Recently, I believe you all had saw Toyota come out with a new suv called Toyota Rush which is 7 seater. One of the good news is, the new Perodua Kembara will based on Daihatsu Be-Go or known as Toyota Rush in our country.
However, the Perodua Kembara will be short wheel based version of Daihatsu Be-Go/ Toyota Rush. Basically, the Perodua Kembara have some shadow of second generation Toyota RAV4. So we could expect that this new Kembara will get good response as it is very good looking car.
Perodua Kembara will be a 5 seater 4WD SUV which is different than the long wheel based Toyota Rush which is 7 seater 2WD SUV.
It is powered by a newly developed engine called “TOPAZ” engine which is a 1.5 DOHC 16V DVVT engine and it comes with full time 4WD with a center differential lock. This engine will able to produces 105hp at 6000rpm and 140Nm of torgue at 4400rpm. The compact SUV has a kerb weight of 1190kg. The fuel consumption of this new engine is considered reasonable with 16 cent per km.
Here are the interior of Daihatsu Be-Go.
Another version's interior but i think this version will not available as standard.

The Perodua Kembara will be CBU model which is imported from Indonesia plant. The price are still yet to be confirmed but we can expect it will be around 60k or 70k. So it is still consider a very affordable SUV in the market.
*Little update on 29 March 2008: The new Kembara will be CBU ( Completely built up) model imported from JAPAN (Not Indonesia). The price tag is expected to be higher than Toyota Rush due to Higher spec and 4WD drive train and Japan sourcing. Means we will get a better equipted Kembara compare with Rush with price tag above 85K. WOW! KEMBARA at 85K! Lol.
