This is certainly eye-raising – a new set of spyshots have emerged, depicting the Perodua QV-E in new camo. The new camo is vastly different from the first time we’ve seen the QV-E.
More importantly, the new camo seems to hide what appears to be the Perodua QV-E’s production-ready body. Earlier spyshots of the EV showed it with body cladding to hide its body lines, as well as a massive faux wing.
This time, however, it seems like we can gradually make out more details. For example, the rear spoiler now looks more production-ready, versus the outlandish one seen earlier.
Furthermore, these new spyshots also show the model with a hidden rear door handle, much like the Honda HR-V. Said detail was also seen on the preview car that was shown at the Malaysia Autoshow 2025.
A different angle of the Perodua QV-E in new camo also showed the model with a rather prominent rear-end – a detail that was previously obscured by body cladding.

Crucially, when the Perodua QV-E launches later this year, it will introduce Battery-as-a-Service (BaaS) – a battery leasing service that is currently unavailable in Malaysia.
This is Perodua’s method of ensuring that resale value of the QV-E doesn’t suffer in the future, as well as ensuring that the cost of the EV is kept affordable.
Initial specifications shown during KLIMS 2024 revealed that Perodua QV-E could offer a 0-100 km/h sprint time of between six to seven seconds. Its CATL-sourced lithium iron phosphate (LFP) battery pack could offer better 400 to 410 km of range.
