topup a bit god car GR spec gooding.

from what ive read on the new myvi, its pretty much the same but with the "level-2 semi autonomous driving" capability

mind you, it only works on realistically perfect conditions (so basically never in malaysia) and between speeds of 30~120kmph

so, if you are into resale value and smaller cheaper cars - get the myvi.
if you are into higher seating position, get the ativa for slightly more

also, i would rather walk than drive an x50

Wah... Why the hate to x50? Can share experience ah? Wanna know also.

Thanks for the insight bro. I like the higher seating position, ive been driving 2 generation of myvi alrd, 1st and 2nd, getting tired. Lol.

Then don't think anymore.. ativa
Faster book. Long queue

just a joke la hahahha
because people's experience with the x50 or x70 is that even minor crashes or repairs will take, no joke, months to solve due to parts needing to ship from china and logistics and proton specialists messing up and etc

from personal experience, my sister's x70 had to go back to the shop a total of 5 times within 2 months to get the front bumper replaced
how do i know this? because i was the one sending it over

Assuming everything in the myvi is the same except the gearbox and safety features, I would say go for the Ativa

Most things are the same except ENGINE.

Myvi 1.3 & 1.5 NA, Ativa 1L turbo.

hmm my wife initially wanna buy ativa or x50

but then changed her mind and wanna br-v instead.. now waiting for SA to process the loan and etc

High ground clearance for Ativa. 1L turbo save road tax, but power like 1.5L

Do check if your needs change as well
Do you have kids, more long journeys etc

Maybe both car also don't serve you well
Perhaps a 7seater? Pickup truck? Full size sedan?

new BRV just launched in indonesia. You might want to wait for the new BRV

But brv 7 seaters nia, i always drive alone only

Not married, single and always drive alone in the city only. Occasionally cruising on highway on weekend for short trip.

Let me comment a thing or two.
Downsized engines does not save fuel and give power concurrently. Its either you drive like you stole it or drive sanely.
And usually those who own with turbo mostly won't drive leisurely. If you gonna drive sanely might as well go for 1.5L NA.
Otherwise defeat the purpose of a turbo engin and defeat the purpose of saving fuel because of a smaller engine.

Go and survey Civic 1.5T owners, see what's their town driving FC. Only town driving. Don't quote those Highway FC.
The FC drinks more or less like a 2.0L.

ohh, i thought you're the one with the wife just booked BRV.
Well, if you dont need the extra space, get the Ativa. Myvi's 1.5 will be obsolete and replaced by the 1.0T for next generation. At least you still have the latest technology when the myvi is replaced by newer generation model.

haha that's me

my wife didn't like xpander front design.. quite ugly she say 

i mean there are new BRV launching anytime next year. you wanna wait for that?
Indonesia launched it this year.

Reported real life FC is 15km/l city drive isn't it? A bit worse than myvi

Our Ativa is filled with RON95 at RM2.05 per litre and we’ve spent a sum of RM 1,461.49 based on the receipt total.

An observation is that when we drove the Ativa in stop-go city traffic, the fuel consumption soared to 8 – 9 L/100 km. Only on smooth highway journeys at a constant speed, the fuel consumption dipped below 7 L/100 km.
...

To this date, we fail to achieve Perodua’s claimed figures of 18.9 km/L or 5.29 L/100 km.

From our experience so far, we can conclude that the Ativa is not very efficient in stop-go traffic and the 1.0-litre 3-cylinder turbo works best cruising at 80 – 110 km/h.

Tall + boxy + lightweight + highway is never a good idea.

If you compare to Perodua Aruz or even Mitsubishi Xpander both of them overall in term of safety or drivability also better compare to it.. Is no brainer to buy Honda br-v nowadays.. The competition from others already topple it..

No brainer
= little or no mental effort needed
= definitely should do

Proton got announcement at 11am later, might launch new sedan it seems. So can keep an eye of that.

Announced new gallery only...

Currently driving a 3rd gen Myvi (pre-facelift).
After test-driving the Ativa I was amazed by its performance and its package. A lot of designs that are actually friendly to users compared to Myvi but some designs don't make sense (chrome parts at the air cond vents, centre console, storage space...).

Ativa is rebadged JDM model catering to Japanese market.

Myvi is designed primarily for msian buyers.
