2nd hand ativa. easy to get in and out, more airbags than bezza. not as bad as the bezza or axia, but it is still a thin car. but imo a great choice for pure city driving.
2020 vios & city i see there are units around 60k. i like this gen vios and city. great space and utility.
alzas and myvis will be under 60k as well. but tbh unless gunning for the pre-fl versions, perodua just go for new. unless you know the car history.
here's a more atas option that will hit that 80k. camry 2.0gx >2016. must be gx for updated safety. its quite alot older than 5 years but i think its still a good deal. but harder to maintain cuz direct injection engine.
My default choice is actually Ativa, but as usual my itchy self like to go for max spec and end up will reach 70k+ for the highest Ativa. Then come back to I feel its a bit like kosong / tinny, for the price (I might have too high expectations?)
Im not keen on D segment car, its too big for my usage and definitely not petrol friendly because my usage is very short distance 11km to office, MAXIMUM traffic jam to and fro.
I kinda like Yaris.

Agreed with Frog, with 60-80K budget just get new.
Then dont have to worry about familiar mechanic as can send to official service centre under warranty first 5 years. Enough time to scout out reliable ones for after warranty period.
But P2 cars are eggshells. One major collisions by heavy vehicle its bye bye kudasai entire family enter heaven. Thats why it has lots of active safety systems to try prevent accidents but if lorry-kun fated to isekei you then its your time. š¤
If this is a deal breaker, then test drive new Proton when it launch
2025 Q4 Saga new 1.5L engine est 50-60K
2026 Q2 S70 Exec with new 1.5T 4-cyl engine est 70-80K
Edit: new Ativa X is 63K, no need get used unless budget 40-50K
Is this 1 hit by a lorry and confirm gone even for Ativa?
I'd LOVE a S70 4cyl, everything feels right except for the mega shaking 3cyl.
Suppose I will wait for new Saga.
Thanks.
