Perodua Kelisa
How It Looks - Exterior
The Kelisa is a compact supermini which has contemporary styling with teardrop shaped headlights and the front grille adds a chrome smile to the Kelisa's face. The EX model has plastic finish bumpers and tailgate moulding - protective side and corner moulding's are available as cost options.
The EX model has steel wheels as standard although alloy wheels are available as a cost option on this model.
How It Looks - Interior
The Kelisa has a deceptively spacious interior and this is because
of its relatively long wheelbase for a car of this size. The interior
styling is both functional and uncluttered with three large circular
instruments for conveying speed, engine revs and temperature/fuel
status. There are rotary dials for heat and directional adjustment
and below them is a centre console which houses the optional in-car
entertainment system.
The lights and wash/wipe functions are on column stalks which are
positioned either side of the sports-style steering wheel which
also incorporates two buttons for the horn which are on either side of the airbag housing and have a particularly amusing tone.
The cloth upholstery is practical and should prove durable in the long term as does the vinyl roof lining. The glove box and door pockets also provide useful areas for storage.
