Done Service 1K
Engine is much smooth. Since labour and engine oil are free. Upgraded to fully synthetic engine oil for RM85.

Pump RON97 and felt the engine power kick in.
Blast at 183kmj at Bukit Jalil to Putrajaya highway.Before, do survey no police from Bukit Jallil to putrajaya then Uturn and blast the car.

My experience.
1. 0 to 40. Steering feel light
2. 55 to 90. the steering different from light
3. 110kmj to 183kmj bit heavy. Believe the car setting. can anyone comfirm this

If you blast from 110 to 160. Engine felt kick in slow.
But when you stomp aggressive from 50 to 183kmj it does move on. I dont dare to exceed 183kmj but i'm sure Persona can reach more. (not racer or wanabe)

Noise engine
1.  below 90kmj quite.
2. about 110kmj (rpm about 2800rpm at 110kmj) engine can hear roar a bit.
3. about 183kmj about 5K rpm. Unfortunate Leg shaken. but cornering at 160kmj is stable.

I know the car can push more. Migrated from MyVi 1.3 (A) 2014. Cornering are stable at 160kmj. It does not wobbling side to side due to car heavy.
Pick up.. traction control does help. rpm gone up to down but tyre grip to move on.
Engine roar loud when you reach 4.5K rpm. So dont expect much there.

To end this. for driving below 110kmj rpm reach almost 3K rpm. Probably proton should rexduce it to 2.7 or 2.6K rpm. CVT ratio needed to change.
Stability. I have no issue. It beat Myvi clear cut.
Brake. it grip. But when the ABS kick in... you can hear the brake hammering. Not sure other car do the same.
Log record - Proton do download the car performance record. I guess i'm the guinea pig for their next action plan.
Body and engine rattling. I dont hear any. But cant expect much at 1K km car.
I'm not going to blast 180kmj anymore. Leg shaken, eyes open widely. Early 4 series age. youngster will able to beat that records anytime.

Enclosed the persona dashboard fuel economy record.

Very sincere and honest review by you. Thanks atone
As for the steering tension , because its electrical P.S maybe it could tightened the steering wheel As speed increases

Hello guys... I've just received my car yesterday.. standard variant with manual tranny... so far everything is great... the gear shifting is a breeze.. tho somehow there is kinda shy shy hesitant at some point with the engine "prolly because the car is eco minded?" fuel consumption is great....

pros
1. silent engine
2 punchy tranny
3 fit n finish improved much more better than iriz
4 good absorber... felt soft n good handling too
5 body roll is there but minimal

cons
1 the rat is still there... can be solved..positive..hehe
2 seat cantbbe folded down...whyyyyyy
3 standard tire is too slim... not good for high speed drive..good for fuel

all in all? i love..yeah bits n bats there... but I'm satisfied
