It feels premium because 80% buyers either came from old Alza which is a dinosaur, or only ever bought a Perodua or old Proton before.... It is a hike overall in experience especially for Perodua. Good things Malaysians are now worthy enough so we all can agree that we need a higher baseline what is considered as acceptable car experience.
The word "premium" is very depending on different classes of people.. If you were driving over rm100k car value.. of coz you will feel cheap in this car.. But if someone is driving a low budget car, of coz they will feel premium when they upgrade to this car..
From a family that used Alza 2010 until the new Alza came out, I can agree with you and say that the difference in quality is like night and day. The first time I got into the new Alza, it feels like some sort of Honda and Mercedes in terms of premiumness. It really feels premium and it still does to this day. I can understand reviewers saying those interior stuff feels cheap, that feel cheap and so on because they got to play with lots of cars from different company and different price range. They will know what's cheap and what's not because they have experience being in an expensive car unlike me who had been in the old Alza for almost 12 years but nonetheless, I'm grateful that the new Alza is as good and premium as it is now
@@josuke6131 yes.. exactly.. this time really dissapointed towards GC and Autobuzz for this Alza presentation.. i understand that GC drove a Lexus and Serena which it is "premium", so it might make him feel Alza not premium.
You are somewhat right about “premium” being subjective to people. But for us, we cannot be describing everything as “premium” just because something is nicer than usual. We need to / can correctly differentiate what’s what (because we are lucky enough to try all sorts of cars). Imagine describing the Alza as premium, and with the same tone Lexus NX is also premium. You won’t need us reviewing cars anymore.
This Alza, well of course while materials are budget, the tech and driving stability is already on par of 2022, a huge step up from the previous Alza from 2009. I think Perodua/Toyota/Daihatsu while they really took their time, has made their effort worth it. But I really feel the Alza plus the Myvi will cannibalize the Ativa partly due to the features they have now.
True but since perodua is adik toyota, won't get the latest of latest la. Only got first gen acc that has been passed to daihatsu before. 2nd gen safety sense only exclusive to toyota & lexus currently.
Drove the H spect at LTU yesterday with other 1 adult & a kid, it strugglers a bit but ok..handling is 78% nice...the air blower flap works...how tall is the reviewer?
Test drove this vehicle and overall couldn’t complain for the price being reasonable for a 7 seater with many new current safety features. This vehicle looked smart in white but I couldn’t accept the black colour. Probably the external look that I don’t like is the third side window shape design.
being an Ativa owner, the ACC is not meant to be used in corners, its not autonomous, its a smart driver assist, the ACC doesn't turn on bends.but the LSF is very intriguing, kudos Perodua for putting this in a sub 80k car
16:32 Only 4 biji LED of rear brake light n the turn indicators are quite small 17:03 refer to Adrian? 😁 20:03 for the 2nd row of some alza delivered, the gap between the left seat and the right one is quite big, but this test car looks ok
My friend kecam me for this but i think the Alza could pass as a "mpv wagon" due to its low stance. Like the Odyssey RB1 or maybe even Caldina or AD Resort
do agree with GC, not because he is quite handsome..the coil mat from gear up is not quite good. Trap dust very easily and its hard to get rid rather than trapo one. But one thing about perodua, noticed that the 3rd rear light somehow selalu rosak tak menyala. myvi, alza, axia..thats makes who is tailgating perodua car pls be more alert.
Can’t compare Alza and Vios and City as different categories though are same segment. Even so, honestly, Vios and Alza are good but better than City. Both of Vios and Alza comes with BSM, RCTA and 360 camera as City don’t have. Reliability for Vios and Alza are also better than City. Even interior and exterior for Vios and Alza looks nicer than City
@@esk4105 people are comparing anyway. Alza is the most "value for money" sort of. The proof is, within the first week of its launching, there were already almost 30k of bookings, unlike the ativa. It can also be considered as value for money, but not as crazy as Alza
Ikut poket bro. Kalau ade duit, kau bela la honda tu. Kalau honda tu dh mula kikis duit, kau amek alza. Tak guna bela kereta yg meragam. Kalau condition mantap, simpan. Tapi, kalau kau nk upgrade safety, alza lagi baik. Cuma ride dgn premium tu akan downgrade sikit. Test drive dulu. Aku ade sedan yg berat dgn ativa. Best bwk sedan, smooth, naik bonggol lembut. Aku bwk ativa naik bonggol langgar lubang punye la bergoyang kereta. Tapi yela suv kan. Yg best nye ativa lincah. Aku boleh bwk ativa lagi laju dri sedan tu. Sedan takleh ganas sgt nanti sagat. Haha
I Have This One. But Veloz Version. In Indonesia we have Veloz Avanza and Xenia. But Alza more premium than Veloz. Indonesia Not have feature like Alza
5:48 that's quite odd, given the fact that its equivalent, that is the Avanza, gets telescopic adjustment for the 1.5 liter models, which also includes all variants of the Veloz.
but seat and steering position it's quite good for this alza despite didn't have telescopic adjustment i sitting in a driver's seat even my father testing it
A complete upgrade from the previous model. But I would like to say that the interior colour scheme is obnoxious. Why don't they just stick with all black or even black and grey.
@@chanandlerbong9341 I wonder why. Even the latest Proton Saga does the same. But I'm really happy to hear that Android Auto and Apple Carplay is finally available to the Perodua, probs to them and to me a big selling point other than having all those safety features.
It is trend nowaday. Don't you see gamers and every pc now got rgb lighting? Younger people like to play with colours. If it comes with rgb lighting under feet compartment sure everyone will take about it
its based on market research. market loves it. the 40k bookings proves that. Just because you dont like it doesnt mean that everybody else is the same as you.
well i love this car so much especially in white (well my dad love this car in white) we are planning one for us very soon in av variant but for now not to be confirmed with my dad (but i already seen ten units on the public road recently)
The only car review host that never fake accent or pretend to be some gweilo. 🤘
Adrian from wapcar too never puts on an accent. I think you’re thinking of PT guys haha

What accent should I do in my next review? 🥸

Ni antara review yang paling aku suka tengok...lebih jujur tentang kebaikan & keburukan sekali..thank you GC mah..

THIS IS CALLED PROFFESIONAL CAR REVIEWER! LOOKING FORWARD TO YOUR NEXT REVIEW...
The punch lines always hit the mark. Well done. Very informative yet enjoyable review

@@gcmah agree. If 'premium' is used for anything's nice, car reviewers may as well quit their job.
Honest and fair review. Doesn't exaggerated and straight to the point
I watched until the end and not skip the ads as a thank you for your review ❤
If I buy the new Alza, totally because we can plant inside. I am sold!
Somehow that plant seem like a really good idea😂
I also like that the plant was still in the "plant holder" during the on the road review 😂
i also like that, good idea
going green man.......i'll go for a mini cactus.....looks cute
40 000 bookings less than 2 month. Wow, I hope Perodua will be successful someday.
It's easy, I see GC Mah, I click like..
🙋♂️
5.42: it has the setting of acc, lkc, kfc, mcd... Lol. It really makes my day

Finally a car reviewer pointing out just how shitty perodua's ACC is.
camera based ACC is like that. need radar to be accurate
@@PsychedMedia Subaru’s Eyesight is nubbad tho

Great video.

Keep it up.

I love the plant idea 😂👍🌿
good review and honest and i like your definition of premium.
i do feel the seat cover tu macam really aftermarket and not cun enough.
Agreed.
AV version just nice.
The most hilarious is planting a plant in the cup holder....
Antara reviewer kereta terbaik plus hensem pulak tu 👍 jgn marah ar ✌️✌️😅
Eh tak marah.. segan je 😚
@@gcmah ...😅👍😜
Boleh dah tuh tanam musang king dekat cup holder CGM...lagi 5 taun dah boleh makan 😄
Sempoi betul review kereta 😅 part tanam pokok tu semoga pokok tu mengeluarkan hasil ya abang 😂
15:04 2018 Perodua Alza Facelift Passby
The plant idea is marvelous!
LOL y'all turned the cup holders into a pot plant.
A small plant could really fit in. Nice. Now that's ECO friendly.

but the brown and red even silver looks good i seen recently
my heart when he put a plant in the driver cup holder
being an Ativa owner, the ACC is not meant to be used in corners, its not autonomous, its a smart driver assist, the ACC doesn't turn on bends.but the LSF is very intriguing, kudos Perodua for putting this in a sub 80k car
Can this ACC be toggled on or off or its permanent - no choice from driver?
Thanks very honest and blunt review. Enjoy it
Put Flower🪴at the cup holder🤣,but the new Alza is very handsome
Hi..is the mantainance for this new alza budget friendly?
The lock if not mistaken can be changed in the setting where it can unlock all door
Nicely put...
I like this review 👌
How about the sound system?
i trust this reviewer
5:38 Bro, you got me there😂😂
The planting part crack me up lol😂
Hi.. boleh saya tahu berapa RM gear up untuk sarong seat kereta tu?
16:32 Only 4 biji LED of rear brake light n the turn indicators are quite small
17:03 refer to Adrian? 😁
20:03 for the 2nd row of some alza delivered, the gap between the left seat and the right one is quite big, but this test car looks ok
fortunately the rear turn signal is led lights it's quite bright at night-time
About the plant, i think tanam sawit is more better. Kurma also can juga lah kut
Good review CG🤣🤣🤣
Hahaha. Minit ke 13 tu best.. Besar sangat cup holder tu, siap boleh tanam anak pokok.. 🤣.. Harap Perodua take note.
ahahhahahaah boleh hidup tak agak2
That plant idea. Didn't see it coming. LOLOL nice one!
that flower pot wins me........its iconic now....
What is highway comfortable high speed? 130kmh?
Thorbaik...I think you can review in all 3 language fluently la...
is this the Toyota Veloz asian version ?
the plant grow roots into dashboard liao loo😜😜😜
Hahaaha that potted plant 🤣🤣🤣
One of a kind car reviewer who plant a real plant in the cup holder?!! Ouch.. the dirt!
Another good looking host after EuJin at Autobuzz 😉
Good review, but maybe should touch more on the head unit
tht flower pot....is damn classic man
Nice one GC...steady man...growing plants in a cup holder....
Saya suka Alza!
dah test drive ptg td. mmg underpower. berat gler nk tekan mnyk. gear x smooth. kerusi kecik sgt. bumbung sgt rndh.
Imo better than aruz ,lower center of gravity thus better ride less airdrag good for family car engine is 'enough" for Malaysian driver standard.
My friend kecam me for this but i think the Alza could pass as a "mpv wagon" due to its low stance. Like the Odyssey RB1 or maybe even Caldina or AD Resort
Omg AD Resort! Who here remembers that car?
But can you actually associate mpv with wagon? Since wagon usually based on a sedan with a longer rear boot
@@dsleong8328 the same argument i had with my friends. Just the looks only!
@@fahmi29zainal the proportion doesn't looks like a wagon either,the wheel are abit small
do agree with GC, not because he is quite handsome..the coil mat from gear up is not quite good. Trap dust very easily and its hard to get rid rather than trapo one. But one thing about perodua, noticed that the 3rd rear light somehow selalu rosak tak menyala. myvi, alza, axia..thats makes who is tailgating perodua car pls be more alert.
Those are the old normal bulb type 3rd brake lights. The new LED types don't burn out and are far brighter
like both of you and Eugene video.
i have this Alza and really tempted to do the plant thing 😂
Adui color merah kat kerusi x sama dgn kat dashboard. Buruk la. Kasi sama lah baru x nampak mcm after thought.
請問何時引進台灣販售
The repetitive nothing part cracked me up hahahah lawaklah🤣🤣🤣
💁🏻♂️
u grow a plant to maximise oxygen concentration in the cabin hahah, respect u bro
Can't go wrong with this. Bigger than vios, more adas than city hybrid, at the price lower than both of them.

Test drove the car. Don't know why the suspension is so crashy & hard. Even more noticeable if seated at the back. Jalan jauh confirm sakit pinggang.
Review jujur.. nk tanya sebagai penguna honda stream 2011 rasa ok tak saya swap ke alza??.. sbb utama maintance n sparepart??
