As of January 2023, Perodua said it still has around 220,000 outstanding bookings carried over from 2022. A fair number of these bookings are for the outgoing generation Perodua Axia.

Even Christian von Koenigsegg has channelled his genius into developing a 600 HP three-cylinder engine. With these developments however, some of us still remain very sceptical of them. We will never forget the underpowered three pots in tiny cars like the Perodua Kancil and Perodua Kelisa. Sure

The crossover inspired Perodua Axia Style variant was launched in Sri Lanka at the Seylan Colombo Motor Show, which is happening over the weekend from 8-10 November. Unimo Enterprises, the local distributor for Perodua in Sri Lanka, is collecting bookings for the 2019 Perodua Axia Style at the show. It is priced at Rs 3.895 million in the island nation, which converts to around an eye-opening RM 89k. Bet we’re all feeling glad now. The Axia Style can be spotted by its silver bumper skid plates,
