Perodua Axia – Trims and Key Features

Hatchbacks are among the most practical and versatile cars, thanks to their compact design, which makes them easy to handle and manoeuvre even in narrow spaces. Among the various hatchbacks available in the country, the Perodua Axia is among the well-known automobiles. The car is equipped with advanced technology that ensures occupant comfort and safety.

Perodua Axia – Trims and Key Features
Additionally, the Perodua Axia is available in multiple trim levels to cater to diverse buyer needs.

Trims
The Perodua Axia has five variants—the E, G, X, SE and AV trims. The Axia E trim is the only variant with a manual transmission and a five-speed gearshift. The rest of the trims have dual CVT or D-CVT (automatic transmission) systems. A D-CVT system makes transmission much smoother, which also helps improve fuel economy.

Key features

1. Engine and performance
One of the key features of the Perodua Axia is its EEV (energy-efficient vehicle) engine, which helps it use less fuel than other cars. To increase fuel savings, one can opt for a D-CVT-equipped Axia trim. This combination offers a mileage of around 25.3 km per litre. Additionally, the SE and AV trims are equipped with the Eco Idle technology, which automatically switches the engine off when the car is not moving. This increases the fuel efficiency, boosting the mileage to about 27.4 km/l.

The engine also offers a powerful performance regardless of the trim level. All the Perodua Axia variants have the same 1-litre DOHC EFi (electronic fuel injection) engine with VVTi technology. One can expect a displacement of 998 cc across variants, a maximum output of 50 kW (about 67 horsepower) and a maximum torque of 91 Nm.

2. Easy-to-use infotainment system
A responsive and straightforward car infotainment setup can enhance the driving experience. It also makes the automobile ideal for families. The Perodua Axia does not disappoint here. It also has an easy-to-operate audio system, with the higher trims of the car equipped with a pair of speakers in the front and a pair in the rear.

The AV trim of the Axia takes infotainment a notch up, as the trim has a 9-inch display. Additionally, the AV variant comes with Smart Link, a feature that allows one to connect their smartphone to the infotainment system. Other key conveniences include a voice command function, which makes the system easier to control. The AV trim also has a multi-functional steering wheel with buttons to control infotainment functions.

3. Safety and security
Along with a powerful engine and reliable infotainment system, the Perodua Axia also offers key safety features to keep drivers and occupants safe. Some of the notable features are a pre-collision warning and braking system, front departure alert and pedal misoperation control system. The car also has a few basic safety features, such as an emergency stop signal, vehicle stability control, traction control and an anti-lock braking system (ABS) with braking assist. Those who enjoy off-roading can make the most of its hill-start assist system, which keeps the car from rolling downhill when it is stopped on a slope and needs to be restarted. The Axia also has adaptive cruise control, which allows the driver to maintain a constant speed and keep a safe distance from the vehicle ahead to avoid any collisions.

While these features protect the occupants from collisions and other accidents, the Axia also has several security features that help prevent theft and unauthorised access. These features include an anti-theft device, a central locking system, power door locks and an engine immobiliser.

4. Driving and parking assistance
Along with ensuring the safety and security of the vehicle and occupants, it is also important for a modern car to assist the driver. To do that, Perodua has equipped the Axia with features like lane departure warning, lane departure prevention, electronic parking brake with auto brake hold, lane keep control and blind spot monitoring. Along with driving assistance, the Perodua Axia has advanced parking assist features, such as a 360-degree panoramic view monitor, front and rear corner sensors, a reverse camera and a rear cross-traffic alert system. The camera and monitor provide the driver with a clear view of the front and rear view of the vehicle. Additionally, the traffic alert system and the corner sensors keep the car from crashing into pedestrians, corners, objects, or other vehicles while parking. These features make driving and parking the car easier.

5. Keyless entry and start
Often considered a key feature in modern cars, a keyless entry and start system makes accessing the vehicle quite convenient. Here, one gets access to a key fob that can automatically unlock the car without manually inserting the physical key. This can be especially useful when one is carrying grocery bags or luggage and wants quick access to the car. Along with that, the Axia features a push-button start system, which immediately switches the engine on.

Price
The Perodua Axia’s base trim, the manual-transmission variant E, is available at a starting price of around RM 22,000. The starting price for the automatic trims is around RM 38,600. That said, the upfront price can vary based on factors like the location, trim level, upgrades and optional packages and dealership.
