hi gigabit,

with due respect, we are talking about buying a car here(not an i-pad), which transports our beloved families crusing in 100km/h, commiting to years of time-line $$ installments etc etc ...IF ITS NOT a HISTORY/PAST OF A BRAND MADE be used as a yardstick!! what does then??? cakap kosong again but in a more fency/stylish way isit?? notworthy.gif
*
if there is an improvement in each product, give credit where it is due...
this preve is one of the better product coming out from proton...
give it credit where it is due...

then u will tell me, so fast there is a panel dropping into a hole....
do u know the actual story behind it or u want to bark?
smile.gif

who say buying a car is not like ipad?
it is the same.
we are buying a product, just that a car cost much more than an ipad.

based on your definition of yardstick, aint ipad 4,5,6,7,8 should just have the same features as the first incarnation?
smile.gif

on yeah, hyundai and kia are shits then, and good now....
where were you during their shitty days?
worshipping them too cuz u have the mentality anything buy made in malaysia?

the sounds not bad... thumbup.gif

you using the pedal shift is it? i see you maintain at low gear...
*
the engine sound is quite refined actually for a proton but it still can be better
(just wonders those bashers knows what is refinement or not? rolleyes.gif)

i drove all the way in manual mode... there is still something that proton can improve on... but in the end it is still heavily limited by the choice of powertrain + drivetrain combo....

the reason why alot of people think it is underpowered or "no power" is because they are not used to CVT smoothness in progressing up the speedometer range... and of course with the "turbo", they expected chair sticking acceleration...

they dont know what is the meaning of accelerating effortlessly/comfortably....
smile.gif

for me, i would prefer to have a proper ratio gearbox (be it auto or manual) instead of this CVT.. but the manufacturer knows better behind this combo

Gigabit,

yes, i sure agree with your statement. this further shows that in order to change, REGAIN trust and for the world to accept A NEW ... the same person, an organisation in this case is to FIRST, ADMIT&REALISED their mistakes/short-comings of the past. The koreans did so then, if you remember.

Now, tell me, have OURS done so??? NO. what they did was, keep naming a new Managing Director(MD), one after another.

Do note: NEW MD = NEW vendors lo = XYZ???? (u name it, folks!!!)

by the way, i am not a korean
*
dews..... DSZ did apologise before (if i remember correctly) for the rubbish put out before his time and he promise to put out better product and he did fulfill his promise with this preve...

QUOTE(WhitE LighteR @ Apr 20 2012, 05:04 PM)
from what i can hear during my test drive is that most sound resonating from the front hoot. i wonder if we do some sound proofing here will it improve or not smile.gif
*
yes... there is some resonating but not as obvious as what u see in the video because taking a video like this will have alot of other noise inside...

sorry forgot to check under the hood for soundproofing material...
doh.gif

laugh.gif

the resonating i suspect could be due to the whirring of the CVT or because the engine is still very new when it was driven this hard... <-- strictly my opinion...

QUOTE(+Newbie+ @ Apr 20 2012, 05:28 PM)
Also, CVT + DBW delay makes the first few seconds of acceleration seem very delayed, therefore feeling unresponsive/no power.
*
actually, technically, it is wrong to assume that...

its the calibration of the ECU that controls how much/how fast the throttle body open according to the throttle pedal position....
in preve case, proton is very conservative with this.... hence the lag/delay in power kicking in <-- which again alot of people dont understand this concept

Is it due to the reduction of the displacement from 1597 to  1561 make the car hard to move from stationary?

QUOTE(+Newbie+ @ Apr 20 2012, 05:39 PM)
That's very true. The car can be tuned to react faster, but was not. Not sure why.

On a side note, I've driven a Mini Cooper as well and noticed a similar lag. At least I think that's what it is. I'm no car expert, but it felt similar, although not as bad as on the Saga.
*
some cars are programmed to have such delay... not sure why but this delay somehow will make u feel that the power delivery is more linear and more comfortable as opposed to touchy response...

so the challenge is to find the correct balance for each individual car and the manufactures has their own guideline on this...

after all there is 7 billion people on this planet and u cannot satisfy everyone

The decisions that Proton have made since he came aboard have been largely sensible. One of the reasons why I like this man.

The sad news is that DSZ might not be at the helm for long, because DRB-Hicom has bought over Proton, Tan Sri Syed might want to replace DSZ with his own trusted personnel. But I digress. I'm sidetracking the thread here. sweat.gif

Let's hear some more reviews!!
*
if DSZ leave proton... seriously everyone can just give up buying proton
smile.gif

the quality level that he has brought up so far will go back to those waja days...
i dont see the new owner is interested in bringing proton forward...

i personally think he is more interested in the high-tech tanjung malim plant (like it or not, this plant is world class but sadly under utilised) where he can change the production line to assemble VW and sell it with super high profit margin... all this without the need to build a new plant...
