short conclusion :

acceleration is so so but its the driving that compensate for it..
indeed drive it to believe it

nope...
the acceleration is so so.... the 205 NM dont make itself felt...
frankly if u ask me.... i feel the acceleration of a FD2 can match this car


the interior wise, feels solidly put together but the overall packaging could be better <-- bashers will take this as a poorly build interior as they will not understand what is overall packaging.. poor them

(as much as i think the interior can be better, this is a right step as compared to the interior of previous proton's)

as a typical proton, its the driving dynamics of this car even with traction control off (in the wet), (sorry to those on LDP earlier for terrorizing u guys), that really shines... brakes are solid, steering feel is excellent, lane change stability is there, the chassis is well composed no matter how i try to shake it off balance (hand brake corner in taman megah)..

very big thanks to the folks in taman sea showroom for giving me this extended test drive with my friend...
and we are sorry for burning the brakes... the brakes faded when we returned the car... (yes u can smell them, brake smell i meant)


cant wait to see what the R3 boys can do to its already well sorted chassis...


P/S:
no, i am not paid.... and if u would ask me, i would think they can do better with the interior and oh yeah, bigger brakes please. preve brakes is smaller then those on the exora bold

i really do not want to comment on the output figures actually because sometimes, figures on paper cannot be translated into real world performance...
its my personal opinion/feel anyway...

the brake size diff is obvious actually.. if u have an exora bold side by side with the preve, u can see it straight
size diff aside, the brakes on the preve is more than enough to stop the car, really....

not sure if you guys can see this video

i already gave my 30mins test drive report at midnight la......

how to type properly when u are already so sleepy





but really la... interior can be packaged better,
acceleration is nothing to shout about but the driving feel is the one that put a smile on your face

really drive it to believe it


ok la... i come out with slightly longer version later la
