proton dah habis nama melayu ke sampai pakai nama2 luar??

persona = personality
preve = predict
suprima = supreme

It'll look modern in the late 90s.

really, the rear has a hint of mazda 323 hatchback.

I'm thinking they chose the name Suprima as a double entendre.

Like you said Preve = predict which derive from Spanish.

Suprima = supreme, make sense, but it means "remove" in Spanish.

I was wondering if that serves as a middle finger to Datuk Syed Zainal Abidin & they can't abruptly cancel the development halfway for the hatchback version like they cancelled all Lotus future projects.

Maybe I'm thinking too much.

I very much prefer the Preve rear. It looks modern. Coupe like almost. The Preve Sportback rear doesn't match the rest of the design. It is too rounded.

gud car from proton except for the suprima s name...

Prevé means "To prove" (as in, to prove that Proton can). This is Proton's definition for this name.

I thought they have dropped the Lotus R&H badge (renamed to Proton R&H). Why are they reverting back to the Lotus brand?

Well it's double entendre then.

DRB sudah inject some money to the ailing Lotus recently to revive their buss. I am guessing DRB still wants to milk the Lotus branding.

yeah, i check also suprima means delete in spanish... but who will gives the car name remove/delete??

'Remove'-ing negative perception, perhaps?

google search image for suprima

still suck in interior design and very chei gei quality

have you sat in one?

Hp & Nm how much?

Looks better than Preve IMO. But super stupid name

Bigger ICE screen is much appreciated. Exterior still sucks but at least it's an improvement over Preve.

The rear seems like they were lazy to get alignments and cabling done properly so they decided not to extend the tail lights to the boot lid.

I wonder how much...

its not lazy la... its because they want to keep the price low.

No CFE Manual

wow.. almost 80k
