Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between Ativa X and H?
H adds 17-inch wheels (vs X's 16-inch), a 7" TFT instrument cluster, a 9" touchscreen with Smartlink, front corner sensors, a reverse camera, auto-folding mirrors, LED front fog lamps, auto headlamp ON-OFF, Adaptive Driving Beam, rear USB ports and HDMI. X keeps Auto High Beam instead of ADB, and has an illuminated open console tray rather than a padded armrest.
Is Ativa H worth upgrading from X?
H is RM4,800 more (RM67,300 vs RM62,500 for metallic paint). You get the bigger wheels, reverse camera, front corner sensors, a proper touchscreen infotainment system and auto-folding mirrors — practical upgrades most daily drivers will notice. It's the sweet spot if you don't need the full AV driver-assist suite.
Is Ativa AV worth the additional price over H?
AV is RM5,300 more (RM72,600 vs RM67,300 for metallic paint). You get Adaptive Cruise Control, Lane Keep Control, Blind Spot Monitor, Rear Cross Traffic Alert, a built-in dash cam, solar/security window film, leather seats, 6 speakers with tweeters, chrome door handles and front floor illumination. Worth it if the full driver-assist suite and premium trim matter more than price.
Which Ativa variant has a reverse camera?
Only Ativa H and AV have a reverse camera and front corner sensors. Ativa X relies on the standard rear corner sensor.
Does every Ativa variant have Advanced Safety Assist (A.S.A.)?
Yes — all three variants get the core A.S.A. bundle (pre-collision warning/braking, pedal misoperation control, front departure alert) plus Lane Departure Warning and Lane Departure Prevention as standard.
Why does Ativa X have Auto High Beam but H and AV don't?
Per the official brochure footnotes, Auto High Beam (AHB) is X-only, while Adaptive Driving Beam (ADB) is fitted to H and AV instead. They're different headlamp-assist technologies — you get one or the other, not both.
What features are standard across all Ativa variants?
All three Ativa variants share the same 1.0L turbo engine, D-CVT transmission, 6 airbags, ABS/VSC/TRC, Hill Hold Assist, ISOFIX anchors, smart entry with push-start, the core A.S.A. bundle, lane departure warning/prevention, a rear corner sensor, 303/369L boot tiers and 200mm ground clearance.
