Dude, we don't know what sort of abuses that particular car has gone through .... for all we know, it could be some competitor sales guy deliberately spoil it and stage it to make Proton look bad ... as I said, ONE blardy picture and everyone says ALL Preves have problems. Sigh

Test drove just now, not only Preve but Inspira 1.8 as well.

Exterior - Overall the car looks good but it not that you will turn and give a second look.
Interior - Quite spacious but Inspira wins in this area. Almost similar like City but Preve has a better legroom.

Driver's Sitting Position - Not as comfortable as Inspira or City.
Your feeling while in the driver's position - it is just another Proton, unlike Inspira or City which gives you a premium feel.

Dashboard - Quite OK but could have been better.

HU - OK but the buttons around it looks flimsy and unresponsive when pressed.

Steering - Wish it could be a little bit more "chunkier"

Starting the Engine (sound): Good but Inspira better and my City is the worst in this area.

Moving - The steering is heavy and need a little bit of force to turn but the same cannot be said for Inspira which
            is much easier to turn around although both are run by hydraulic. For City you just need a couple of fingers.
            Noticed that there is 0.5-1 second lag to move the car from standstill position. I hate this and just imagine
            when you have this lag and trying to cross a busy junction.
            But once the car moves it is truly a real pleasure to drive. I am already at 120++ and did not notice about it
            until I see the speedometer.It was smooth and silent. Acceleration is impressive but just that the lag that I
            don't like.  While accelerating you can hear Inspira growls and the City screams but Preve is soothing yet
            fastest!Taking fast corners can be done with an ease and confident.
Overall Rating : 6.5/10

better dont..keep the tradition alive

Just to add my 2 cents:

we found the front seats of the preve to be large, soft, supportive, and very very comfy. this after having just come from a premium 2L inspira. and bro, the preve is bigger in every dimension (except about 30mm in length) and by all accounts it is unlikely for the inspira's interior volume to be higher, and certainly, it wouldnt be 'almost similar like city' because this car is larger than the civic!

Kia Forte would have been a good choice, but then.........it is due for replacement.

Toyota Vios and Honda City are simply too expensive.

I will wait for reviews from LYN owners before deciding whether to get it or not, as I only plan to get one by the end of the year.

  don't know got ppl post this or not...

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 of torque 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 

interesting picture there with the broken button..do someone know wheter the wires behind the dashboard are covered with sponge or whatever material to avoid rattling sound?..

numbers mean nothing for interior. look at the latio, so so dimensions but interior can make ur jaw drop.

it is the packaging. the inspira feels more spacious as the seats are more slanted than the preve. but the drawback is the inspira has a smaller boot.

kampung, u should use public transport instead of having a car, minimize the traffic 
joking 

Even if I have car, it still take public transport.

Reason for me to get a car is just to satisfy someone
