Perodua recently introduced the Axia E which is targeted primarily for the lower income group with a price tag of RM22,000 (without insurance).
This variant is based on the Perodua Axia introduced in 2017 and is certified with a 4-star Asean NCAP rating by the Malaysian Institute of Road Safety Research (MIROS).
“The Perodua Axia E is part of our original objective of providing affordable and quality mobility for all Malaysians,” Perodua President and Chief Executive Officer, Dato’ Sri Zainal Abidin Ahmad said.
The Perodua Axia E manual transmission comes with two airbags, seatbelt reminder for the driver and a 5-year warranty. This new model does not have safety features like ABS, EBD, ESC and central locking. There are three options for colours including Ivory White, Glittering Silver and the new Granite Grey.
The Perodua Axia E market introduction was made by Perodua Chairman Tan Sri Asmat Kamaludin.
Since its launch in 2014 until 31st May 2023, Perodua registered 606,756 units of the Axia model, including the All-New Axia which was launched in February 2023.
Dato’ Sri Zainal said Perodua is aiming to sell up to 1,500 units a month, which include individual owners and fleet sales.
“While we do not dictate who our customers are, we believe that having this model would be a welcome option by majority of Malaysians.
“The Perodua Axia E has been market tested and proven over years and we believe that this variant would serve its current role of giving motorcycle owners an opportunity to own a new car.
“Based on our discussion with local financial institutions, we found that it only takes RM300 per month to pay the hire purchase cost of owning the Axia E. This is the same cost that would take for someone to buy a brand-new motorcycle on hire purchase,” Dato’ Sri Zainal said.
