i am not basher nor supporter, i've been working in 1 of the reputable local assembly plant for Japanese vehicle before.

judging from the photo, i may conclude

1. yes it is spot weld, nothing wrong with that.
2. the quality of spot weld is not acceptable by JIS body shop standard (pre assemble the metal part before send for paintworks)
3. 1 of the photo clearly shown misalignment of the 2 panels, should the panels involve mechanical movement, ie window glass railings, this may distort the movement thus case premature power-window issues.
4. the poor welding finishing may cause water ingression and develop rust in future (as you can see on top right photo, there might already be some rust mark there)

Just my 2 cents. Hope that proton can improve in this

lets hope this only happen in display unit
the real production unit should have better ones

as u know...malaysian is all abt looks
it has to be done nicely (view frm malaysian)
but i do agree...it can be done nicer....maybe skim it lil bit to make it smoother

tried to inspect my exora bold and also gen2 cps... got no spot welding or 2-part door... all doors are one-piece...

old tech vs new tech bro
its always like that...and if ppl say why so late...reason very simple..cost
just as same as "crumple zone"
old car dn't have...so when crash..no kemek
new car have...so when crash...the engine compartment crush and absorb the force..it looks uglier after crash but it saves lives
example vios no crumple zone...crash and only dent...ppl say wah..see the car so strong
proton include crumple zone...crash and the whole front is finish....thn ppl come and say "wah, proton so low quality, the whole front is gone"

Vios no crumple zone.... Sound right.. Legit...   nod.gif  nod.gif  nod.gif

So what else the vios don't have?  blush.gif

notice the "example"...haha
next time should put capital letters
what i meant by the example was...same technology, different car = TOTALLY different perception

Toyota develop the GOA 15-16 years back n the rest of the auto industry follow.. 

Ppl r bashing them those day why make the front n back so soft....  

Even the kelisa have some features like engine will drop down when front crash... 
N now pro tong boy saying they have this " new tech" ...  Which the Toyota don't have... 

Sound like apple invented video call .... Ridiculous ....

and where did u see they stated that "new tech"?
did u see it in proton web?...did u see it in their brochure?...or did u hear it when DSZ launch the car?
they never mention it
so where did u see/hear they "advertise"/say specifically they use "spot weld"?

as far as i recall, i only remember them(proton) advertise abt using HTS with hot press on the body and their own design multilink only
never recall them saying they're using the "brand new" spot weld be4
or i was mistaken?...hmmmmm
