Perodua Myvi in North America

When most motorists hear the name Perodua, they usually run away screaming. Let's just say that Perodua has a reputation for quality which is somewhat equivalent to Chinese cheap toy companies. That's a real shame since the Myvi is an all new design that shows the world that Perodua is taking the criticism seriously. Its 1.3 litre engine provides sporty performance that will satisfy the most demanding fast driver (keeping in mind what class of car we're in) and the fuel mileage is below the class average, but excellent for the size of engine. The price of the Myvi is somewhat unfortunate as if it could be chopped down by 15% it would definitely place it in the Top 5 in the class.


The Perodua Myvi Hatchback 1.3 SXi 5 Door is estimated to carry a North American net sale price of $12,246.00, given the prevailing market pricing of similar automobiles. Its 1298 cc engine powers the car to a top speed of 106 MPH and an acceleration shown by a zero to sixty MPH time of 11.3 seconds. The performance factor of 12.2 is above average for its class. The Perodua Myvi Hatchback 1.3 SXi 5 Door returns 58.8 MPG in highway driving, 37.7 MPG in the city, and a combined loop mileage of 48.7. With a fuel tank capacity of 8.7 gallons, the car can travel 512 miles on a full tank of unleaded regular fuel, but when it's filled right up to the top of the fuel filler neck, the total range should be approximately 616 miles. When all these price, performance and mileage factors are taken into consideration, the Perodua Myvi Hatchback 1.3 SXi 5 Door scores a combined Practicality Index of 72, with 100 representing the best, most practical car available and 1 representing a Hummer H3.
