In my opinion, lotus handling in proton is overrated.
Ppl has been talking bout how good proton cars handling is.
The fact is that, I own a 1st gen persona, drove it for 6 years.
lately I started driving vios 2nd gen, drove it at sub urban kampung roads, speed maintain bout 90-100km/h,
I do not feel that much of a difference between the handling of both.
It might be that I do corners at speed of 60-80kmh depends on the angulation of the corners, is it consider slow? Both car handles quite well for me.
In terms of pricing, a vios high spec is almost double the price of a persona,
The vios is a much refined car
-the engine is powerful and reliable
-transmission does not gv much problems too
-the interior is much refined compared to protons
-the steering feel is pretty good
In general, persona isnt that bad either, for almost half of the price of a vios. Its also reliable, it just lack that refinement,
-fuel hungry and less powerful campro but reliable
-4at is also a reliable transmission.
-IAFM will gv prob after driving 100-200k

and you take this 2 to compare...
Moreover, Proton bought Lotus back in 1996, so I am 99% sure Lotus not involved in tuning Gen1 Persona AT ALL.
