Everything seems the same, except new gear knob design, and different color trims in steering and dashboard.

Bigger HU screen, seems to be the same as Thai/Indo unit.

This took them more than 1 year to launch it with the new name for it hehe... but hopes the quality go top notch.. shut the bashers' mouth lolx... and hope that after launching those showroom/test drive units all in good condition, no more dashboard button pop in... tired rod patah la... bad weld joints. etc etc

additional equipment 6 airbags,etc.

I've noticed that they've abandoned all pretenses that the CFE engine was under DSZ, ie downsized turbocharging. Now it's just a turbo badge and the real fuel consumption is printed in the brochure (good job for this, too many manufacturers overoptimistic when it comes to fc on brochures) but quoting 0-100 time on the marketing garb? Not smart, unless it's really good. 9.9 secs is nothing to shout about.

maybe because for rims? its 17"
*
err… it is not adding 6 more airbags… it just add 2 more from 4 airbags… and same goes to rim… is from 16" rim to 17' omg… like that 50KG more heavier than sedan.. hmm.gif

not to mention smart entry and push start button at that price(although they use an older version of it, not the latest version like those in camry, teana...etc etc)
*
plus… it got 5 star ancap rating in safety haha…
Just curious… are they over confident or what.. They do print the 5 star ancap rating on the brochure without testing it first in Australia??? Or no need test coz is the same as Preve but shorter tail lolx… Bfore this Preve sedan they don’t dare to do so…

RM80k is OK what. With all the features. You guys ask for it. 6 airbags and yada2 and poof, you got what you want, but in increase of price. Stop complaining.
*
haha so true... ask to add reverse camera, they did, ask them to put bigger rim, they did... ask them to add 2 more airbags.. they did too.. add this and that.. still below RM80k. rclxms.gif

but... ask them improve quality and service.. dunno got or not hmm.gif

Haha they Toyota dun even bother thier fans...
Only proton does...

Last time Preve released many ppl not satisfied
Rim small... why no drl... instead led only... touchscreen also very small... ugly fake wood dashboard. .. ugly chrome designed on steering wheel... why Australia got 6 airbags... here only 4 cheat us... and bla bla bla...

After listen to users suggestions. .. they changed whatever is possible in this SUPRIMA S....

Look at the new vios hahaha... if Suprima S was the new Vios... all will praise it like a god made car for 97k only...

Sigh human never get 100% satisfaction. . Same goes to car nothing is perfect

wow... after i read it... Miss Universal Australia 2013 drives home Preve CFE! The first one in Australia i guess haha.. i thought non cfe version sell there first.

This >> "Proton uses the German technology of “Hot Press Forming” which enhances structure integrity to the strength of its car by 3 times" wow Proton no longer produce milo tin car lar... so now who took milo tin place? laugh.gif

After read the article come to a conclusion...

Proton car...

- nice performance
- great safety package
- great handling
- high tax causing Proton car to be expensive than oversea!
- but... no mention about its quality lolx...

Its not about patriotic or what, new trend of car buyers now tend to choose more value for money cars. Safety features and gadgets really attract new generations car buyers. Honda and toyota (malaysia distributor not global) still live in their own fantasy, same with their fans with old mindsets whistling.gif

this… sounds like buying a iphone 5 vs Galaxy S4
Iphone (toyota) premium product… expensve… RV high
S4 (proton) cheaper.. Has tons of specs - RV low

Still… many ppl prefer Iphone …

Just test driven
Overall I am satisfied with the car.
The sound system is great.
The car can accelerate and decelerate well too.
The interior is not bad.
Leather seats is really comfortable.

The auto light works laugh.gif
Last but not least nvh is still acceptable.

Overall I give it 7/10

I didnt test drive it already feel the car is nice haha... just look see look see... actual car nicer than those photos we seen online. Especially the rear design.

QUOTE(dares @ Aug 17 2013, 05:41 PM)
In this time and age, on the FnF forums, still got people say "drive slowly no need ESC/ABS/airbags". The most EPIC posts I've read is along the line of "too many airbags will kill you".

What hope do we have for the general public who don't frequent car communities/forums?

Proton 6 airbags? B!tch pls, Imma gonna buy a dugong/almari, JDM yo!
*
It is not airbag alone that kills us haha... it is the problem lack of brake system (traction control, esc, abs,) will kill us directly lolx.. and one more thing... we know Malaysian driver la... even u drive slow slow sometime other ppl go and bang u too... they didnt realize how important is the safety. It is like buying an insurance give u a protection... but milo tin car cannot haha... whistling.gif

While you go all "meh" because it was only ANCAP 5-stars

Not to say EuroNCAP ratings is inferior, but ANCAP is just as stringent as EuroNCAP when it comes to passenger safety.
Yep. I hated the rear end when the first spyshots were leaked. Now it kind looks better to me....dunno why  rclxub.gif

Don't you forget VIOS is priced that way becos of the MIGHTY TAX. Take away the tax u think at the price we cannot get all those accessories? Proton is homegrown mate. And just one more thing, how come Proton is selling its cars cheapers overseas????
*
ok.. then compare to oversea... Thailand's vios/city

"City the lowest spec in thai cost oso bout rm58k(2 airbag abs with ebd)…the most spec cost bout rm75k(2 airbag of coz + abs with ebd+ vsa)..thai preve the cheapest bout rm65k( 2 airbag similar spec to vios/city. Abs with ebd).,.the highest rm79k(6 airbag+abs with ebd+tc+esp)..which 1 is overprice vs spec?"

Vios is made of Thai.. Proton is made of bolehland... so import to there sure is pricey... but still can offer better specs than Thai vios ahhaa...
