Yeah, I got the same feeling too when first time driving from KL to Melaka. Especially when bigger cars/ lorries passing by and I could feel the car sway to the opposite way. Compared to my old Viva, my arms hurt a lot try to maintain my bezza. Perhaps the EPS is very sensitive compared to hydraulic one.
The next time I drove back to KL, the sway feeling was a bit less. Maybe I am adjusting to the car already.
What i hear from others it that after installing those ultra racing bar, it will lessen. Also, change bigger rim will help. But I think both have chance to void warranty or make claims harder.

Maybe you can try to experiment, try to lower your tyre pressure between 230 - 240kPa (when cold). I find that it helps the car feel more planted and less sway. Lesser than 230, personally find it too soft and when fully loaded with passenger and luggage, the braking feeling not too reassuring.
Also remember that tyre pressure changes with temperature. Every 10C increase in temperature, air pressure increases 7kPa.
Hence if you pump 250kPa per Perodua specs in a cold morning, by noon you will be at 257kPa, hit the highway for an hour and the tyre heats up, you may be close to 270 or higher. Although this is what Perodua anticipated, i really don't like it, damn firm and the car feels disconnected from the road
