The Philippines won’t be the only ASEAN market that will get the upcoming 2024 Toyota Wigo with the smaller 1.0-liter engine. Toyota launched the new Wigo in Cambodia on July 11, 2023, alongside the Toyota Yaris Cross. According to our friends from sister publication WapCar, the subcompact hatchback is powered by a 1.0-liter, twin-cam, 12-valve inline-3 gasoline engine producing 68 PS and 91 Nm of torque.

The all-new Perodua Axia was previewed in Malaysia on February 8, 2023, with uncamouflaged photos coming out the same day. The hatchback is the Malaysian sibling of the upcoming Daihatsu Ayla and our very own Toyota Wigo, the latter launching globally on February 13, 2023. Our colleagues have also been able to drive the new hatchback, which uses the Daihatsu New Global Architecture platform and replaces the old 4-speed automatic with a continuously variable transmission.
