The Perodua Myvi, Malaysia’s favourite car, has received an update to its ASA* safety system. Previously, the range-topping 1.5 AV was the only Myvi variant equipped with the Advanced Safety Assist (ASA) suite of driver assistance safety systems. The ASA is now updated to the latest version – ASA 2.0, which is more advanced, and is standard on the 1.5 AV and 1.5 H variants, and optional for the 1.3 X.
“With the inclusion of ASA 2.0, the Perodua Myvi takes advanced safety to a whole new level at this price point, and it’s now more widely available within the line-up,” said Perodua President and Chief Executive Officer Dato’ Zainal Abidin Ahmad.
“The latest Myvi carries on the Perodua tradition of bringing advanced safety technology to the people by making it affordable and accessible to all,” he added.
ASA 2.0 Features
The ASA system debuted at the launch of the current third-generation Perodua Myvi in 2017. The safety suite comprised of Pre-Collision Warning (up to 30km/h), Pre-Collision Braking (up to 30km/h), Front Departure Alert and Pedal Misoperation Control, all of which work together to mitigate collisions.
ASA 2.0 first made its appearance in the Aruz in 2019. It added Pedestrian Detection (up to 50 km/h) to
the safety suite and increased the operational speeds of Pre-Collision Warning and Pre-Collision Braking to 100km/h and 80km/h respectively.
Later on, ASA 2.0 found its way into the 2019 Axia and 2020 Bezza and now it is added to the Myvi.
Now a New Colour
Additionally, the Myvi is now available in Electric Blue (for all variants). Other available colours are Ivory White, Glittering Silver, Lava Red and Granite Grey (now available on all variants except 1.3 G).
“Check out the updated Perodua Myvi now at any of our sales outlets nationwide – our authorised sales advisors will be only too happy to assist you and answer your queries on the latest version of Malaysia’s best-selling car!” Dato’ Zainal said.
The prices for the 2020 Perodua Myvi are:

- 1.3 G AT : RM43,029
- 1.3 X AT : RM44,959

All prices are on-the-road before insurance in Peninsular Malaysia. The government’s sales tax exemption is applicable until 31st December 2020. The Myvi continues to have a five-year/150,000km warranty (whichever comes first).
*ASA is a driver assistance system that helps to reduce the risk of collisions. It is by no means a substitute for safe driving. Always be alert and cautious behind the wheel.
