Regarding the power engine, both cars are equipped with a 1.5 NA engine, providing a maximum horsepower of 105 PS and a power of 138N·m. The Toyota Veloz's fuel consumption of 5.2L/100km is higher than the Perodua Alza's 4.6L/100km, which may be due to the heavier body weight.

Both cars use front-wheel drive, with MacPherson Independent Suspension for the front suspension and Torsion Beam Independent Suspension for the rear suspension.
