Haven't felt any issue with grip, but the roads I drive are good roads so even not as good don't think will notice.

No idea on seat cover, I don't bother these things.

For the gear lever definitely not my experience with my wife's H. Probably QC issue.

Last sentence agreed for all. The head light auto is annoying in parking lots really.

Perodua claims insanely low FC, no way that's accurate. My Alza actual FC (measure from pump not from their reading) is roughly 11-12 km/l for city driving (really city driving, kids to school is a few km, then going around from taman to taman through the day, all short hop) and recently 15 km/l for highway drive KL to JB and back. Quite happy with it, lose to Axia but I think better than Myvi.

I think no way to hope this (much heavier and larger cc) car can get anything close to axia-with-a-boot FC la.

M mode goes 1 to 7 for me (H variant). Used one time just to see that, never used since then.

During driving.

I was initial batch, got it within a month plus. But definitely can't rely on that because i booked on the launch day itself....

I already target this car since start of 2022, can see the old 'new alza' thread where we were discussing it. I placed booking for Aruz on 21st May (to 'chup' place in line, not sure if it helped or not), but the salesman knew my intention is the Alza anyway. On 10th June (initial launch date) I tried to convert the booking to Alza, but Perodua delayed the launch a bit, in the end pricing made available 23 June and my salesman immediately helped me book the car on 23rd June, reconfirmed (just in case) with salesman on 27th June. Finally launch was postponed again to 20th July, I test drove a unit (top spec) on 25th July. Car received (mid spec) 3rd August.

Good luck! Let us know when confirmed get.

I got H for one simple reason - reverse camera. Audio-tainment system/touchscreen isn't great for that purpose, but the reverse camera is so useful.

Steering wheel buttons can be ignored right? I hardly use them (though my wife does audio control often in my observation when she's driving).

I already replied to you previously this question...


On aerodynamics, definitely don't like this car for >130, feeling is not good and secure. Also when I'm bringing this car my whole family is together in it so I wouldn't be speeding so much as well anyway.

Salesman say... they will say what is needed of course. Maybe true, maybe not, it doesn't really matter to us right? So far no indication that Perodua is producing slower than their target (3k a month for Alza was what was announced earlier when it was launched).

Which highways ya'll driving that middle lane is 90ish and right lane is speed demon? My North-South experience is that mid lane is mostly 100-110 (except hill climbing or when those lorries decide to overtake the left lane), and if you're at 120/130 you can just stay in the right lane, just cut to left to allow the sports car (or myvi) to pass when they come.

Uh.... Axia length is 3645 mm, Alza is 4425. 20% longer, also increase width about 6%, how to compare? If you want easy parallel parking you should not be looking at a 7-seater!

Relative to Axia, almost every car is hard to park, even your normal sedans.

If you're taking 9 year loan to buy the car.... perhaps you should reconsider that decision first. One of the main benefits of buying new vs used is the warranty, if you're just going to void it direct then better buy used right?

Interesting.... I was surprised I can use for the full purchase price!

Settings (car must be stationary and on) can activate or deactivate.

Sorry but my wife's Alza currently in repair for few weeks di cos kena bang from behind at traffic light, so can't directly check. Try the manual?

My own experience when picking up kids from school, it will trigger even when crawling along (in front of school main gate, just slowly rolling forward in the line). In my case there was a lot of space from the car in front, but I suspect some students walking on my left side (not directly in front of the car) cause the system to trigger and suddenly brake the car.


Repair cost/process definitely can (once all completed). Picture let me ask my wife for permission, privacy concern. Since I got install rear dashcam we even have the video of the incident, but that one definitely can't share due to license plate clearly visible (and I can't be bothered to do masking on video).
