In Bangladesh, the Perodua Aruz appeals to those seeking the height of an SUV and seven seats, without the hefty price tag of Japanese SUVs over 50 lakh. Many folks in local Facebook car groups and community discussions mention that they considered the Toyota Rush but ultimately chose the Aruz because of its slightly lower price. Still, they note that reconditioned Japanese crossovers are strong alternatives in this price range.
