if we want to compare.....

1) Fuel consumption
2) safety (eg. how many airbag, how fast its can be stop while driving maybe 100km/h...etc), if really hit, body it-self will hit the driver not??>
3) Brand name (not the name already died many2 times)
4) the origin of the car (not copy / taken or steal fr other manufacturer design, engine capability(can stand hi-rev not?),)
5) 2nd-hand selling value
6) wether its environment friendly...
7) wether it user friendly (feature inside car)
8) reliability of that car...
9) maintenance (roadtax, insurance)
AND so on, son on.............is PROTON mature enough to compete without TONGKAT ALI fr our GOV.....

I was with my friend's on a trip to Kulai. RM81 for 630KM on highway. Avg speed is 120-140KM/hr. Not the best fuel consumption. But i consider acceptable.

2) safety (eg. how many airbag, how fast its can be stop while driving maybe 100km/h...etc), if really hit, body it-self will hit the driver not??>

4 on Preve.

3) Brand name (not the name already died many2 times)

Don't understand

4) the origin of the car (not copy / taken or steal fr other manufacturer design, engine capability(can stand hi-rev not?),)

I think most of the Campro problem occured on 1st GEN2... Didn't heard any these days... But I can't be sure...

Originality...? U mean Mitsubishi???? Oh, they just bought over the Exora and Persona to study for rebadging... As a return, they gave Lancer as Inspira....


Or u're saying Forte and Preve..? Preve design was back then during the Tuah concept... Who coppied who..? Lolx

Mitsubishi to rebadge Proton car ! - Autoworld Forum

Share technology is common in Automotive... Volvo, Mazda too, uses Mitsu's chassis. Hyundai once uses Mitsubishi's engine as well.

Lotus uses Toyota engine. And the list goes on...



5) 2nd-hand selling value

Still consider good in compare with Korean made

6) wether its environment friendly...

Hmmm are we truely ready for environment friendly..? According to Jeremy Clarkson, nope... Human are still not ready to safe the world as long as automotive is concern. Any idea where does the battery pack and the electricity comes from..?

7) wether it user friendly (feature inside car)

Not too bad for a 20 year old brand. They almost have everything in latest models.

8) reliability of that car...

I cannot be sure abt this... But I've also seen VIOS and lamborghini burnt in the middle of the road.

9) maintenance (roadtax, insurance)
AND so on, son on.............is PROTON mature enough to compete without TONGKAT ALI fr our GOV.....

Maintenance wise, at least they aren't like koreans. Sikit2 void warranty.

As for the compete, Actually one of the most stupid model Malaysian thinks, the Arena.. Is competing in Australia with other makers till today

For the past 6 years... Proton has struggle and made tremendous changes under the administration of Dato Syed Zainal Abidin. There are numerous changes that took place...

If u look at the Tengku Mahaleel's GEN 2 and DSZ's Persona... They were from the same platform. But Interior and exterior... U'll definitely notice the effort that took place...

Under the administration of DSZ, I think Proton has much improved. But who knows what's gonna be the future of Proton since DSZ has left.

I'm worried too.....

Inspira can't be compared with the proton cars, the car is however still from Lancer Origin
be it some of the parts are local made. The chassis is the same as Lancer...Is not a milo tin,
real solid. I would say from what I felt from the body is even more solid than Vios or Altis 9th Gen.

Proton cars are not too bad, just they have to really take QUALITY seriously in their cars. If not, how to
compete with other brands? Most people buy proton not cuz they like the car, is just cuz is more affordable.
If anyone have a choice, everyone would choose any other brands except proton.

Is true that their resale value is however higher than Korean cars, but is just because there are more demand for it.
Not cuz it is real good.

If the quality is good, I wouldn't mind getting the Satria Neo R3. Not the brand that counts, is what u can offer
the customers. We just want assurance of its quality and a car that wont disappoint us much with its countless problems.
A reliable and fun to drive car is what we want.

Proton and AP are both the same... they team up to tipu rakyat duit and to protect proton... So.. now do you see any foreign cars that is almost the same price as the saga? or perodua Myvi?
