Verdict
At RM34,580, the Bezza 1.0 G MT is the rational buy: it has the same 67 hp/91 Nm 998 cc engine, 508-litre boot, two airbags and four-star ASEAN NCAP rating as its automatic sibling, while its 4.4 L/100 km rating undercuts 4.7. The RM2,000 step to RM36,580 buys the 4E-AT’s two-pedal driving, not extra power or safety hardware. Choose it only if avoiding clutch work matters more than lower outlay and fuel use.
Pick the Perodua Bezza 1.0 G MT if you want the lower purchase cost and its 4.4 L/100 km rated fuel economy.
Pick the Perodua Bezza 1.0 G AT if a conventional four-speed automatic is essential for your daily driving.
