Perodua Launches the All-New Traz SUV and Alza Seven-Seater MPV

Two five-star ASEAN NCAP-rated models broaden Perodua’s offering with fuel-efficient, practical mobility for Sri Lankan families and businesses

Unimo Enterprises Limited, a fully owned subsidiary of United Motors Lanka PLC and the authorised distributor for Perodua vehicles in Sri Lanka, officially unveiled the all-new Perodua Traz and Perodua Alza at Cinnamon Lakeside, Colombo. The introduction of the five-seater Traz SUV and seven-seater Alza MPV expands Perodua’s local portfolio with two distinct mobility solutions designed around, high efficiency, safety, comfort and everyday practicality and affordable price.

The launch brought together representatives of Perodua Malaysia, the leadership of United Motors Lanka PLC and Unimo Enterprises Limited, corporate partners, financial institutions, customers, media and other industry stakeholders. It follows the introduction of the Ativa and Myvi to Sri Lanka and reflects Unimo Enterprises’ strategy of offering a broader range of trusted Perodua vehicles for changing customer lifestyles.

The Malaysian manufacturer recorded 359,904 vehicle registrations in 2025 in Malaysia and estimated its domestic market share at 43.9%, reinforcing the scale, customer acceptance and manufacturing experience behind the brand. In Sri Lanka, this global capability is complemented by United Motors Lanka PLC’s established automotive expertise and islandwide aftersales support.

The all-new Perodua Traz strengthens the brand’s presence in the increasingly important compact SUV segment. Its contemporary stance, spacious five-seat cabin and adaptable storage are intended for urban commuting, family travel and the varied demands of daily life. Convenience features available on the model include rear air-conditioning vents and a powered tailgate with a kick sensor, while its 1.5-litre powertrain is engineered to balance responsive everyday performance with economical operation.

Perodua reports fuel efficiency of 21.3 km/l for the Traz under the Malaysian Driving Conditions. The model also achieved a five-star ASEAN NCAP rating. ASEAN NCAP’s report identifies six airbags, Vehicle stability control, autonomous emergency braking for city, inter-urban and pedestrian scenarios, blind-spot detection, lane-departure warning, forward-collision warning, lane-keep assist and ISOFIX child-seat anchorages among the safety provisions fitted as standard across the assessed variants.

The Perodua Alza is a versatile seven-seater MPV created for customers who require genuine passenger capacity without sacrificing manoeuvrability or efficiency. Flexible seating allows the cabin to adapt between people and luggage, making it suitable for larger families, school and office travel, leisure journeys and business mobility. With the third row folded, luggage capacity increases from 137 litres to 498 litres, adding useful flexibility for daily and longer-distance travel.

Powered by a 1.5-litre Dual VVT-i engine paired with a D-CVT transmission, the Alza delivers a manufacturer-stated fuel-efficiency figure of up to 22.0 km/l under the Malaysian Driving Condition. It too carries a five-star ASEAN NCAP rating. The assessed Alza included six airbags, together with vehicle stability control, anti-lock braking, autonomous emergency braking and front and rear seatbelt reminders, providing independently evaluated reassurance for family-focused customers.

“The arrival of the Traz and Alza marks another important step in broadening the choices available to Sri Lankan motorists. Customers today are looking beyond the initial purchase price; they want fuel efficiency that helps manage day-to-day running costs, practical space and dependable aftersales support. These two models address those needs in different yet complementary ways.

To date, more than 20,000 Perodua vehicles have been sold in Sri Lanka. Since the lifting of vehicle import restrictions in 2025, we have sold close to 3,000 vehicles, clearly demonstrating the strong trust Sri Lankan customers continue to place in the brand. Supported by Perodua’s proven manufacturing capabilities and the United Motors Group’s extensive sales and service network, we are confident that the Traz and Alza will further strengthen this trust among Sri Lankan families and businesses,” said Mr. Chanaka Yatawara, Group Chief Executive Officer and Executive Director of United Motors Lanka PLC.

Perodua customers are served through showrooms at Hyde Park Corner, Kandy, Kurunegala, Ratnapura and Matara. Aftersales support is available through a wider network covering Hyde Park Corner, Orugodawatta, Ratmalana, Ratnapura, Matara, Kandy, Kurunegala, Batticaloa, Anuradhapura and Jaffna.
