The Perodua Myvi has received a reboot for
2020, and now comes with enhanced safety and a fresh new colour. Safety first.
The Myvi now gets the latest Advanced Safety Assist (ASA) 2.0, and while ASA
was only available on the range-topping 1.5 AV before, ASA 2.0 is now standard
on the AV and 1.5 H, and is optional on the 1.3 X. So, standard on two variants
and also available in the 1.3L.
ASA debuted on this third and current
generation Perodua Myvi in 2017. It includes Pre-Collision Warning (PCW, up to
30 km/h), Pre-Collision Braking (PCB, up to 30 km/h), Front Departure Alert and
Pedal Misoperation Control.
ASA 2.0 first appeared on the Aruz in
2019, adding Pedestrian Detection (up to 50 km/h) to the suite and upping the
operational speeds of PCW and PCB to 100 km/h and 80 km/h respectively. ASA 2.0
then found its way into the 2019 Axia and 2020 Bezza, so it was a matter of
time before before Malaysia’s best-seller received it.
The next change is in the colour options.
As you can see in these official images, the Myvi now comes in Electric Blue
for all variants. Perodua started rolling out this shade of blue on the
rebadged Indonesian-market Daihatsu Sirion in March this year.
Granite Grey, which was previously
exclusive to 1.5L variants, is now available across the range except for the
base 1.3 G. The other colours are Ivory White, Glittering Silver and Lava Red.
Note that Peppermint Green, the bright hue that was previously a 1.3L special,
is gone. Also gone is Mystical Purple. There are no other equipment or
mechanical changes.
The 2020 Perodua Myvi range starts from
RM 41,292 (unchanged) for the base 1.3 G MT (the sole manual in the range) and
RM 43,029 (unchanged) for the 1.3 G AT, rising to RM 44,959 (unchanged) for the
1.3 X. As mentioned, ASA 2.0 is now an option for the 1.3 X, and if you tick
it, the price is RM2k higher at RM 46,959. Moving up, the 1.5 H now goes for
RM 50,530 (RM2k higher) and the top 1.5 AV is yours for RM 52,697 (RM 500 higher).
These prices are on the road without insurance, with the 2020 sales tax
exemption. Open for booking now.
