The Perodua Viva is a city car manufactured by Malaysian automaker Perodua since 10 May 2007. It was originally planned to be the replacement of Perodua's current city cars - the Perodua Kancil and the Perodua Kelisa. Once launched, Perodua decided to market it as a Kelisa replacement only, and will continue to sell the Kancil. Though later in the Viva's life, with the introduction of the 660 BX, the Viva finally replaced the Kancil. The Perodua Viva is based on the 7th generation Daihatsu Mira. All of the Perodua Viva models use Daihatsu DVVT engines. The name "Viva" is derived from the Italian word, viva meaning "long live".
