What happened

Perodua has extended the RM10,000 rebate on the QV-E until end of October 2026, after originally offering it for Malaysia Day. The rebate stacks with an existing RM6,500 rebate introduced in June, giving up to RM16,500 in total savings — bringing the QV-E to RM53,499 under the battery leasing plan (from RM63,499) or RM77,499 on outright purchase (from RM87,499). Perodua also extended rebates to selected ICE models (Aruz, Ativa, Axia, Bezza, Myvi), but the QV-E discount remains the largest in the lineup.

Why it matters

The leasing-vs-buy maths is the actual story: at RM215/month over a 9-year tenure the battery lease totals RM23,220, so total cost of ownership under leasing is RM76,719 versus RM77,499 outright — a gap of just RM780. If you or a Malaysian team are weighing a QV-E for a pool car or fleet, the decision is now about cash flow and resale/ownership of the battery pack, not the headline sticker price, and the deadline to lock the RM16,500 stack is end of October 2026. Specs for context: 52.5kWh CATL LFP battery, 150kW/285Nm, 370km WLTP, 60kW DC (30–80% in ~30 min) and 6.6kW AC (~8 hours 0–100%).

Discussion angle

Run the RM780 question live: does anyone here actually take the battery lease when the 9-year total is within RM780 of buying outright, and what would make that trade worth it (upfront cash, warranty, resale)?
