By paultan...and he said the plastics are better than some C-segment Japs in his blog.

I dunno why people complain about the campro engine.gen.2 auto has reasonably good pickup in city driving - auto gear shifting all under 3k. rpm.

in term of interior,this persona is far more better than vios and some other korean cars.what can i say this car is a bargain for one who are looking for a new sedan car,family oriented and better NVH for just 45K-50K range.demm i luv the blueberry color.

everyone know it as gen2 sedan, y proton try to name it persona?

bcoz when gen2 first came into the market....it already gave negative feedback from the customer.so not a good idea to associate with a product that had drawn negative feelings. tongue.gif

yup...still the same engine and company but different attitude from the current MD and during the former CEO,too many mistakes have been done and lead to waste of resources,money and time that lead gen 2 to be problematic at first of its appearance to the consumer.i can't say much just go and test drive the persona.

"Proton has manufacturing processes which are similar to other automakers but compliance has been poor so the quality has not been good," admitted Proton MD, Datuk Syed Zainal Abidin. "We have now pushed harder to instill discipline and greater compliance in all areas and though I have to say we are not 100 percent there yet, it is much better now and you can see it in the Persona."

That's just proton, change a bit here n there, call it a new car.  doh.gif
Proton really phailed for me.


it is actually a new car.yup it share the gen 2 chassis.so what is wrong with that ? i would say this persona is the corrections what gen 2 has committed with strengthened car body than the previous models.i am not a fan boy but because this model is better why not i addressed all the goodness , LOL.

if u drive a saga/an iswara when you're in 2K-3K RPM range you can feel the car is moving.but with campro engine,it feel a bit sluggish and tend to make the car feel heavier to the driver when in low rev.if am not mistaken the TCU will improve a bit the sluggishness of the campro engine (auto only).it is not just campro,even an alfa romeo boxer engine felt sluggish when it is in low rev.

U make me laugh at tat post. 55k?, cant produce quality ? Hey, the japs can make a honda city for tat price . why cant our useless proton.
The honda city and vios are the lowest spec cars and go for something like 12 - 15k usd .

Interior, power and technology is superior . Proton might as well pack up and go to hell.

Proton is useless, their engineers are retards and the government shouldn't be supporting such a useless ass car maker. Id rather the gov invest in Perodua and come out with some quality car that can rival the japs .

Yes i am bashing proton for everything they got. as a useless company.

plus you're a useless forumer too and maybe a retard laugh.gif anyway i have already look around this new Persona.The seats are very comfy for me and the steering is not big as i seen on the ads.This Persona is spacious for this kind price of car and the cheap feeling on the Gen 2 doesn't feel much on this new model.

I don't mind to book one if i have the buying power.
