The 2024 Perodua Axia has received significant updates compared to the previous model, particularly in terms of its engine and fuel efficiency. Here’s a detailed comparison of the engine specifications between the new 2024 Perodua Axia and the older model:

Engine Specification Comparison

1. 2024 Perodua Axia

  • Engine Type: 1KR-VE 1.0L 3-Cylinder DOHC with VVT-i
  • Displacement: 998 cc
  • Maximum Power: 67 hp @ 6,000 rpm
  • Maximum Torque: 91 Nm @ 4,400 rpm
  • Transmission: D-CVT (Dual-Mode CVT)
  • Fuel Efficiency: Around 27.4 km/l (claimed by Perodua under EEV standards)

2. Old Perodua Axia (2019-2022)

  • Engine Type: 1KR-VE 1.0L 3-Cylinder DOHC with VVT-i
  • Displacement: 998 cc
  • Maximum Power: 67 hp @ 6,000 rpm
  • Maximum Torque: 91 Nm @ 4,400 rpm
  • Transmission: 4-Speed Automatic or 5-Speed Manual
  • Fuel Efficiency: Around 22.5 km/l

What’s Special About the New 2024 Axia Engine?

  1. D-CVT (Dual-Mode CVT):
    • The most significant upgrade in the 2024 Axia is the D-CVT (Dual-Mode Continuously Variable Transmission), replacing the older 4-speed automatic. This new transmission enhances fuel efficiency and delivers smoother acceleration. The D-CVT can switch between belt-driven and gear-driven modes, reducing friction and improving efficiency during high-speed driving.
    • Why it’s special: This technology allows the Axia to perform more efficiently, especially in urban traffic and highway conditions, contributing to better fuel economy.
  2. Enhanced Fuel Efficiency:
    • The new 2024 Axia is claimed to be one of the most fuel-efficient cars in its class, with an impressive 27.4 km/l. This is a significant improvement over the older model’s fuel efficiency, which was around 22.5 km/l. The engine remains the same 1.0L 3-cylinder, but the introduction of the D-CVT transmission and fine-tuning of the engine control unit (ECU) contribute to this leap in fuel economy.
    • Why it’s special: Perodua’s focus on making the Axia more eco-friendly and cost-effective is evident with these improvements. The enhanced fuel efficiency makes it ideal for budget-conscious consumers who want to save on fuel costs.
  3. Energy Efficient Vehicle (EEV) Status:
    • The 2024 Axia continues to qualify under Malaysia’s Energy Efficient Vehicle (EEV) standards, making it one of the greenest cars in the market. The EEV status is achieved by optimizing the engine and improving the vehicle’s aerodynamics.
    • Why it’s special: This not only reduces the environmental impact but also qualifies the car for government incentives, making it an affordable option with long-term savings.

Conclusion

The 2024 Perodua Axia stands out for its combination of the D-CVT transmission, enhanced fuel efficiency, and compliance with EEV standards. These updates make it not just more efficient than the old model, but also one of the most fuel-efficient vehicles in its segment. The technological advancements, particularly in the transmission, set the new Axia apart as a highly economical and environmentally friendly option for urban driving
