Perodua Viva Info

Perodua Viva actually has 3 varniants of engine but for better satifaction, I want to explain about the 1000cc engine. This Viva using the 1.0L 3 cylinders engine assisting with the DOHC, 4 valves per cylinder with DVVT (Dynamic Variable Valve Timing). This engine can produce the maximum power of 45 kW @ 6000 RPM and maximum torque of 90 N.m @ 3600 RPM. The premium version offer the 5-speed manual transmission and the 4-speed automatic transmission while the standard version only offer the 4-speed automatic transmission. Perodua Viva has 36 litres fuel tank capacity while this fuel moved to the engine by the Electronic Fuel Injector.

The data about the top speed and the acceleration is difficult to find because this is a campact family car, so the road test is not so important. But a source had estimated the performance on the road for this car. The top speed estimated for this Perodua Viva is around 160 kph (99 mph) while this car had said to accelerate from static to 100 kph in 12.8 seconds.

For the car like this, the comfort of the passenger has higher priority than the ride handling. So, the McPherson strut suspension has been used for the front suspension while for the rear suspension, the torsion beam with coil spring has been used. For safety, the dual SRS airbag has been installed but it is only available in premium variants. Also, the addition system in premium version is the installation of the ABS and EBD system.

Perodua To Increase Local Share Market In Malaysia

KUALA LUMPUR, Nov 23 (Bernama) -- Perusahaan Otomobil Kedua Sdn Bhd (Perodua) says it expects to capture 33.3 per cent share of the local car market next year, citing better sales for its models, an improving market and better purchasing power of consumers as factors.

For the first 10 months this year, its market share was 31.1 per cent, said its group managing director, Datuk Syed Abdul Hafiz Syed Abu Bakar.

He said besides the Myvi and Viva models, the local car manufacturer was also banking on its Alza model to rake in more sales.

Syed Abdul Hafiz said Perodua had also revised its sales projection upwards five times this year despite the challenging economic conditions.

Based on the company's forecast to sell 176,000 units of cars next year, Perodua is confident of achieving its market share projection next year, Syed Abdul Hafiz told reporters during the launch of Perodua's new multipurpose vehicle (MPV), ALZA, here Monday.

Deputy Prime Minister Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin officiated the launch of the MPV.

The new MPV, for which booking was opened 10 days ago, has also received 3,500 bookings up to 2pm today.

For the first 10 months of this year, Perodua recorded a total sales of 138,000 units. This was a decline of three per cent from the 142,000 units sold during the same period last year.

For the whole of this year, the company expects to hit a sales of 164,000 units compared with 167,000 units last year.

On the total industry volume (TIV), he said the company was projecting a volume of 520,000 units compared with the Malaysian Automotive Association's projection of 480,000 units.

He said the company's projection was based on the overwhelming response for the government's programme to scrap cars 10-years of age and above.

So far, the programme, which involves Proton and Perodua, has already seen 40,000 cars moved under the programme.

"This reflects the success of the programme under the second stimulus package. This has helped a lot," he said.

He said the market for MPV was also expected to grow from 10 per cent of TIV currently to 30 per cent next year. This will certainly boost the market, he added.

Meanwhile, the ALZA, which comes in six colours, offers two standard variants, automatic and manual transmission.

Prices range from RM56,000 to RM70,000 for the MPV depending on whether it is a standard, premium or advanced model. The advanced version will be available in the market .

Toyota Ractis

 

Will Perodua Myvi New Model Be Like This?

 

Ractis is powered by same engine as the Toyota Sienta while the Ractis also available in 1.3L variant. The Ractis is introduced in Japan in year 2005 and had been years we hear rumours that Toyota will bring in this model to Malaysia. However, we do not see it in the showroom until now. So perhaps the Perodua will bring in this model as their new MPV.

However, the Ractis is a 5 seater mini MPV. So to make it a 6 seater MPV, Perodua will need to do some job to extend the Ractis wheelbase so that it is long enough to accomodate 6.

Personally, i prefer this Toyota Ractis design as it gives me the feel of Toyota Wish and Estima! Its such a cool machine! Wow!

Malaysian Car Better Builts This Year : JD Power

The numbers speak for themselves - according to the results of J.D. Power's Asia Pacific 2009 Malaysia Initial Quality Study (IQS), the overall new-vehicle initial quality in Malaysia has markedly improved from 2008.

The study, now in its seventh year, examines new-vehicle quality during the first two to six months of ownership.

The study measures more than 200 problem symptoms covering eight vehicle components: vehicle exterior; driving experience; features/controls/displays; audio/entertainment/navigation; seats; HVAC; vehicle interior; and engine/transmission.

All problems are summarised as the number of problems reported per 100 vehicles (PP100), and lower scores indicate a lower rate of problem incidences and higher performance. The study was based on responses from 2,874 new-vehicle owners who purchased their vehicle between Sept 2008 and May 2009, with 52 passenger car, pickup and utility vehicle models from across 15 brands evaluated.

The Malaysian average was 136 in 2009, improving by 22 from 2008, and all eight component areas showed improvement levels. Vehicle exterior issues and problems related to the driving experience represent nearly 50% of total reported problems.

In terms of specific models by segment, the Perodua Myvi ranks highest in the compact car segment for a third consecutive year with 127 PP100, followed by the Proton Savvy (154) and the Perodua Viva (186).

Meanwhile, the new Honda City ranks highest in the entry mid-size car segment, with 76 PP100. Second in the category is the Toyota Vios (107), with the Proton Saga (158) placed third.

In the mid-size car segment, the Toyota Corolla Altis takes the honours with 80 PP100, followed by the Honda Civic (103) and the Nissan Sylphy (109).

As for the MPV/van segment, Toyota's Innova takes the top spot for a second consecutive year, with a score of 85 PP100, with the Nissan Grand Livina (89) and the Toyota Avanza (100) making up the top trio.

In the pickup segment, the Isuzu D-max ranks highest with a 66 PP100 rating, well ahead of the Toyota Hilux (94) and the Mitsubishi Triton (101).

Facts you need to know about Viva

Here's my thought about Perodua Viva


The Perodua Viva is a city car manufactured by Malaysian automaker Perodua since May 10, 2007. It was originally planned to be the replacement of Perodua's current city cars - the Perodua Kancil and the Perodua Kelisa. Once launched, Perodua decided to market it as a Kelisa replacement only, and will continue to sell the Kancil. The Perodua Viva is based on the 6th generation Daihatsu Mira. All of the Perodua Viva models uses Daihatsu DVVT engines. Only the Premium version comes with dual airbag and ABS.

Specifications

The Perodua Viva was launched with 6 models. They are 660EX manual, 850EX manual, 1.0SX Standard manual, 1.0SXi Premium manual, 1.0EZ Standard automatic and the 1.0EZi Premium automatic.

The suspension is typical of small hatchbacks with MacPherson struts in front located by an L-shaped lower arm. At the rear, Viva is fitted with a torsion beam axle and trailing arms. The suspension geometry has been optimised for better steering response and ride comfort. The 1000 cc models have power-assisted steering, optional auto transmission and also a front stabilizer. The 660 cc and 850 cc are barebones basic models, devoid of power steering and auto transmission. As the Viva is based on Daihatsu Mira, a kei car, it has a compact exterior dimensions and a small turning radius. It is roomy for its class, with enough room for 4 adults comfortably.

Engines and performance

Viva comes with 3-cylinder engine choices: 660 cc, 850 cc and 1000 cc. They are familiar engines but updated with modern technology such as DVVT (Dynamic Variable Valve Timing) and EFI, and they all have twin overhead camshafts to provide even stronger low-speed pulling power, resulting in fewer gearchanges, yet also manages to increase top end power. Other innovations include a resin port intake manifold and a head cover incorporating an air-cleaner casing.

EF-VE 660 (659 cc) – at 7200 rpm, at 4400 rpm also used in Daihatsu Hijet
ED-VE 850 (847 cc) – at 6000 rpm, at 4000 rpm which is developed from the engine that powered the Daihatsu Move
EJ-VE 1000 (989 cc) – at 6000 rpm, at 3600 rpm also used in some versions of Daihatsu Sirion and Perodua Myvi

Fuel economy varies from 15.1 km/l (42.6 mpg (imp)) for the fully loaded 1000 cc auto version to the very thrifty 18.7 km/l (53 mpg) for the basic 660 cc model. For the 1000 cc manual the 0-100 km/h time is about 12.80 seconds. The engine torque band is not peaky and timing it takes to hit is good. It may be pushed to without much effort. However the engine drones at such speeds.Top speed is around 160 km/h (99 mph.

The Perodua Viva was launched with 6 grades. They include:
The 660EX manual: RM 28,000
The 850EX manual: RM 32,000

History Of The Kancil

The first Malaysian compact car Perodua Kancil


The Perodua Kancil (also known as the Perodua Nippa in the United Kingdom, and the Daihatsu Ceria in Indonesia) is a city car manufactured by Malaysian automobile manufacturer Perodua since 1994. The Kancil is named after the mousedeer (chevrotain) native to Malaysia.

Overview

The Kancil was Perodua's first car after its founding in 1993. It is a small five-door hatchback vehicle on a monocoque framework that could seat five people. The Kancil and its predecessors are actually a modified Daihatsu Mira through badge engineering. Badge engineering is prevalent in Malaysia's automotive industry since it began in 1985 with carmaker Proton. Subsequent Kancils were only rejuvenated cosmetically as Perodua maintained the monocoque structure and tweaked with its engines.

Reception and production

Following its release in 1994, the Kancil became an instant success in Malaysia. The Kancil is popular with beginner drivers and is commonly used in Malaysian driving schools. It was also preferable for its fuel efficiency and easier for parking due to its size. In December 1995, Perodua produced its 50,000th Kancil. By January 1997, 100,000 Kancils had been manufactured, and by 1999 250,000 had been built.

The Kancil was sold in the United Kingdom as the Perodua Nippa before it replace by Perodua Kelisa, and rebadge in Indonesia between 2000 and 2006 as the Daihatsu Ceria.

Facelifts and replacement

The original Kancil underwent two minor facelifts. In 1997, the car's grille and bumpers were better integrated to support to a larger grille and rounded indicator lights. In 2000, the car was given another slight facelift consisting of body-coloured side mouldings, a new grille and reprofiled front bumper with larger indicators.

The Kancil received more extensive restyling in 2002, featuring rounder headlights, taillights and bumpers; its rear license plate was also repositioned onto its hatch from the bumper below. Its interior features a flushed dashboard with the combination instrumentation panel placed in the middle similar to that of the Toyota Yaris. However, it is still mechanically identical to its predecessor, except for the EZi automatic transmission option which is given a fuel-injected powerplant.

Although the Perodua Viva, a new model based on the new Daihatsu Mira, was widely considered a legitimate replacement for the long-running Kancil, Perodua had decided to continue selling the old Kancil and replaced the Perodua Kelisa instead on May 11, 2007.

Models

The Kancil currently was sold in three variants:
Kancil 660EX- 659 cc three-cylinder carbureted in-line engine, 29 hp (22.1 kW), five-speed manual transmission, black bumpers and door rub strips. RM 22,055.
Kancil 850EX- 847 cc three-cylinder carbureted in-line engine, 36 hp (25.5 kW), five-speed manual transmission, body-color bumpers and rub strips. RM 27,227.
Kancil 850EZi- 847 cc three-cylinder fuel-injected in-line engine, 49 hp (34.7 kW), three-speed automatic transmission, body color bumpers and rub strips. RM 32,039.
