The rear foglight is there. I even made sure that there's a cable connected to it. laugh.gif

The salesman thought its just a reflector.

"Boot space is down from the Preve’s class-leading 508 litre to just 309 by ISO/VDA measurement, but you do gain a much larger/taller cargo area with the seats folded flat. One issue though; there’s no external boot release. You either have to hold down the unlock button on the keyfob (no dedicated boot release button here) or open the driver door and pull the switch hidden in the door pocket. Seriously, Proton?"

Brighter DRL means more fuel consumption. Every bit counts, and when running DRL for 4-5 hours a day every day, the emissions difference is apparent. In some countries, a DRL cannot exceed 200 candela when looked straight on.

just test drove Suprima S yesterday at langkawi branch Proton.

The road was wet with drizzling rain. Auto wiper works nicely. Turbo kick in at low RPM but the CVT gearbox rubber band effect just so large, can't even feel the "lekat seat" when throttle peddle been floored.

The ride and harshness was good. Both springs and shock absorber well- tuned to suit our roads condition(especially at langkawi). <Thumbs up  >

Other than the CVT gearbox at the downside. The stock equipped 17 incher tyres from Indon were s*cks big time. Even in rolling start at 20km/h, torque steer still available in straight.

hope this help for the "S" potential buyer wink.gif

My other Indo tires are fine whistling.gif

It is always good for a company to continue to produce higher end product and selling at high price. By continue to rebadge and rebadge will not make the country progress.

I hate the NAP and cronyism in bolehland, but in this case, P1 produce a higher end product should be heading to the right direction. Hope not only P1, other malaysian companies that produce other products will continue to improve their products and technology.

if sure ur are hard-corner kakis, then the achilles tyre will not suite you i guess.
better looking for softer compound..if soft-conering i think std tyre is sufficient
