It is not they (the government of thailand) support Toyota, but rather it is Toyota who lobbied for those policies. The government of Thailand is forced to implement those policies in favor of Toyota because they can't afford to lose the billions of dollars of FDI poured in by Toyota alone in their country.

However, fear not. THere are reports saying that next gen proton engine will be a 1.2, 1.5, 1.8, 2.0 and 2.2.

The 1.2 and 1.5 could be turbocharged too, along with the 2.0 and 2.2. rclxms.gif

yeah toyota have been supplying cars in thailand for many many years for sure they dont want other small manufacturer get in business easily...but since proton would rather implement euro technology ,maybe that can be the different and consumer are more likely to choose small engine with turbo boost =~ rather than big engine .

It is not all about losing to Proton, it is all about losing to other manufacturers. That is why when they are on top now, they begin to cement their position by lobbying for policies favouring them. It is all about holding the status quo.

+1

Has anyone ever experienced random driver window not fully closed in this situation:
1. auto window down
2. auto-window up
3. Window stops randomly halfway or almost closed, like if you got a finger stuck in between, the window winds back open a bit.

To close the window, cannot use the auto-up function, but up slowly.

sometimes, the rubber lining in the window causes the anti-trap function to takes place.. that is why the window automatically winds down back.. or, its nt set properly.. i think, if im not mistaken, u have to keep on holding the button for like 5-10 seconds even after the window closes to calibrate back the settings..
