While the internet is still raining praises on the Royal Malaysian Police’s (PDRM) swift arrests of both suspects in the Proton Waja drama that happened last week, others were impressed by the Perodua Myvi’s composure in the video when the Waja was doing its best to ram it aside. But, the question remains, what of the Myvi’s repairs? Can the owner claim insurance? From what we can see in the viral video, the Myvi sustained the most damage when the Waja was desperately trying to squeeze between t

We’ve seen videos of creative project cars from all over the world and even from the less urban areas of Malaysia, the last thing we would expect to see is someone making a project out of a Perodua Kancil and turn it into a top-less "convertible". But that was exactly what surfaced on a Facebook group dedicated to selling second-hand cars. We have to say, it’s pretty cute. It is impossible to tell what year the Kancil was manufactured, because other than having its roof seared off, the owner has

The 2021 Perodua D55L is Perodua’s first-ever model to be fitted with a CVT-type automatic. Now, before you throw a tantrum at the mere mention of CVT, the one fitted to the D55L is very different from CVTs of yore. You see, the Perodua D55L's Dual-mode CVT (D-CVT) features a combination of steel chains and gear set, vastly different from regular CVTs that utilizes only belts or chains. Mechanically, the D-CVT is similar but not identical to Toyota's vaunted Direct Shift CVT, despite both units

Images of a white Perodua Myvi sitting on a fish stall has gone viral on social media recently.

According to the owner of the fish stall, Zulkifli Ramli, 44, the white Myvi was driven by a 60-year-old woman who had mistakenly stepped on the throttle pedal instead of the brake, causing the car to shoot forward and land on top of the stall’s counter.

The B-segment hatchback is a pretty popular segment in Malaysia, being the first choice among fresh grads and those looking for an upgrade from a small city car like the Perodua Axia or an older car. It’s also the segment where Malaysia’s most popular car resides in, the Perodua Myvi. The Myvi has always been an icon in the hearts of Malaysians.

A video of Bomba putting out fire on a badly burning car caught our attention recently, but it was not because there is a car on fire, instead it was what happened after that. A Perodua Myvi caused another accident on the highway as he slowed down to watch the Bomba put out the fire of the burning car. In the video, the person holding the camera was focussed on the burning car that the fire brigade was already working put out. But “auntie” unwittingly caught the accident between 2 Perodua Myvis

Both are DOHC 1.5-litre turbocharged units but the fuel system is different, the 1.5T MPI engine uses port injection while the 1.5 TGDI uses direct injection. The three cylinder direct injection unit (1.5 TGDI, codename JLH-3G15TD) makes 177 PS at 5,500 rpm and 255 Nm 1,500 – 4,000 rpm while the port injection (Proton calls it Multi Point Injection, MPI) 1.5T MPI makes 150

2021 Perodua D55L是Perodua旗下首款搭载CVT自排变速箱的车型。不过，虽然D55L采用了CVT变速箱，但这具变速箱跟你想象中的CVT可不一样。 Perodua D55L搭载的是双模式CVT（D-CVT），这具变速箱结合了钢带和齿轮组两种传动结构，这与仅使用钢带或链条的普通CVT变速箱有着很大的差别。 从机械结构上看，D-CVT和Toyota旗下的Direct Shift CVT都采用了钢带和齿轮组的混合结构，这也是两者唯一的共同点。从实际工作原理上看，这两者也有着很大的差别。 推荐阅读： Perodua Ativa（D55L）的CVT要比Proton的好，但D-CVT中的D指的是什么？ Toyota的Direct Shift CVT是什么？ Toyota的Direct Shift是Toyota在CVT技术上最新的成果，它能够达到接近于双离合（DCT）变速箱的性能，同时又能保持CVT的平顺性和经济性。 它在多个TNGA-B平台的Toyota车型上都有搭载，如Toyota Yaris和Toyota Yaris Cross等；同时，它也被TNGA-K平台的车型所采用，如
