is true bro....no argument , why dun u choose the premium CFE? drive to believe it...

Good morning to all. Congrats on V12. And thanks for sharing more pictures. Very nice!

Btw, I'm now in the Senawang SC for my 1st 1k service, check in 8.45am but mine not yet in the service bay.....bring and compile together about 10 'extra features' need to be solve

It is effortless driving, you will not feel that the car have reached 100km/h after a few seconds. It is that good. Ride and handling is superb. You can tackle corners with confidence because there is no body roll. If you drive on uneven roads, you cannot feel it because the multilink suspension cushions it.

Preve has D and S mode. D mode for conventional driving. S mode for people who thirst for speed.

A continuously variable transmission (CVT) is a transmission that can change steplessly through an infinite number of effective gear ratios between maximum and minimum values. It provides better fuel economy as it allows the engine to run at its most efficient revolutions per minute for a range of vehicle speed.

That is my layman understanding of CVT as taken from wikipedia.

i drive iafm+ cvt. what are the criteria/aspect that u are interested to know

ok...my 6 days old CFE being drived 200k city drive + 700km highway kl <--> jb..usually drive in manual mode...current avg fc is 9.4l/100km

found:
1. whenever my car at N or P but engine still on...y the car like shake a bit shake a bit...feeling like pulse or heartbeat like that...like car's heart is beating...

2. how to differentiate cvt whining sound sound and wind sound...my car when reach 110 or 120km/h got a found appear...but not sure what sound is that...i suspect most probably is wind sound...

3. how to determine wind sound is from which pillar? I think my car RHS wind sound coming from A or B or Both pillar, and LHS like from A pillar..

4. how to determine wind sound is from C pillar?

5. whenever motorbike or vehicle tat produce loud noise pass by...I can hear them clearly...so the sound proof of the car like not very good...

My car also feel a bit like shaking when engine started put on 'N' or 'P'. But i didnt experience rpm up and down, RPM was stable.

Paultan only review preve premium and preve executive m/t.


CFE is quite expensive. And i havent once drive over 160kmh.


Tq for the info. but does preve executive also got this S mode? There's no preve executive in the showroom.


I'd like to know:
- acceleration response, example when masuk roundabout.
- steering response. my old vios steering response in too week.
- real life fc of preve executive in average. is it lower than stated, tolerable or far higher?

Just want to be sure...already fix on preve, but still consider either iafm+ cvt or cfe cvt version. Sometime, the comment i read based on different standard. Since old vios is my current car, i'd like to compare them. Is it far better?(as it seems to me, but not sure).

I am driving CFE CVT Premium version, there is S mode but cannot use because mostly use in traffic congested KL roads.

Fulat, how much u pay including the courier fee?

Vios can't compare with Preve at all. I owned a 2005 Vios before n this is my view:
1. Size totally incomparable
2. Rida and handling totally incomparable
3. Vios FC is better cause it's a much lighter car, where else Preve is a much more stable car in high speed.

My conclusion Preve is a good replacement for your Vios.

Its RM12 per piece including postage. So it's suppsoed to be RM24 isn't it Fulat?

As I talked to the service advisor, the recall campaign batt. terminal for the preve is for the early batch chassis oni, mine chassis 5 series not affected

Answer to your question

1) You would probably notice some sluggishness at first when driving Preve but bear in mind that the engine was tuned for fuel efficiency. If you want to accelerate just floor the pedal. So far i have no problem driving the car in congested road. Just worried that stupid motorcyclist will scratch my beloved Preve.

2) Steering response, for me personally just right because it uses hydraulic rather electronic assisted. Does not feel too light or too heavy just nice.

3) FC, if you are too heavy in flooring the pedal, you can have good FC. The FC will improve after 1st 1000km service.

4) Extra point, cannot compare Vios with Preve because different segment class. Even if you compare Vios with Saga FLX, Saga still wins. However, if you insist Vios build quality and brand is better, that is another matter altogether.

awek Lu ka bro? so some of the previans in 1st TT are also coming in 2nd TT, some I hv recognize but all I dunno the name, who is the photographer with the tripods one?

Tq for the info. Hope it will be the same with preve exec cvt. The guy at proton told me that red color will be discontinued, not much demand for that color. Seems like i just have to go with white one. I planned to test drive preve exec cvt, but they dont have the test drive unit for that variant. Any preve exec cvt in kuching? want to test drive.
