how do you guys manage your first 1000 km for this car? manual says to vary your speed - do you guys do the same for your RPM too and how you tahan for first 1000 km do that? I find it quite challenging cos dont feel like i'm driving my car normally hahahaha

vary the speed. if you drive in city with mix of highway no worry, speed for sure varies..

dont do constant 90km/h on highway for the first 1000 km

yeah i try hard not so easy to do especially highway hahaha..quite suffer actually

My 2022 Alza X bought 62.5K, Perodua quoted insurance renewal for 2025/6 mkt value 56.4K. That's a drop of 6.1K or 9.76% depreciation over 3 years. 🤔

Should I sell it and get a new Alza every 3 years?

how much was your quotation for renewal (i mean for 1 year insurance)? I'm curious how much the p2 insurance costs compared to outside

Cause of the waiting period lor
+combo with Perodua brand = Ultimate resale value

You sell your Alza now, need wait 8 months+ for your replacement Alza to come

My 2023 Alza AV 75.5k new, just renewed insurance sum insured 70k.. 2 years old car depreciate by 5.5k or 7.2%..

Kinda crazy tbh, dont know how long it will last.. 75k brand new virgin vs 70k 2 years old janda..
I also cant fathom whether 2nd hand market demand out there really got that strong or not..

Oh well, that's one thing syok about owning Peroduas..
My 2019 MG3, 6 and 1/2 years old depreciated by about 30%.. If other brands 6 years old car i think depreciated by about 40%~

CyberKewl btw how long you waited for your alza av?

about 2 months and a bit only, quite surprised to be honest but my SA told me that production has increased so typical wait time now is 2-3 months but i guess depends on SA/which center also. I bought mine at bukit puchong sales center - bought from a Connie Chiam (highly recommended - she responds quite fast).

Booked on 3rd May, car arrived 9th July and I collected it on 12th July (I could have collected earlier but prefer to do on weekend).

Did you buy the Perodua total protect plus insurance? If yes, how much did you pay or it?

BTW the depreciation is true:
https://www.carsome.my/buy-car?keywords=alz...&year=2022,2025

Alza 2023 AV is selling at almost 74K (obviously they will buy at lower price, maybe closer to 65?) but still that's 2 year old car at that price is crazy.

This is because of the demand is very high still and many dont want to wait even for 2-3 months (which is current average waiting period depending on SA/which branch) - and want to do "cash and carry" - so the market puts it at a high price. It's just demand and supply. I think this will go away eventually but as long as demand is still high...

same with bezza. if you see this 2023 bezza selling RM 46,800:

New one almost 50K - so depreciate less than 4K only for 2 year old car...but again selling to carsome etc you will get lower lah..maybe 40 or 42K if lucky?

myEG also got a simplify button "check vehicle info" https://compare.myeg.com.my/

the sum insured higher by 1k only, that doesn't change the premium much. impossible is AV variant.

also that is just purely insurance valuation of the market value only.. Might not reflect the actual valuation of your car. It's just a guideline.
actual market value could be higher or lower depending on your own factors like mileage/maintenance/etcetc..


for example lah, my MG3 2019, insurance valuation is 36k.. But carsome selling for 45k.. I never enquired how much they willing to buy my car before but im guessing will be around 38k.. Im confident if i direct sell to buyer, i can sell for around 40k because my MG3 is low mileage and have full record SC maintenance even after warranty ended.

Going from Bandar Puteri -> Cyberjaya RFID ok
From Cyberjaya to Bandar Puteri (hit same toll) - NOT OK - error shown is tag tak sah or something like that...kena twice already...I try sunway toll last week - OK...

any idea why or any way to fix?
