Cooper. Control, it is to turn more effectively, with his little size. Speaking of the size of the car is to park it relatively easy. Personally, I do not think need to change gears from reverse to drive more than doubled. I think the biggest advantage of a 1.3-liter car, may have the advantage of small size (not the decent power).
You need every 350-400 km for RM60 (give and take "fill petrol RON95). Always busy OverDrive application only when necessary, take the tire inflate 220kPa, with the" myvi "" most of the time on the road, what some of the practices, the statistics are, the price tag is RM60 fuel. For part of overdrive, the car is driven 00-60 miles per hour (Overdrive off). More than speed, I was still running on overdrive. The long lines you can use your "save a lot of myvi. Driving a great distance, like 200 km non-stop refers to a road, half of your tank.
Acceleration for the 'Myvi' is rather "poor. "As he works on the automatic transmission, which could explain. But in most cases I find that the transition to the" OD off means a ton. And I do not rely on this for passing cars. Automatic cars are a little more comfort and are suitable for road trips and traffic jams. Note that I was driving cars with manual transmission 1.3-liter displacement, where the acceleration is force majeure.
Overall for the price, comfort, handling and performance, a test is worthwhile on "myvi. He has his own reasons for one of the top national car here understood in Malaysia. Although I will never understand, the motto says on the back that "Building Cars People First”. Good luck.

Facts you need to know about Perodua Myvi
My thoughts about Myvi...
Here’s what I gathered about the new Perodua Myvi. Since the media test drive, alot of things speculated about the Perodua Myvi has been answered by the team at Perodua themselves.
Engine
The 1 liter Myvi which is the Perodua Myvi 1.0SR will be using the EJ-VE 1 liter 3 cylinder DOHC engine, an upgraded version of the EJ-DE 1 liter 3 cylinder DOHC found in the Kenari/Kelisa. When I say upgraded, I mean it comes with DVVT variable valve timing. This EJ-VE DVVT engine is also found in export models of the Perodua Kelisa intended for the UK market.
As a comparison, the 1.3 Toyota Passo/Daihatsu Boon uses the same K3-VE as our 1.3 Perodua Myvi but the 1.0 Toyota Passo/Daihatsu Boon uses the 1KR-FE 1.0 engine with variable valve timing instead of the EJ-VE that our 1.0 Perodua Myvi has. This is probably an updated 1 liter engine design as compared to the EJ series that we’re still using.
The 1.3 liter Myvi, available in 4 trim levels (1.3SX, 1.3EZ, 1.3SXi, 1.3EZi) is using the K3-VE engine found in the Kembara DVVT, which has variable valve timing. I suspect YRV Turbo halfcuts with the K3-VET in them will be even more popular now
Power output for the 1 liter EJ-VE is 56hp and the 1.3 liter K3-VE produces 85hp. As a Comparison, the Honda Jazz 1.5 VTEC produces 110hp and the Jazz 1.5 i-DSI produces 87hp too. So you can see, the variable valve timing feature on the K3-VE really makes it comparable to 1.5 liter engines not equipped with any form of variable valve timing.
Transmission/Gearbox
There are manual and automatic transmission available. The manual is a 5-speed while the auto is a 4-speed with overdrive. This should help with the highway cruising fuel consumption.
Specifications/Trim Levels
There are four models available. The prices shown are including insurance.
Model Specs Price
Myvi 1.0SR 1.0, Manual RM41,200
Myvi 1.3SX 1.3, Manual RM44,755/RM45,300
Myvi 1.3EZ 1.3, Auto RM47,781/RM48,300
Myvi 1.3SXi 1.3, Manual, Dual Airbags, ABS RM47,781/RM48,300
Myvi 1.3EZi 1.3, Auto, Dual Airbags, ABS RM50,781/RM51,300
Looks like the price for the 1.3SXi and the 1.3EZ is the same. If you could only afford that much and not the 1.3EZi, would you choose an automatic transmission or the dual airbags and ABS?
The 1.3 cars are available in all seven colours but the 1.0 is only available in black, gold and silver. All the 1.3 versions have 14 inch alloy rims while the 1.0 only has steel rims. Looks like the 1.0SR is the ultra-budget version of the Myvi.
Quality Control Standards
QC, or rather the lack of QC is the problem plaguing Malaysian car manufacturers. Perodua is definitely much better than Proton in terms of quality control. And with recently being commissioned to manufacture the Toyota Avanza for Toyota, it’s factory’s QC had been beefed up so that it matches Toyota’s standards. Defect rates are currently at 0.2, which means 2 defects per 10 cars. This is a huge improvement from rate of 2 to 2.5 per car 10 years ago.
The higher spec Myvi has foglamps on the bumper but the 1.0 model does not. The 1.0 model also has wheelcaps covering the ugly steel rims but the 1.3 model has proper alloy wheels. Oh yes, check out the side mirrors for the Myvi, they have signal lamps on them. Kind of cool Yes, yes, I’m easily amused okay!
