Forte3737 5th Gear February 12, 2016 Share February 12, 2016 The way the Axia is priced at $76K is asking for an early exit from the market. Same price as Mitsubishi Attrage 1.2 and Nissan Note 1.2. How to sell? Cost price of Axia with Cat A COE at $45K, is $60k. Price it at $70K with a $10K profit margin, still have some hope to sell. Even German made Ford Focus Trend 1.6 (which is worlds apart from the Axia) is selling at a profit margin of only $8K @$88K. They should close shop. Wonder how they survive? ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vinceng Turbocharged March 5, 2016 Share March 5, 2016 They should close shop. Wonder how they survive? The problem now is because so few Axia are sold, spare parts will be an issue, and insurance premiums will be high. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vinceng Turbocharged December 5, 2016 Share December 5, 2016 Perodua Axia manual now at $70,800. Further price reduction on Saturday. Minus scrap value, only $6,800 annual dep, and <$400 annual rd tax, cheap insurance and abundance of cheap spares up North. Very good deal for those who need a car which comes with rear leg room that allows you to sit cross legged, N-CAP 4 star rating and don't mind a hand job and bodybuilder's calf muscle on your left leg. http://www.sgcarmart.com/new_cars/pricelist/33/2016-12-03.pdf Reviews https://www.autofreaks.com/reviews/test-drive-review-perodua-axia-1-0-advance/ Axia rear leg room puts many hatch and notchbacks to shame 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hachi 3rd Gear December 5, 2016 Share December 5, 2016 Rather add 2k to get the auto. For small engine, I think it is better to let the auto tranny to do all the work for you and a CVT too... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

For small engine, I think it is better to let the auto tranny ROB THE POWER for you and a CVT too.. A 1000cc car with auto tranny would end up performing like a 800cc. Add in CVT instead, and it probably peforms like a 660cc Kei Car. Edited December 5, 2016 by Vinceng Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hachi 3rd Gear December 6, 2016 Share December 6, 2016 Nowadays whether fuel consumption and acceleration are on par with manual shifter. So might as well take the cvt. Higher resale value as well. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Higher resale value as well. Yah but CVT annoying sound and annoying drive. Also more failure prone compared to manual. haiz, if can get this car for under MYR 30k here, I buy just to trash and drive for groceries.

Victor68 Turbocharged December 28, 2016 Share December 28, 2016 I owned a proton wira years back and it cost me $97K (COE was $47K). If you look at today's varity of cars available, frankly none of the Malaysian cars come even close for consideration. They really need to work very hard either to lower price or improve quality.

Comparing apples with apples - a sedan with a sedan.... The Perodua Bezza (with a Toyota engine under the bonnet) might make you take back your words http://www.sgcarmart.com/new_cars/newcars_photos.php?CarCode=12007 My gut feel is that it's going to cost at least $20,000 less than what you paid for your Proton Wira.
