The Proton 2020 City Car Design Competition has ended and the winner have been announced.

http://paultan.org/2014/12/09/proton-desig...ners-announced/

Some examples from the winner of the secondary school category.











Here comes the 1st prize winner (rm3k cash + macbook air)



Although the contest listed that innovation and originality are being prioritized, but how realistic these entries looked? Is it even possible for our cars to look like that in 2020?

I am a car enthusiast and loved designing bodykits/ sketching cars when I am free, I entered the contest too with my following entries but I don't even get any consolation prize. Is it being realistic and getting the correct proportion wrong? I don't understand how the people at proton think, how is our car industry going to improve when you like childish drawing than a realistic sketch?







Comments and feedbacks are welcomed, especially honest ones.

Because first thought of your design is - suprima.

Why should they chose your design if they already produced it?

Possibly the judges are kids lel top kek

dude, even if u won something from it, who gives a shite? it's from proton.
it's like TVB actors winning their own TVB award. no real value. syok sendiri saja.

take your designs elsewhere.

But your design looks like suprimak. No originality?

eLuma looks cooooool

Shitz design only Proton will give any award...that first prize really facepalm...the runner ups and consolation actually much better.

No wonder Proton always comes up with design like Preve and Suprima. No taste in cars.

no originality

eluma won, not the one you posted. That got first runner up. Still, I feel you man. Your's could have been in top 5.

There's 2 groups. the Eluma won the university group, those that I posted are from the secondary school group which I am eligible to enter

the Eluma was a really impressive entry by the way, that's how a futuristic concept car should look like.

Mine might not be the most different one but hey.

Lets a take a look at Audi/ BMW/ Mercedes. Each of their models look identical with small similar elements, that's what makes people recognize your brand through the whole lineups.

I admit that mine looks a little similar to the Suprima, but I wanted it to be the bigger brother of Suprima or even the next generation Suprima, why not?





Side by side comparison, you can obviously see the unique bits from my design compared to Suprima.

You can go and take a look at various competitions organized by other car manufacturers, they don't take crazy drawings as winner as they are looking for production ready design or realistic ones which can really be considered to sell to the public.

Oh...didn't realized last entry is TS entry. No wonder didn't win. It's a Suprima rip off. Of course won't win anything!! Very Honest comments!!!

yours was great looking though. no wonder proton is so lacking in design department

can you point out which part of the car is ripoff?

Mind you, I took a Mazda 3 as the base proportion, no way that thing would be similar to a Suprima.

2nd pic reminds me of salamence

btw your design quite good..

I see. Still, the one you posted was 1st runner up and not the winner. Don't despair, keep at it. I can't even draw a straight line with a ruler.

The design should be relevant in 2020 not 2015.

They maybe considering other element such as design element competition not the the beauty drawing competition.

what kind of car do you expect to drive in 2020? with wings?

See. Bukan senang nak design car to please everyone. Even you design you already feel can syok and menang.. but still got people complain you rip off here and there.

topkek.

well i respect honest opinions and I know some are just trolls.

thanks for the encouragement guys.
