I am totally fine with Proton strengthening their cars, in fact it is a extra selling point to convince potential buyers.
But, do you mean that showing these Proton photos implies other car manufacturers do not use hot pressing steel in building their current models?
Be careful this is a deductive fallacy trap you might fall into. If you really want to prove, you should get the actual steel types being used by major car manufacturers and compare them with Proton.
That is an interesting question. Well, after doing some research on car safety in Malaysia. There are really not many car manufacturers that use this hot steel in their cars. Even when they do use it, it's only limited to high-end, more expensive models.But, do you mean that showing these Proton photos implies other car manufacturers do not use hot pressing steel in building their current models?

Take Honda for example. A friend of mine who works in the industry told me that currently, the only Honda cars sold in Malaysia which have HPF are the LATEST gen Civic, Accord and CR-V. All Honda models prior to this or currently sold other than these models have none of these steels.
Mine you, there's only one factory in Malaysia that produced this steel and it owns by Proton. All HPF steels used by the carmaker in Malaysia are sourced from them.

Some people laugh and belittle Proton for showing car's body cutout. But here the USA, this is exactly what Honda does.
