Perodua_Axia_Advance_ 001

Exports of the Perodua Axia are set to begin from the second half of this year. Perodua made the announcement at the ongoing Myvi 10th Anniversary presentation to the media, but did not state which countries the A-segment offering will be exported to.

Currently, Perodua exports its products to six markets - Indonesia, Singapore, Fiji, Nepal, Mauritius and Sri Lanka, so it should be expected that the car will be heading to most, if not all, of these.

The five-door hatchback is of course based on the Daihatsu Ayla sold in Indonesia, so a move to bring it there, if it happens, will bring it head to head against the car that brought it about.

Having been developed and manufactured with global standards, Perodua says that it has managed to meet most of, if not all, of the KPIs for the car, quality-wise, setting it up to be exported.

On the subject, the automaker adds that it will be more aggressive with exports from 2017 onwards, and is currently consolidating and putting things in place things to make that happen.
