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

R u sure vios handling better? U must be joking. Vios is one of the worse car I drove in terms of handling. Fast speed unstable. Corner unstable

Change new persona the handling improved by miles and more powerful.

But gearbox vios feels better. That's all

Many experienced car reviewer (I'm sure not all are paid reviews right...) have driven recent proton made cars and have commended on its ride and handling.

What any credibility have you,  1 individual out of many to say that protons lotus ride and handling is a gimmick?

It's not shown now yes the lotus handling badge and all, but I'm sure there is some significant remnants of it. Evidence through their R3 team and rally.

Just watch this uncle push the lastest saga to its limits up genting.
