Honda will use Proton to extend shelf life of it's outdated model. Proton has already tried this with Citroen,Mitsubishi,Renault & now Honda. When will they learn?

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"?

Proton came into being thinking the rakyat will be to forced to buy it. All other cars will be heavily taxed,thus making Proton attractive to majority. It worked in the beginning.

Everything has changed since then and Proton is unable to deal with reality,still wants the tongkat. Slowly tongkat also disappearing. So now they want to leapfrog by teaming up. All the time looking to take shortcuts. I seriously doubt this new Honda tie up will work. It's going to be another failed model which will take a slow death.

IMO the best deal was with VW,there could have been a future. But that meant a complete revamp. Proton crony will die. As long as Proton is 'feed the crony' project,I see no hope even if they tieup with space shuttle!
