It has already proved itself as a pretty stout little unit, delivering impressive everyday performance and fuel economy while being a much more cohesive dance partner to the D-CVT gearbox it debuted locally with. The insider tip-off indicates that Daihatsu will opt for shoving in the same 1.0-litre 1KR-VET found in the Perodua Ativa (and Daihatsu Rocky) for the 2023 Ayla. Though it was modified, it was based on the existing 1.2-litre 3NR-VE that will apparently also be carried over as a base powertrain option. The centrepiece was the engine, of course, which was clearly also used for extensive testing - the collection of closely bunched pipes definitely prioritises function over form despite it being shown off to the public.

This is according to a report by Otodriver which claims to have knowledge of this from an insider source who said that the car could arrive as early as March 2023 since, unlike the Myvi, the Axia is a badge-engineered Ayla developed by Astra Daihatsu and further found sold abroad as the Toyota Agya or Wigo.Īn immediate ‘turbo’ connection here comes in the form of the Daihatsu Ayla Turbo which was shown off at the GAIKINDO Indonesia International Auto Show (GIIAS) in 2018, a running concept vehicle that featured a boosted 1.2-litre engine with 200PS up front. The Perodua Axia is soon to be replaced by an all-new successor within a year or two and rumours are swirling that a turbocharged engine could be on the cards, but it’ll show up in Indonesia first. ![]()
