Now that we've discovered the Preve isn't so impressive owing to the factors below:
1) Unresponsive below 2k RPM
2) Loud engine noise
3) Interior quality

Is it still worth the price of RM73k as compared to Peugeot 207 and Vios J Spec?

Or is it better to squeeze my wallet for every drop of blood to get a proven big CC car - Inspira or Forte?

Or just screw anything above RM70k and get the dreaded MyVi?

mind to elaborate what do u mean by unresponsive? at least the peak torque starts at 2000rpm compared to normal cps at 4500. rclxm9.gif

the cvt 'rubber band' feeling is no doubt. but the power is there..except the feel is no there. hehehehe. even established brand have problem with turbo lag. monstrous evo fq400 have problem with turbo lag. i'm looking fwd to drive a car with wide range of torque peak..sure nicee... rclxm9.gif

On top of the turbocharger, VW adds a supercharger to 'fix' that lower end rpm. I tihnk if preve add something like that need to tambah another $10k and it's probably too high tech an undertaking for proton.

actually it depends on the turbo setup itself. pug 1.6thp dont use supercharger but they use twinscroll turbine..so the turbo kick in at 1.4k too. cars like evo or subaru they prefer to use bigger turbo..more power but higher rpm to achieve peak torque. smile.gif
