basically from previous official statement,   it says front wheel flew up and landed down..  but i guess rear wheel didn;t follow the same path/trajectory of the front wheel..

from the kerb damage to where it stopped via emergency brake, could be 10-15meters.. 3-4 car lengths.. based on kerb weight can estimate how fast the car was going.. brows.gif

Don’t you think that if occurrence probability this lower arm broken issue is high proton would already halt all the test drive throughout Malaysia drive by today? If the not, the same problem happen today and experience by customer itself instead of SA Proton already doom, they are not that stupid to put their neck to be slaughter by media and rival unless they really sure that this is not a design issue and it would not happen again with simple trigger condition.

Or possibly proton engineer didn’t sleep overnight last night try to solve this issue, produce a new lower arm and send throughout Malaysia and install to the test drive car and make like nothing happen today? But this does not make sense, any car production process will undergo strict test, lower arm issue should be detected earlier, not during the 4th day of the test.

If you have friend as SA please ask them either Proton ever change the lower arm to the new one?

but without knowing how high the front got lift off, is sort of impossible to really determined the accurate speed.

Imagine your car front lift off with rear still on the ground, panic, pull hand brake. Awkward stop, awesome "landing". Like a jack hammer with front as a head, and rear tire as pivot.

Just back from second test drive session. Just to confirm the first round result.

This is the pecking order:

NVH = Inspira 2.0 > Elantra 1.8 > Preve 1.6
Performance = Inspira 2.0 >>> Preve 1.6 ≈ Elantra 1.8
Response = Inspira 2.0 > Elantra 1.8 > Preve 1.6
Handling = Inspira 2.0 >> Preve 1.6 ≈ Elantra 1.8

Overall = Inspira >> all

I'm not trolling. This is my stand. Tq.

no need to be accurate, just need to be lower than a car with 4 wheels on the ground doing braking,.
usually car got 70+% braking force in front.. so if one wheel off, means brakes severly reduced.. hence braking distance should be greater.

anyway math show 50kmh is around 12.3meter.. biggrin.gif

his conclusion seem to agree with stimix assessment just now.. that 2L cars still ahead of preve wor.. despite 9.6seconds rating and turbo power.
