To correct your first question....Proton cars does not handle like a Lotus car, which seems to be a major confusion for most people.

Lotus Engineering used to consult for other carmakers on various technical capacity, suspension tuning is just one of them. For those carmakers that make normal econo cars, "Lotus tuned" doesn't necessarily mean tuned for racing, but for the best balance in terms of the manufacturer's intended comfort level and handling characteristics. Lotus Engineering also tuned suspensions for Hyundai, Kia and Jaguar in the past.

Handling of a car involves many factors such as the chassis stiffness, suspension geometry, spring rate, rebound rate, dampening rate etc. etc. etc. All cars are different...... if it were so easy, all carmakers making hatchbacks, for example, will simply copy the suspension on the Renault Megane RS or Ford Focus ST and call it a day.

yeah, campro really minum minyak like 3 litre engine during higher rpm. im guessing that the engine is working very very hard to power the heavy chassis.

that's why not many persona/iriz/saga/exora/preve cruise at high speed, always bawak around 110-130kmh only. meanwhile axia/myvi/city/vios tailgating at 140kmh without worrying much about fc.

Haha, not from stand-still. So far only once I had issue joining traffic [merging lanes] when the pickup felt sluggish. Other than that, I doubt it's got anything to do with the fuel used [95/97]. Thankfully my ride felt decent la on LDP whenever I kickdown to overtake slower cars.

Yea, same thing here. First thing I do when get in is depress that 'A' logo too. Hahaha.

Oh, for me, it was wobbly when I was already about 160-170 trying to overtake a few cars at once cos I wanted to give way to a faster moving Benz behind me on Elite.. plus there was a big lorry on the middle lane then... likely the air pocket then when I drove past.
