Perodua Myvi Available with Automatic Transmission

The stylish Myvi holds prime position in the three model line up from Perodua and is without a doubt one of Britain's best value super-minis. Available from as little as £6,599 (including £1000 cash back), the Perodua Myvi offers today's motorists an inexpensive car without compromising on specification.

Unbelievably, the Perodua Myvi is available in automatic transmission for only an additional £700 at £7,299 (including £1000 cash back) which represents exceptional value for money, particularly in the present economic climate. Great value automatics are hard to come by, but the Perodua Myvi EZi with its smooth four speed fully automatic transmission with switchable overdrive is perfect for a lively performance around town or out on the open road.

The Perodua Myvi EZi is equipped with the all important features you would expect from a new car which makes for a relaxing, comfortable drive. This includes air conditioning, four electric windows, electric mirrors, central locking, fully integrated radio/CD player and power steering. With dual airbags and ABS/EBD as standard safety features, the Perodua Myvi also offers complete peace of mind whilst driving.

Stylish and very sophisticated, the Perodua Myvi EZi has a number of external features that you may not expect from a car with such a small price tag; body coloured bumpers, door handles and mirrors along with integral indicators plus a choice of free metallic and high gloss paint finishes. Inside, the Perodua Myvi is incredibly spacious with excellent legroom and can seat five adults comfortably as well as leaving enough space for luggage.

For those consumers looking for an economical car, look no further than the Perodua Myvi EZi. With an impressive fuel consumption of 54.3 mpg over the extra urban cycle, the Perodua Myvi provides low running costs.

The most recent addition to the range is the Perodua Myvi SE which aims to provide customers with even better value for money. As well as the standard high specification, the Perodua Myvi SE features an electric sunroof, reverse park control, remote central locking and privacy glass for just an additional £800 on top of normal prices. This means that the Perodua Myvi EZi SE is available for only £8,099 (including £1000 cash back) and represents a significant customer saving of nearly £300 in comparison to purchasing the options individually.

The Perodua Myvi EZi represents fantastic value for money, particularly with the current £1,000 customer cash back offer. A variety of fitted options are also available to personalise the great value super-mini.

Performance

The 85bhp 1.3-litre engine is the only powerplant on offer, but it's a flexible unit and gives the Myvi a good turn of speed, getting to 62mph in 11.3 seconds and on to a top speed of 102mph. It's a lively and peppy unit, so around town it feels even faster than that and Myvi nips in-and-out of lines of traffic with ease. It's not out of its depth on the motorway, either, where it keeps up with traffic well, although a downchange is sometimes needed for overtaking. Unusually there's also an automatic transmission available - a rather leisurely but smooth four-speed, although this means the 0-62mph time drops to 13 seconds.

perodua myvi review

If you experience a sense of déjà vu when you see the Perodua Myvi, it's easily explained. No, you don't have extra-sensory powers to see into the future, but you are likely to have seen this car before - just with a different set of badges. The Myvi is Perodua's take on the Daihatsu Sirion, which itself shares the bulk of its bits with the Subaru Justy. To cap it all, all three are based on a pint-pot Toyota, though this model is not sold in Europe.

With those other companies in its credentials, there's no doubt the Myvi is the car to shake off Perodua's cheap and cheerless image in the UK. We've no doubt it will be a reliable helper when it comes to getting about, but it's a shame Perodua doesn't have quite the same confidence to endow it with anything more than a 36,000-mile, three-year warranty. This is all the stranger when Daihatsu and Subaru provide cover for 60,000 miles. Still, the Myvi is well put together, though some of the interior plastics are hard, shiny and missing the visual charm of several other rivals. Given how much Perodua charges for the Myvi, there are also no excuses on the grounds of this car being in the bargain-basement price range. For the same money as the Myvi, there are some brilliant city cars and superminis available, including the Fiat Panda and Ford Fiesta.

For the money, Perodua includes a fair amount of standard luxury gear, covering air-conditioning, CD stereo, electric windows all round, remote central locking, rear parking sensors, metallic paint and electrically adjusted door mirrors. Not on the menu, however, are side or curtain airbags, as only driver and passenger 'bags are fitted. There are also no alloy wheels on offer or sunroof of any description. On the upside, Perodua buyers can choose the EZi model to have a four-speed automatic gearbox instead of the SXi's five-speed manual. Unless you really cannot drive without the aid of an auto, we reckon you're much better off with the manual as the self-shifter dents performance, economy and emissions.The 1.3-litre petrol engine serves up reasonable performance when coupled to the manual gearbox and returns a decent, if unspectacular for the class, 48.7mpg combined economy. The EZi auto comes in at 44.1mpg, with 151g/km carbon dioxide emissions to the manual's 137g/km. Again, neither sets the class alight. It's much the same with how the Myvi drives. Around town, it has light steering and a good turning circle, which makes it a cinch to feed through narrow gaps and to park. The high-set driving position also gives a good view out and it's easy to judge where the car's extremities lie. Head beyond the city limits and the Myvi is much less at home. On the motorway, there's too much road, wind and engine noise for anyone but the most committed owner to contemplate a long journey, while country roads show up the dull handling. There's not too much body lean, but the Myvi misses the grip and balance of a Fiat Panda, and the Perodua's suspension soon looses its composure on rut-strewn roads.

Some compensation comes in the Myvi's surprisingly spacious cabin. Thanks to its tall sides and seats that put its occupants in a comfortable, upright position, there's good head and legroom. The steering wheel only adjusts for angle, but the driver's seat moves for height, so a good driving position is easily attained by most users. Rear seats space is good and the small boot is unhindered by intrusions to make the most of its 255-litre capacity. Fold the 60/40 split rear seats and you have up to 630 litres of cargo space. The Myvi also rewards with low running costs thanks to group 6 insurance and cheap servicing, but it must be remembered that it will not hold its value as dependably as some of its competition. Still, once you're over the feeling of déjà vu, you're not likely to encounter another Perodua Myvi on the road.

facts about perodua myvi you should know

Buyers looking for a small, cheap car have plenty of choice these days. But one manufacturer is failing to register on the public radar: Perodua.

Even though it has the distinction of selling the UK’s cheapest model, in the shape of the £4,792 Kelisa, the Malaysian brand hasn’t made any impact here. Can the new Myvi do better?

It’s essentially a rebadged Daihatsu Sirion, and comes with an 86bhp 1.3-litre petrol engine. And at £7,799, it also represents a saving of more than £300 over its sister car.

Other than a revised bonnet with extra detailing and Perodua badges, the Myvi is identical to the Daihastu. And that’s no bad thing. It’s similar in size to Nissan’s Micra, but looks bigger due to its MPV-style tall roof. The short nose is ideal when squeezing into tight spaces, with the near-vertical back screen making reversing easier.

It feels very grown-up inside. Not only is the cabin practical, with an array of cubbies and cup-holders, but it looks good. The centre console is clearly laid-out, with the instrument binnacle featuring red-backed dials.

Space

But while we like the contrasting silver and black interior trim, some of the plastics aren’t up to the quality of European rivals. What can’t be faulted is the amount of space in the back; the Myvi accommodates three rear passengers in reasonable comfort.

The tailgate opens to reveal a decent luggage space. With the seats in place, there’s a 225-litre capacity, but fold the 60/40 split rear bench flat and you get a 630-litre load bay.

On the road, the Myvi does everything owners would ever ask of it, and nothing more. Enter corners too fast and there is plenty of body roll, while the light steering is short on feedback. But it’s composed at motorway speeds, and the soft ride soaks up bumps.

In most driving conditions, performance is acceptable, with 0-60mph in 11.3 seconds and a 106mph top speed. But the engine gets coarse at high revs. The five-speed manual gearbox is also rather vague, although it’s preferable to the £700 optional auto. Yet most buyers will forgive the Myvi a lot of its faults when they consider its near-50mpg combined economy.

Even better money-saving news is that Perodua is offering £1,000 cashback until the end of June. It’s no class leader, but as simple A to B transport, the Myvi isn’t bad!

Rival: Honda Jazz
The Myvi is as cheap as superminis get, but if you have the cash, the £9,000 Jazz is worth the extra. It’s good to drive, reliable, brilliantly made and incredibly flexible
