offtopic. some people cnfius with e01 petronas engine with the new ne01.
e01 is 2L na engine while ne01 has 2L na, 2L turbo n 2.2L turbo. i think they r in the trans intergration phase coz cp phase already finished.

i believe,many will love these engines, high revving compare to campro, being told 2L na rev at 7000 rpm, both 2L turbo and 2.2L turbo around 6500 rpm for max power.

petronas has a patent vvt component which is quite unique. whether prm get this first or others, still pending,the cost perengine is quite high,but if can make debut in prm,then srm,then erm, i think it can justify the cost. hopefully prtn can utilize this engine 1st b4 the china counterpart does.

if not,it will be wasted then. its euro 5,n capable euro 6 engine.

but rest assure,if suprima get this engine,it wont be sooner,n the price will definitely higher.

heard the hnt guys r jumping all around to test the capability of the engine.

sory for off topic too much.but just sharing some news.

dash board, leather seat, gear lever look so cheap... even my 10 year old waja look so much better... dissapointed...

however, seem like so much space...

I dont think the leather is cheap. It is one of the best. Better than Civic. The gear lever feel better in hand compare to Preve. Dashboard is ok where touch plastic is there, only complaint is the glove box. It does feel cheap. Side door plastic also feel cheap, similar material found in saga/persona.

Anthracite leather is standard OEM leather for BMW. Japanese will prefer nappa leather.

hmm internal sources told me got 2k++ orders for suprima which i think is surprisingly lowncoz its the best bang for buck car for that price.. if memory serves me right ,6k of orders for new vios already secured  .. hmm but bagus jugak, since itll make suprima less noticeable on the road and make us unique hehe..

btw guys, a cat of mine just left his nice 2 inch scratch on the bonnet of the car.. it isnt deep but can u recommend how can i make it disappear? tq

DRB seems to have bad sales forecast and pricing. Yeah suprima s have lot features for its price, but that alone won't make people buy the car. Even the initiated people also think twice before making decisions to spent 80k for Proton, let alone those who have no idea what suprima have to offer, simply say it is bad car because of Proton badge.

They need to re-think their pricing strategy. Preve sales forecast was off target every month. Suprima discount probably imminent for the coming 6 months after release. But yeah, nice to see suprima once in a while.. very rare car indeed. Last 2 week got one park near masjid, everyone is looking and talking.

I have asked about discount in four different showrooms, all same answer: new model no discount.

I think they started the discount already. I saw online ads with 1k discount.

I enquired directly to Kristof of Punch Powertrain about the improvements on the VT3. My questions were forwarded to his colleague Fikeri Yusof. the following is the email exchange
There was a couple of intermediate email exchange but due to irrelevance I will omit them here. The next relevant email is below
So as you guys can see the improvements is not only software, but also the mechanical parts. Kudos to the team for answering my questions so thoroughly when other carmakers will probably shrug me off.

Goes to show Proton is not ready to rest on it's achievement with the CFE+CVT powertrain design.
