what brand of Achilles used on suprima? if ATR sport should be ok i think. but not to the level of 'superb'. ATR sport is damn cheap donut but quite good in dry & wet road. 205/45/16 rm180 only..

man the pricing of this car really break my hope for seeing a better proton........the 80k price tag is going to kill their moderate improvement, why not just revive their name first like korean did before face to face fight with the mass winner zzzz
*
Tak habis habis with the pricing.

Give me another C-segment within that price bracket. Compete with mass winner who? Vios? City? Go sit in one and look at the space and equipment before making judgements like these.

Moderate improvement? 6 airbags, touchscreen HU, ESC, DRL etc. etc....the only other similiarly spec-ed car within that price bracket is the Fiesta and the Rio, and guess what....they are B-SEGMENT!

zzzz indeed.

Proton is still proton, the lacking of trust and reliability, the key word is positive goodwill, it accumulate from uncountable success of user experience.

and your so call airbags, ICE and all sort of gadgets is indeed a moderate improvement. As their main competitor, P2 always said, their reputation of number 1 selling automotive manufacturer is an unintended win, P1 give it away with uncountable mistake; Moreover, their current position are partly rely on strong backup from local enterprises, most of the government link business are forced to use Proton.

Consumer needs always come first, then only talk about wants and so on. Reliability and trustworthy always come first for a car that going to be use daily, it need times to build from uncountable positive user experience.

Anyhow need not to debate too much, i just expressing my opinion for not going to get Suprima. To me, Inspira and Exora is a success, Preve is moderate, and Suprima is failure. I'm having a higher and higher expectation for them since the success of Exora and now i feel sad for them to go downwards again, because i care about it.

K thx byeeee
*
So the Suprima should be sold at RM60k to gain back the market share then?

Like you said, if Inspira and Exora was a success, meaning more Malaysians accept the brand, then why shouldn't Proton try to offer more and at the same time price it higher? Do you expect Proton to sell every car big and small under RM70k forever?

They are selling a C-sedan at RM74k and a fully-kitted C-hatch at RM80k, and you have already positioned their C-segs against other B-segs. I don't know how much goodwill do you expect from Proton.

Perhaps Proton should just go back to full time rebadging other cars and sell them cheap. I don't think any amount of goodwill will please Malaysians.

i beg to differ. safety feature a moderate improvement? having a plus in safety feature just saved my friend's life, like 2 hours ago. if he is in a tin kosong P2, i wouldn't be posting here right now but instead attend to his funeral.

i prefer a car with power window that breaks rather than a car that make your heart breaks in agony.

IIANM, that pertronas engine was before Campro engine. Why Proton did not just use that engine to begin with?

Probably because it was a 2 liter engine, which was not what Proton needed at that time? hmm.gif

In order to dream big, you have to offer something bigger too. Now is the right time for a NA 2.0 engine, or a twincharge one for that matter. 1.6 NA and CFE on almost all of the new models is just plain boring ...  tongue.gif

For a D-segment, maybe. If Proton is not rebadging the Accord for this segment whistling.gif

This is the nett price before adding the standard accesories, registration, miscellaneous fees and insurance.

A lot of dealers like to use this tactic to lure customers to their showrooms.

Consider yourself lucky then unsure.gif

Even the TV ad makes me feel like they are trying to sell the car in 1985.

Proton needs to fire their ad agency.

All things equal, more weight = more stable in a straight line only.

If a car does not handle well, adding weight won't make it handle better.

Case in point, Camry does well when high speed crusing. But chuck it in a corner and see.
