Did anyone notice this plastic cover. I'm quite surprise and hope anyone who know, why they put that?

5 years warranty or 150,000km

bro. how to open the boot via remote? saw the key, only have lock, open and alarm button...

press the second button and hold it for few seconds, it will release 

Seriously, proton have to consider the pricing, the new hyundai elantra (avante) is selling in south korea from RM40,000 to RM52,000. If 90% of material is sourced from here, why is proton's price tag from RM60K. Check out this site http://www.automotifme.com/2011-hyundai-el...aavante-review/

Cause price of all cars are being jacked up by the govt to protect Proton.

So.... why sell Preve for RM40k when there are buyers even if you sell RM72k? Why cut your own profit margin...

I was under the impression P1/P2 get some tax incentive? Or i kena conned liao?

rear also broken

i wonder how the sales agent manage the crowd. i guess someone trying to create an issue here. 1 thing i notice, malaysians tak kisah pun pegi showroom proton ketuk kaw2 kereta everywhere, but when at Honda/Toyota/Nissan showroom..semua jadi polite. takde pulak knock here and there.

Just now I saw Preve on the road.. So I accelerate to potong him but he accelerate even faster.. LOL.. I was driving vios..

Denggggggg..... The engine tested not bad.... but the interior still have bad plastic material... the looks ok... engine components perhaps it is still acceptable but the interior material seems to be fail.... try to turn the steering and hold the signal hahahahahahahaha.... i cracked it.... after that it wont return to normal.... this shows that the signal mechanism is not using any spring perhaps using abs plastic design with spring effect...

conclusion, at this price i think it is good for those ppl wan to play play car.... but for those who want to have more comfort, piece of mind and free of modding.... perhaps get Audi or Volvo.. Vios hahaha forget it unless u goin to retire lols

Just test drove earlier (If anyone saw a red Preve zipping through the Connaught highway at highspeed around 4-5pm, that's probably me  )

I think izputra has covered most of what I thought, I just like to add my piece re the engine performance.

Compared to my FLX SE, the 1k-2k RPM (before the turbo kicks in) is really sluggish, as if the 1.6 NA is struggling to move the car. The CVT is probably to blame, but nonetheless it's there.

As said before, after 2k the turbo kicks in and that's where the car really starts to move. In D gear, the transition is smooth, almost unnoticable, BUT once you hit 2K and decides to release the pedal, the car jerks pretty hard due to engine braking, this could affect driving comfort in stop and go traffic. Also, the CVT seems reluctant to go to higher RPM, I would press the pedal hard and somehow the car decides to stay at 2k RPM, I was like WTFISTHISSHIT.

The real fun is when you use the paddle shifters. In this mode the cars feel utterly alive and so much more responsive than in D. Whereas in D the RPM rises very slow, with the paddle shifters you can simply downshift and off it goes. This part was by far the most satisfying part of the test drive.

I pity those who bought the IAFM+ variant, because they too will encounter the same sluggish response from 1k-2k RPM, except the 205Nm will never come, ever. So if you are going for the IAFM+, please do yourself a favour and get the manual instead.

Also, unbelievably, the dashboard rattled halfway through my test drive 

good2, so many comments. If not mistakenlah, full manual mode need to push to side the lever. Erm, about the crack signal stalk, is it crack or sound crack coz u still hold the stalk even after turning the steering, n dont go back normal, is it means that the signal stalk not return back to neutral postion. If that the case, normal, not broken. But if physically crack, then its abnormal.

Centre console button near h u some are indicators only, not button.

About rattles, i think need to check whether come from the un properly closed glove box or the compartment near the driver's side,under the steering. Being subject of abuse, u knowlah,ha...ha...,but its good to abuse coz then know bleh tahan atau x, either hard way or the highway,ops sorry, malaysian way :-).

I think prtn listen to all the comments. Just my thought.

Even some saying interior mcm taik, langgar yellow line gegar mcm kancil sbb pkai oem kayaba cap ayam, xpkai gab absorber(wow, gab, honda used gab kot, he..he..just joking), i think,they accept it all as feedback for improvements.

Interior is serviceable, definitely looks more expensive than RM72k. My main peeve is still with the center console and the HU. Sigh, this is where it becomes evident that Proton can give you a great overall package, but always overlooked the details.

i tough the audio system speaker are blaupunk! saw some picture before

dafuq!!
hahaha. kidding.

I remember when I drove my cousin's Mini Cooper last month, the pedal was less responsive too. About 1 second delay, which I hate BADLY!

What does that mean?

I see. The Preve lag isn't because of this right? It's because of the engine/CVT?

the lag can be save by tuning the mapping? got such thing ma?

probably an internal wastegate... but its all shielded. how you manage to see? only the actuator is visible...

Yes, anyone who have driven gti or cooper before would know how it feels. The difference between preves lag and the other 'common turbos' is the power that comes after that. People tend to ignore the lag because of the power that 'pushes you back to your seat'. As for preves, I don't think you'll be getting that from what i read through the reviews here, thus making people feel its sluggish and laggy. The power u get from a stock golf gti is pretty scary as Ull burn ur tires just by flooring it. One of my favorite activities when I'm driving my friends gti

I know what turbo model n brand it was using
