The Perodua Myvi 1.3G variants are powered by a 1.3L DOHC 4-cylinder engine with Dual Variable Valve Timing with intelligence (Dual VVT-i). This engine produces a max power of 95 PS at 6,000 rpm and a max torque of 121 Nm at 4,000 rpm.

With the new update, all variants of the Myvi now have a dual-mode continuously variable transmission (D-CVT). With this new transmission, the Myvi is able to improve its fuel consumption to 4.7 L/100 km (with Eco Idle System). The Perodua Myvi with the 1.3L engine is able to accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h in 11.5 seconds, while the variants with the 1.5L engine can do it in 10.2 seconds.
The Perodua Myvi, including the base 1.3 G (without PSDA variant) is well equipped with the modern safety features buyers expect today. Standard safety features on all variants are Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) with Electronic Brake Distribution (EBD), Vehicle Stability Control (VSC), Traction Control (TRC), Emergency Stop Signal (ESS), Hill-start Assist (HSA), ISOFIX system with top tether, auto locking/unlocking doors, and rear corner parking sensors.

Available on higher-spec variants is the Perodua Smart Drive Assist (PSDA) safety suite.

The Perodua Myvi is Malaysia’s best-selling car for a reason. It’s affordable, spacious, versatile, and is the only car with advanced safety features in this price segment. Although it doesn’t have the most refined interior and driving dynamics, it offers a whole lot for its price which makes it a great car for a wide range of users.
