The meter on speedometer is designed to be slightly faster ~10% than the actual speed on purpose, for safety reasons.. changing your rims/tyres may change your tyres' circumferences, hence changing the accuracy as well.

you are saying as though every brand new car got their meter 10% out at 100kmh..

Not sure about Malaysia, need to check with local car expert.. but in the UK & European countries, yes.. the speedometer should read between the actual speed to 110% of actual speed +6.25mph..

http://www.thecarexpert.co.uk/how-accurate...ar-speedometer/

I'm sure most cars in Malaysia follow that as well, especially european cars.. at least speedometer on my malaysian made car is about ~5% faster, and german made car ~10% faster, when checked with GPS
*
"must never show more than 10% of the actual reading" doesnt mean it MUST show 10% off la.. doh.gif

Mm.. I never said must show 10%. I initially said ~10%..
"~" means around or more-or-less..

Back to the point.. most cars speedometer read ~5-10% faster..

Back to the topic.. suprima is a good looking car with many features
*
well i beg to differ.. it has the style of hatchbacks of 1 -2 generations ago.. and interior nothing special.

those market, buyers would then compare it to china made cars to see who makes it cheaper..

The price of the Proton Preve has been slashed to $15,990 driveaway, making it one of the cheapest small cars on the market.

Originally priced at $18,990 driveaway, the $3000 price cut represents a 16 per cent saving on the five-speed manual Preve. The automatic CVT-equipped Preve is now also $3000 cheaper, down from $20,990 to $17,990 driveaway.

Proton Cars Australia claims the new pricing makes the Preve “Australia’s most affordable car”. While the Chinese-built Chery J3 is technically Australia’s cheapest small car at $12,990 driveaway, Proton says the Preve’s standard five-year warranty, capped-price servicing and free roadside assistance offer makes it more affordable to own.

The pricing offer sees the removal of Proton’s free servicing offer for the Preve, however. Under the company’s capped-price servicing offer, it costs $1500 to service a Preve manual for five years or 75,000km and $1600 to service a Preve CVT – effectively cutting the price saving in half.

In our review of the Proton Preve in May, we suggested the car should be priced “at least $4000 cheaper” – an opinion that appears to have resonated within Proton Cars Australia HQ.

Proton says the special pricing offer applies to Preve vehicles ordered and delivered before December 31 or while stock lasts.

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
*
why so low.. hit all the metrics except fuel consumption.. should give 9/10 ma biggrin.gif
