Preve with VTEC preeennngggggggggg~

Insipira is nothing more than one off deal. There is basically not much benefit from the rebadge in terms of technology transfer. Mitsubishi won't allow altering anything including engine and transmission. Only suspension.

And the engine and transmssion can only be use in Inspira, not other model. It is more like mitsibushi want to clear lancer stock.

Johnkor agree or not?

He likes this?

Finally..now I can buy my dream car..

Proton satria neo 2.0 vtec R3 tuned by lotus

still have to rely on someone, ptui

okie, time to stick honda badge on mai persona.

proton gave a bloody good explanation (bluff) to cover that controversy about 'rebadging', saying that the deal was actually about proton and mitsu developing the lancer together like how mazda and ford shares platforms. what a bluff...

first lancer owner butt hurt, now honda owners???? huahahahaha.....luckily I drive Protong....

No more Mitsubishi?

so future proton will be using V-tec turbo?

good move for honda also, their current design all like sampah, can finally get good designs from proton. win win

integra type r k30a with cvt only,

no manual coz malingsia

So I wonder with the collobaration would it be another rebadging exercise?

I think the bigger problem is what to do with Lotus.

alway go for the REAL Honda, not the copy version.

Lotus? later they put [WTS] Lotus here

ok
done deal
proton preve is the 2014 honda city

i think PROTON-HONDA partnership is related to this news

this petronas engine, the chief engineer is from Honda F1 project, Osamu Gotu who build champion car for F1 legend Ayrton Senna,
PROTON said want to revive this F1 engine project.. maybe that's this is why Proton-Honda partnership will make its official announcement in Japan today

PROTON guna enjin PETRONAS

Dipasang pada model baru, gantian bermula tahun depan

Proton Holdings Bhd akan menggunakan enjin E01 yang dimajukan PETRONAS untuk model baru serta model gantian keluarannya bermula tahun depan.

Sumber industri berkata, anak syarikat milik penuh DRB-Hicom Bhd itu kini sedang berunding dengan PETRONAS bagi pembelian enjin berkenaan berserta dengan hak inteleknya.
Katanya, sebagai permulaan, Proton Holdings bercadang menggunakan enjin PETRONAS E01 yang memiliki teknologi dan kemampuan setara dengan enjin kereta terbaik dunia lain itu pada model Preve hatchback, Exora Facelift, model gantian Perdana serta model baru yang bakal diperkenalkan secara berperingkat.

quite a big news for mitsu

I dont see they are going to rebadge atfirst place, maybe some model such as perdana/accord

I would like to see they share engine instead, but Honda need something for return right? Ride and Handling from Lotus? Or more sense that honda gonna to use some part of proton plant for asean market..

but how about thailand?
