Evidently all these 140km/j "source" came from one single source ;Mr Naz. They just quote his "proton.sales" blog and say its an insider source. Pretty sure they copy paste, and claimed it as an interview.

New age journo.

So any rumors of the name? PR1MA? PREVE?

how about, "Mati? Tiada kemungkinan dengan Proton! "

"Dengar cerita tarikh pelancaran model ini ditunda hingga ke hujung Mac, atas sebab-sebab yang tak dapat dielakkan. Nama model ini masih lagi menjadi tanda tanya, ada yang kata bermula dari huruf P & hujungnya bukan lagi berakhir dengan A, yang pasti kata sumber tu perkataan yang dijadikan nama model ini BUKAN perkataan Bahasa Malaysia/Inggeris… JOM KITA TEKA"

If this is true then it's not bad. Next car with 7 airbags is 80k, but smaller.

Would be nice if the base spec has 4 airbags though.

Not sure what the point of WiFi is... you still need to pay, right? My phone can also be used as a WiFi router, and is a satnav at the same time. And I can also use the internet when not in the car. Or do they simply put in a WiFi router, and you plug in your internet stick? Sounds like a feature that costs money just because a few want to use it. Why not add it later, should you want it? (All WP7 phones AFAIK can be WiFi routers, and some Android too... iPhone no clue).

Its just YES Huddle, hopefully you can take out and use as well. I'm using my Huddle in my car now for that as well (dun have data plan, and wifi uses less phone batt than 3G =p)

Our Proton Saga just got 3 Star?

haha... if send to EUROncap... not even can achieve 1 star

Why should that be? Apparently you're just bashing mindlessly

actually ancap procedures are the same as euroncap. They also take euroncap rating for some all cars for ancap reference.

Being influence by euroncap, many think that it is the ultimate crash testing. They only tests certain crash test only. Only one frontal test impact in euroncap,that is 40% offset. Actually they are more than 5 frontal impact test for crash testing such offset, full frontal impact, wall barrier impact, low barrier impact n high barrier impact(for compatibilty problem between big car vs small), truck or lorry rear end with car frontal,pedestrian crash test n etc.

U can search for other makes showing that and maybe look at exora frontal test,more than 5 sets of test they tested at idiada. Euroncap also doesnt include rear end crash test,bumper impact test, roll over test(maybe coz euro have soft top version of cars) n etc.

But it is a good one coz atleast we as end users have reference for crash testing. It is costly to do all, coz euro ncap only buy cars own their own, only one that they think popular or will be popular,one that caught their attention. For all manufacturers,in europe, they have another body that govern this, so that only those are exceed minimum requirements of safety can be sold in europe,but not euroncap.

Shud see the result of the crash(marks) rather than the star. A car can get same star rating but diff marks in crash test like saga frontal get 9++ for frontal over 16,still get 3 stars, while cherry got only below 5 over 16 for frontal,but also get 3 stars in ancap. Its simply because other passive safety equipments marks add up the marks for star rating. While saga tested only equip with only dual airbags,while cherry also have dual airbags,but also abs,ebd n isofix.

U can also look for forte n kia rondo which get 4 stars. Frontal marks for rondo also near the same as saga, but get 4 stars due to additional 2 more airbags n equipments including seatbelt buzzer n reminder.

If u look at 5 stars euroncap yaris vs 5 stars euroncap camry, 5 stars jazz/fit vs 5 stars accord, watch it in youtube,than u know how important to test out whether it has compatibility problem or not, or the end result will be catastrophy even with 5 stars to smaller cars versus big cars.

If there is a special body govern that can coverup all the test,then, we can say that the car is really safe. But then, we only have to accept euroncap or other ncap result even still have validity problems on certain areas.

Do u think that open top car@soft top car is safe for occupant if test through roll over test?

Cause proton mah... i heard if you scrape off the paints you can still see "Milo" written inside...

This is actually what old peopel say about Jap cars umpteenth years ago when Japanese car first hit our shores...

Another educational post from mat79

I thought in those crash test they paint the stars on the front fender, then after the crash test they count how many stars left

actually from all the ncap video i see,i just wanna see can the door be opened or not after the frontal impact. or the shape of the door.

waja did pretty bad on this. the good example is 308thp and fiesta.

i think really typo taken from the source and the source some more was not reliable. well it is all unofficial news. i don't believe anything yet except of the photos of P3-21A. let's wait for the official news. no point believing or "bashing" on rumors. Although the rumors specs are pretty darn impressive.

the crash test of 140km/j did mind-f'ed my mind LOL!
