Just sit on a brand new Forte 1.6 SX, aircon cacat, very hot for some reason -.- almost faint.

Leg room, preve win.

Fit and finish, Forte win all the way, no krek krek krek sound.

Road noise preve better although not much, due to CVT jet engine sound.

FC 10.4l/100km, travel road almost same as me, so it's more or less same with us

Very much agree on the legroom especially on the rear seat..Preve definitely win in this area. Very spacious i must say.

Fit & finish..Forte is more refined absolutely.

Road noise however, due to the Forte standard 17" rims with wider & low profile tyres, Preve might has an edge in this area though as u said..not by much. Forte used hard compound tyres with treadwear of 400 as compared to Preve 360 (if i'm not mistaken). Harder tyres usually = more noise. However, for my Forte, i already downgraded the rims to 16" & used a softer tyre compound with treadwear of 320. Now the road noise is reduced significantly..comparable to Preve if not better. For engine noise..it's a clear win..i believe u can guess which car is tongue.gif

For aircond..i did not know why it is hot (on your Forte that u driven). Lemon car i guess..lolz. If the aircond is set to auto mode (for Forte), perhaps the outdoor air intake mode is automatically activated thus introducing fresh (& hot) outdoor air into the cabin..this however, will effect the cooling efficiency. This will happen in auto mode if the set temperature & the ambient temperature is set to close to each other (say set @ 25C & ambient is 27C). Mine, the aircond works perfectly for 2 years+ now & i always leave the blower speed to be controlled automatically by the aircond system..the other functionality, i set it manually.

Again as compared to my Forte, Preve auto aircond is somehow not fully auto per say. I notice that Preve auto aircond only control the blower speed automatically but not the other functionality such as the vents selection (i.e. face, feet, face+feet or front windshield) & the air circulation mode (internal air circulation or outdoor air intake). I've noticed this on my trip to Teluk Intan last weeked (with the Preve), but yet to purposely test it for confirmation regarding this behaviour.

Need to stress about this also, each time the aircond compressor kicks in, all the car's lighting will dim including the headlight..this also happen to my previous Wira & Waja. Forte did not have this dimming characteristics due to its dual-clutch aircond compressor that kicks in very lightly & quietly (no humming compressor sound). During driving, the compressor kicks in without u ever notice it. However, if this dual-clutch aircond compressor kong some day, it will cost Forte owners a nuclear bomb..lolz

forget it, anyone who thinks 1 good thing bout proton is considered fanboi, and anyone who critics a potong is basher.

LYN is not a place to get car review. Just enjoy as a gathering of owners smile.gif

Nothing personal, but merely a clarification.

I do not agree with your above statement.

But it is a place to get review from all Preve owners who is willing to share their experiences with their new car and highlight their car issues and rectification solutions.

It is a place to compare what problems you have, and other's don't - vice versa.

It is a place for you to warn others if you feel something is not right, eg. sluggishness at start.

It is a place for you to share your dramatic experiences so that other's will get a hindsight on what to expect and what the car can and cannot do.

It's a place for you to review the condition of your new car received, to inform others what to look out for to make sure they are getting their car in good condition before signing.

If we have more members who is willing to sacrifice so much time to give a lengthy and more detailed review, then we get to learn so much more and understanding our car more.

If everyone thinks like you and do not want to spend more than 5 minutes reviewing your car, then you are not sincerely sharing, which means you are not caring.

If you just want to enjoy a Gathering of Owners, then just go TT drink Pepsi. No need to flood the server with this topic. Open another TT thread. Just introduce each other as in Facebook and talk about who wins the EuroCup.

But I do agree that LYN is not a place to get Test Drive Car Review. Neither will I trust the review.

Don't butthurt like me ok? I am just objecting your statement constructively.
Have a pepsi cheers.gif


Yup, my FC sucks and I have notified SC, hope they have the knowledge to rectify it. KiaPreve got the APS fixed by COSE.

I asked the SA about the three buttons on the center console.

Me: Tengah tu hazard, yang kiri kana tu apa?
SA: Itu untuk fog lamp bang
Me: Takkan kiri kana dua butang
SA: Memang untuk kiri kana bang, yang kat kiri bukan fog lamp depan kiri, yang kat kanan bukak fog lamp depan kanan
