Perodua SUV will take away focus from X70

But then X50 arrives and takes the light away from Perodua tongue.gif

Next time, they should really highlight the fact that the X50 gets better FC than the Rush/P2 SUV to really divert buyer's attention. 1.5 summore.

For reference:

Rush/P2: 6.5l/100km
X50: 6.1l/100km
*
pls take note x50 is not direct competitor to rush/p2. x50 will be 5seater crossover type to compete hrv etc.

logo will not give such huge impact on a brand compared to name...
maybe u see logo is different but name still proton then i also will give the same impression...

but i agree that x70 is more luxury than CRV liao...
*
ya.. inside feels more luxurious than CRV seriously. the nappa leather and the brush aluminium touch. Heck the whole console and dash area, especially gear knob is much better.

Yeah. I think 19" rims are overkill, unless you're comfortable with paying 1k per tyre. Nappa Leather is really nice, but you have to really take care of it, apply conditioning etc,

As for the speaker system, I guess you could add in your own, I personally prefer to have clear and loud front component speakers \ tweeter. I don't need a subwoofer for now, even though I listen 80% bass heavy songs on a daily basis. I did test out the Executive speakers just now, its good enough I guess, didn't really had too much time as the rep was beside me sad.gif

Anyone owners of Executive mind giving out your opinions on the sound ?
*
for this kind central computer car, it is better don mess with their electronics. installing speaker is not as simple.. okay it is simple to take out old speaker and installed new speaker but when u install third party speaker, ur HU definitely not enuf power to power those speaker and u need amp.. then how u hook the amp? unless the HU got amp like normal HU which most of the car doesnt, u get some trouble. another way is to use digital processor but it will add extra cost.

True. But i think for today's standard most HU should be good enough powering a low end component system such as JBL Club 6500C. I personally like the tweeters of it. But forking out extra 14k for Kenwood and nappa leather, not to mention getting a disadvantage of 19" rims is questionable.

Tomorrow gonna head out the proton open house to test drive lol. Hopefully i'll have more time to try out the executive speakers.
Once you change the HU and component speakers, you day day also smile. smile.gif
*
almera doesnt have computer to control the car, the HU doesnt do that. but ur x70 HU is doing that.. imagine u change ur HU, i think ur car maybe wont start lol.

Normally front section  is being designed to absorb impact during collision. Its tend to crumple without affecting the A  or B pillars very much. For your case, axia tu tin milo.

not only axia, whole perodua range is tin milo lol. Alza kena smash by lori at behind become smart fortwo.

Since x70 1.8T are copy from VW EA888, thus it already sort out all the potential problems related to that engine models?iinm even VW had 3 phases of that engine development to rectify all the problem etc.

Btw my sister in law are working with Proton, so they have one units to test all out from Shah alam - tanjung malim back n forth on weekdays. She too mentioned the car FC are towards the high side from the proton staff.

Hopefully the newest 1.5T will improve on that area.

Busy working abroad atm

the car is heavy thus the high FC.

Seriously, 6 speed automatic vs 7 speed dct... you late buyers prefer 6 speed auto?  What are the advantages?

DCT history alot problem before, ford fiesta DCT also got problem, then infamous DSG. normal 6speed auto no headache, altho can be less fuel efficient.
