When will Viva be replaced by Perodua?

[andlfloh]

Anyone knows when Perodua is likely to upgrade or replace the Viva ? I read somewhere that Viva may be replaced in late 2013.

Based on these 2 factors

1. Viva replaces both Perodua Kancil (15 years production) and Perodua Kelisa (6 years)...
2. Viva were based on 6th generation Daihatsu Mira (L250) that ended production in Japan in late 2006

It may be true that it will be replaced late 2013 since the 7th gen Mira are due for a replacement soon. Based on above factors, Daihatsu normally wouldn't allow Perodua to use same platform as theirs in Japan. so the new Viva should use the 7th gen platform then

Also, if based on history... the viva should continue production another 5 or 6 years...

p/s: secretly hoping that it will upgrade viva will have the new KF-based engine..... not the EF ones

Hope not like P1 cars, Japan keep supplying the old model until finish, then only launch new model....

Perodua has announced quite some time ago that they will have new cars in every two years. I believe that includes face lift models. Not sure bout viva but the new myvi and sirion are still using the same platform.

Well, from some insider info I heard, they are not looking to launch a new model until at least 2014. So make of that what you will.

Time to launch a Perodua Sedan la...enough with the ponies...time for Perodua Bezza..

or

Perodua Evo

Now that perodua is given green light to produce cars with higher cc, I really hope to see sedans rolling out from their factories. Sales sure will be good.

Anytime a Sales Advisor salary may exceed GM salary one leh
Cuz commission base. Pro and Cons, GM fix basic salary

And profit sharing....

If perodua is gonna produce sedans based on daihatsu or Toyota, it will sure be selling like hot cakes like the current myvi. The myvi disadvantage is that it's boot space is too small even for a chihuahua..

Bring Daihatsu Altis in, Proton can close shop straight.

Daihatsu Altis comes in, Toyota Altis sales are gonna drop? :stoned:
