Perodua’s Malaysian Alza specification table prints luggage capacity as 137/498 litres, with the larger entry labelled for the third-row seat down. A comparison that keeps only 498 litres loses the seating condition attached to that figure.
The checked AV, H and X entries also list seven seats. Those are different specification fields: the stated seating capacity does not mean the largest luggage figure describes a trip with every seat occupied.
Write the passenger requirement first
| Your task | What the comparison needs |
|---|---|
| Carry passengers in the third row | The luggage entry and usable space with that row required |
| Carry extra bags with the third row unused | The documented folded-seat condition and actual package shapes |
| Change the passenger count during a trip | A separate luggage plan for each configuration |
Do not add 137 and 498 together. They describe alternative entries, not two independent compartments that supply a combined total. Similarly, a litre figure does not establish whether a rigid case will pass through an opening or fit in a particular orientation.
A practical comparison record
For each offer, record the country, exact variant, required seating state and the bags or cases that matter to you. Leave room for an actual fit check of the offered vehicle. This makes a showroom visit answer a specific question instead of asking whether the boot is generally “big”.
We would keep the original capacity notation and its condition visible in the worksheet. That is an editorial comparison method, not a physical loading test or advice about securing a load.
Our Myvi seat-layout guide addresses the related distinction between seat functions and a luggage requirement. More examples are in Buying Guides.
