A few Perodua models have recently entered the Mauritian market. These inexpensive models (about Rs 400,000 new!) from Malaysia have started to gain a rather good reputation especially the Mivy. Some driving tutors are even considering using them.
So I said, let me read about the company… and tada, it’s 58% owned by UMW Toyota and Daihatsu (which is a subsidiary of Toyota!). They even share the factory that buids the Toyota Avanza!
No wonder that Daihatsu models are the basis of Perodua cars:
Daihatsu Mira -> Perodua Viva
Daihatsu Sirion -> Toyota Passo/Duet -> Perodua Mivy
Daihatsu Trevis -> Perodua Kelisa
and some more like the Toyota Rush/Daihatsu Terios… Nek manque the Toyota Camry/Daihatsu Altis to come next 
What about your views? How do you find Perodua vehicles?
