The Perodua Rusa is a cab over microvan manufactured by the Malaysian automaker Perodua between 1996 and 2007, and based on the Daihatsu Zebra. Launched on March 6, 1996, the Rusa is the first van model to be produced by a Malaysian automotive company.[1] The original model received a 1.3-litre engine,[1] complemented by a 1.6-litre model in May 1997.
Etymology
The vehicle's name "Rusa" is the Malay translation of "Deer".[2] Later replaced by the Perodua logo, the van's original logo was a galloping deer.
History
Perodua Rusa received almost 3,000 bookings on its launch day.[1] At launch, Rusa was priced between RM 34,000 for the standard model and RM 39,200 for the deluxe models.[1]
Models
Three variations of the Rusa vans were offered: The CX (1.3-litre, two-seat version), the EX (1.3 litre, five-seat version) and the GX (1.6-litre, seven-seat version). The CX is primarily intended to serve as a cargo vehicle, while the EX and GX are intended for private use. The van is also used by Malaysian police and fire fighting forces. The engines were both of Daihatsu origins, from that company's H engine family.
