That Estima is quite old already...

more wear and tear to be expected

and also the rubbers all also starting to worn out already since it has harden given the long age.

for the pick up, it has two reason which caused the "slowness"

one is the slightly delay pedal response and secondly, it was due to the weight. If you have got used to driving a normal sedan car, you'll feel MPV and SUVs are a bit slow off the line due to the weight difference.

I think the initial slow pick up is due to turbo lag but once you are in the right gear and rpm, then you feel the intoxicating rush of POWERRRR

The L gear is just to engage short gear ratio, means more brisk acceleration, hence, the delay isn't noticeable.

and last part, is the engine.. i took some hit with the test drive unit with some hard pushing on my golden right foot, and the SA looks like  sweat.gif ... the acceleration was superb.. i didnt turn on the radio so that i could feel the engine rev.. i could hear some hard revving when i push the pedal hard to move the exora, and i think its the CFE that have been activated when it reached 90kmj.. but the gear shifting still smooth.. thanks to the CVT..

ini your own statement or your SA kencing you one? lol

I would recommend you not to put much expectation on the highway performance. The top end speed is more or less similar to the old Exora. But then, reaching 110kph is effortless.

Good work from proton, ppl need to have a little faith in them. Nevertheless, its not the engineering i am worry about, it is the qc.

Btw, flx se can reach 190??
*
1.3 alone can reach 185, let alone the 1.6 SE

Exora Bold (~RM80k) is it equip with CFE+CVT g/box or only just for the Premium spec (~RM90K)??
*
Exora Bold alone already have CFE and CVT

The more expensive Exora prime shares the same driveterain, but with more luxurious interior (captain seats, individual DVD player, full leather upholstery)

A commenter in paultan said he pressed hard on accelerometer and the car didn't really moved fast until it reached 2000rpm. So I guessed the pickup was weak below 2000rpm.

I can't comprehend why people love to full throttle when testing cars, especially cars equipped with CVT.

just like wan tan mee, the seller might profit Rm2 per plate out of the RM 4.50 he charged. The only "consolation prize" we get is, we walked out with a full stomach.

Attention to all potential buyers, be known that after the new platform ( tuah ) launching, the Exora engine will be updated to Mivec 1.8 & 2.0 and the cfe still on the list, so you had lot of choices after this

do read more posts from mat79 in persona r thread. iafm+ not found in any proton cars yet.

iafm+ solves the low end torque problem where max torque arrives earlier at low rpm than predeccesors.

two radiator fans of coz it is loud lo. haha.

But then, it is normal for the loudness. At least when you're in the cabin, the sound isn't that noticeable, unlike that empty coke can saga.
