Can this really come out in a year?

Developing new 2L engine takes time. The petronas engine was just for the patents. Then there is also the crash test, stress/durability test, NVH test, engine test, styling etc takes time. Also, since when the Perdana was a "core" market car for proton. It ain't going to sell tons like saga/persona. IMHO, better put resources to replace the Satria Neo.

Also, what will happen to the Inspira? Sure, proton still rebadging this. Maybe due to phase out? I think it is better to just leave lancer as it is and concentrate on Saga than neo.

Also, I don't like suprima. Just call it Perdana. No one is going to confuse the car anyway. Suprima sounds like a Pizza Hut pizza -super supreme laugh.gif
