I agree with Danny Tan on this, i love the combination of Engine+Good Turbo, Handling is superb, but Preve could be better if using regular torque converter or dual clutch.

Remove the unnecessary thing to compensate for the expensive gear box, such as :
- the autorain sensor
- the followme home light
- the auto up/down window
- the changing signal (flick the indicator)
- the remote boot
But it’s just my opinion, transmission is a big factor, but for marketing point of view this gadget is a good value added to user average customer


I have booked this car and will continue to support Preve.

after a lot for Preve CFE on the road can cucuk2 other lower torque car
sure it will become 100% for CFE

but from dyno test on the crank Preve have better torque(NM) at low RPM from 2000-4500, but inspira 197NM at 4,250rpm

but thanks to buana345, it's really great contribution.

EURO NCAP tested fontal impact tested only at 64 km/h.
200 km/h? please guys care you beloved family members.

I don’t think ECU remap will solve the sluggishness issue as explain by Kristof the issue lies on the transmission itself, due to clutch fully disengage with flywheel if you press the brake.

Furthermore this is not twin turbo, correct amount exhaust gas required to spin the turbine in order to get minimum amount of PSI required for compression. And the turbine will start spin at 2K RPM.

220Nm is measurement from direct from engine/flywheel

232Nm from dyno is on the crank is a measurement direct from tyre which already undergo gear ratio

i wonder why Exora Bold and FLX does not have this sluggish issue despite both are using same transmission type .

but Correct me if i am wrong:

Probably remap ECU will solve the problem, basically it will increase the ratio of your pedal press in relation to air/fuel mixture, ignition timing & other 4 stroke process, but bear in mind, more fuel/air burn more and more CO2 emission, as a global car(Prove) proton need to comply with European standard for CO2 emission.

And also since CVT is using wet clutch based transmission it just like manual car, you have to release the clutch gradually, even how much you apply the throttle the clutch won’t fully engage with flywheel as a result more energy wasted because of the dragging.

As a result high fuel consumption like Exora Bold and FLX.

For me I prefer to adapt to driving style, try to increase speed gradually (apply throttle gradually) when more power needed.
