Verdict
At RM46,500, the Perodua Myvi 1.3 G without PSDA keeps the same 94 hp/121 Nm 1.3-litre petrol engine, D-CVT, 4.5 L/100 km rating and 5-star ASEAN NCAP result as the RM48,500 Perodua Myvi 1.3 G. The RM2,000 gap is not buying more pace or space; it buys PSDA safety equipment. That means autonomous braking with pedestrian and cyclist detection from 4-80 km/h, steering correction, collision warning, Front Departure Alert, Pedal Misoperation Control and automatic high beam. For a Malaysian daily driver, that is a modest premium for meaningful active safety coverage.
Pick the Perodua Myvi 1.3 G without PSDA if RM2,000 matters more to you than autonomous braking, steering correction and automatic high beam.
Pick the Perodua Myvi 1.3 G if you want PSDA’s active safety systems for an extra RM2,000.
