2019 Proton Iriz Review


No one expected that when Perodua introduced the Perodua Myvi, it would be the default choice for young and old buyers alike. Since its introduction in 2005, more than 1 million units of the Myvi rolled off the production floors.

Proton is extremely late to the five-door hatchback game – I highlight five-door specifically because the national carmaker had a three-door Satria Neo hatchback. Only presenting its Myvi contender, the Proton Iriz in 2014 when our current Premier, Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad was then the Chairman of Proton.
Malaysians were sold on its looks and were equally.The Proton Exora was first launched in 2009, 

thus making it nearly a decade old now. Most manufacturers will keep their models for around five to 

seven years before replacing it with a new model.

To be fair, the similarly priced Perodua Alza is just as old as the Exora but unlike the Alza, the Exora 

has been given several significant improvements including a new turbocharged (but still port 


injection) engine, and more recently, a vastly improved infotainment system.
