But, bear in mind the stigma attached to CHINA MADE PRODUCTS. The competitors will go all out to highlight that. "Ewwwww itu barang cina mali punya, low kualiti"

I think Proton marketing team has to devise good sales strategy to face this stigma.

Volvo is a good association. They must highlight this.

Yes, I already watched the video. My eyes were fixated to the A-pillar all the time. It was very decent. The overall SUV reaction to the crash test has Volvo XC90's composure to it. I'm impressed.

Proton Preve AND Proton Saga

Proton Preve AND Honda Civic

Yes. It was due to front passenger's airbag. I'm not sure whether this is a design fault, or it was intended to be like that.

Semoga pengambilalihan oleh Geely membuka lembaran baru kepada perniagaan automotif Proton

This is a known "risk". I've been thinking about how Proton can improve its cars' market value. Perhaps by launching an aftermarket modification company that can provide a Proton-approved modification for second-hand cars. I don't know. Maybe they can provide options to change the Campro engines to Mitsubishi for a price. Or perhaps they can "refurbish" second-hand cars and give extended warranty for that, just change here and there, the way Apple does for its Macbooks.

I don't mind buying a refurbish Proton cars (HPF-only models).

I always believe that the cost of Proton cars (with HPF) can be lowered further to give access to those who really in need.

Take Iriz for example. Perhaps, by reducing certain components, it can reach a wider audience. Just scrap power windows, radio, remote control locking, projector headlamps, alloy rims and a few other fancy stuffs. BUT! keep all the safety features in it including ESC and HPF steels. The same thing for Persona. Call it "Super Standard" version.

In Indonesia, there is a very cheap version of Toyota Vios where they removed so many things, and only leave the basics. The same thing for entry level Perodua Axia.

Sell Iriz around 30k for manual and 34k for CVT. Sell Persona around 40k for manual and 44k for CVT.

This is how Proton can do Rakyat a justice.

That not the preve that collide with saga right?

Great choice!

Saga hit Preve's left side. Before it rammed into a trailer.

I believe it was due to energy absorption by the car's body. Same thing happened in Iriz below.
