maybe he mean direct injection turbo. so far cfe dont use direct injection.

ic...thn they have more improvement to do
but if lite turbo already so thirsty, if they plug in bigger turbo...its gonna be more thristy

yeap..just give them few more years. maybe they can come out with new engine based on petronas engine. never own a cfe proton..but is it thristy? i mean compared to 1.8-2.0 car.

Im using cfe engine, in town use such a pain the a$$ to pay for its fuel. Full tank 370km more or less.

Long distance, i have record 640km travel at average speed of 130km/h. Still have little bit more fuel until the low fuel warning indicator light up

its the way the ecu tune. Proton need to learn from other manufacture how to tune properly. The ecu tune before remap have better fc than the latest

You ride on what model of proton car?
I think it is normal for smaller CC car.

Hp & torque are low then have to pulling up power fuel to burning over.

ouh TDi, my bad. wrongly interpreted. sorry SoZa

except for the turbocharged term..hahaha.

it has almost the same FC as inspira...so go figure

hurmm..to me not bad la.

haha
it should have the power/torque of a 2.0L(which is has)
and the FC of a 1.6L(which it doesn't have)

Exora bold cfe

if just cruising and overtake slowly the fc really good

theres one time i need to catch a ferry at tioman, i vroom vroom all the way from seri kembangan to tanjung gemok jetty, around 310km. Usual drive took me 4hour 30minutes to 5 hour at most, but that time 3hour already reach destination...from full tank at first of the journey, when reach the destination...the fuel indicator blinking already...lol

OMG --> http://paultan.org/2013/04/25/proton-supri...n-honda-accord/

Honda accord much headache for maintenance and now come into proton hand... Lagi headache for after sales service

The main issue is accord chassis too heavy and now putting unknown performance engine and do your think it can be more improve FC and power?

Cannot lah like that. Too high expectation. How can 1.6 + turbo = 1.6NA fc? More reasonable is 1.6T = 1.8NA fc. Unless you 'never on' the turbo then can prob get 1.6NA fc. Look at the Passat, 1.8T = 2.0NA fc. So if preve CFE = 2.0 or above, only then can considered high-ish.

at least roadtax rm90 for 1.6l car.. 1.8 already feel pain.. rm280.haha

Due to road tax is a year a time.
Badly FC is per every fuel.

So you would consider which one?

i choose FC. that's why i downgraded from waja 1.8T to a myvi. haha

I got 3 questions:

1. Why P1 doesn't play around with their displacement of the 1.6 CFE? Just like Ford did with its new 1.0 & 1.5 EcoBoost lineup.
2. Why P1 doesn't use the so-called Preve/Exora modular platform design?
3. Why P1 is yet to announce its so-called "business plan"?

This is the main pointed.

Why proton need play with from each model of car can be choose from low or higher engine grade.

Why they can't do all the same and different with accessories of the low & full specs only.

The main reason from each company have to developing and take how long for improve over bad FC to be better FC and high power engine with lower capacity.

This one may need bump in how much money to be devolping again.
Take more 20 years should be good enough time.

Like Korean car last time very worst and now improve a lot the better FC already.

Proton 1.6 NA already like 2.0 NA FC

1.6T like 2.5 NA

if 2.0T then will be like 3.0NA.


That's why people complain Proton FC.

any fact on these?
