it looks so sad.

Persona production will be stopped once this P3-<something> launched. Even Persona now has been green lighted to be used as taxi beginning from last year.

yalo yalo, inspira is such a pariah car that the only car it PAWNED is its own ORIGINAL Lancer brother.

yalo hoh, ciplak campro with mivec. That CVT is made by who ah? PROTOCO ah?

you can always do it by submitting your proposal to the Proton COsE and wait two months for your customized product.

Just have to prepare the necessary moolah for it.

If you mean the CVT manufacturer, yes its PROTOCO PUNCH.

still too new. Don't think anyone had clocked in 200,000km on their FLX or EB yet.

hopefully by few years time, the box price will be down. It is RM22.5k currently for VT2. VT3 should be more expensive I guess.

ECU also changed aah.

Toyota is using the one made by Fuji Heavy Industry (Subaru). Toyota has some shares in FHI.

Honda not very sure. Also own house developed I guess.

BTW, the VT2 and VT3 is a continuation of the original VT1 used in the Mini One CVT and also Rover. Hyundai did toyed with the VT1 but it was dropped in favour for its own house developed 6-speed auto box we can see everywhere now in their Sonata, Tucson and Optima.

those are proton internal slides and are meant for internal circulation only, not for the public.

as for the CVT Reliability, its a gamble. All I could say is, if you really tempted then just gather up your courage to try it or else you can just stick with the usual, more conservative T&H B segments. So far, I've clocked more than 11,000km in my VT2 and so far so good. No unwanted incidents happening to my CVT yet. The only concern about belt based CVT is the durability of the belt itself. I am ready for it in case it snaps.

people give tin kosong with four wheels and a steering wheel to drive, complain

people give loaded tin with a lot of gizmos and toys with four wheels and a steering wheel to drive, complain

complain complain complain complain complain.

err... Honda City (malaysian spec)

CVT also got sound mah

wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee~

no, no CPS involved

instead this is an engine build ground up from the basic Campro itself. The basic Campro in talk is the one with the notorious with torque dip issue.

my foot lah, first batch tak ada CVT cooler

first batch FLX has the problem with CVT clutch pump and fuel hose. Not all FLX is affected but still Proton make a recall on all FLX and replace the affected parts FOC.

if Proton repeat that same mistake, I guess all Exora Bold now will jerk like hell during pick up from stationary and rpm too low during idling which leads to potential engine stalling.

all I know is, this new car (the Premium spec one), just have to pijak to 2,000-4,000 rpm then air will be feed into the turbocharger, witchcraft happens then the car goes faster.

1.6 IAFM+ manual
1.6 IAFM+ 6 speed CVT
1.6 CFE 7 speed CVT

sorry ah, FLX SE is also CVT

perhaps its due to the weight difference.
The Sylphy is a lighter car than the Inspira BTW. Almost 100kg lighter.

mundane sound of engine? Let your own foot to decide what engine note you want to hear then.
