My OPINION: This is a VERY GOOD Buy. Very Spacious and versatile Interior that Fits 5 adults comfortably. Well spec'ced across the Range. SMART Move by UMW Group fitting the Avanza 1.3 and VIOS DUAL VVTI Engine on the 1.5 Variant to fight the Honda Jazz. Also, ESP Standard Across the Range. No doubt it's Still 4 speed E-AT Transmission but Conventional Auto is anytime better than rubber band CVT No? The New Myvi's Well built inside out with Quality Plastics and Nice panel gaps. Quality Vendors by Bosch, Denso, Pilkington (windows), AL (lightings). Good ECO Tyres too with FULL SIZE Spare tyre across the range. The 1.5 have 6 airbags. 4 more than the 4+1 seater Nissan Almera! The Icing on the Cake's Daihatsu Indonesia's going to REBADGE this MYVI as Sirion in Indonesia and Singapore?. Who will imagine Daihatsu Rebadging our Perodua? My pick will be 1.3 Manual spec at RM44,800 OR 1.5 Advance (with the ADAS) at RM55,800. Rating: 8/10 for 1.3, 9/10 for 1.5SE and 10/10 for 1.5 Advance.
All I need is a Test drive...
