why called it persona, should it being call sedan gen2, while previous called hatchback gen2...
coz all the same, they know they make mistake in gen2 interior by placing the power window switch at middle, n redesign the door trimming... still it's too noticeable a copy paste add from previous gen2, why called it persona... haiz... still the best proton car is old saga knight...
Actually the Persona name existed in Proton more than 10 years already. The Proton Wira here is known as Proton Persona in the UK and some overseas market. Even now in the UK, the Persona is called Proton Gen2 Persona.coz all the same, they know they make mistake in gen2 interior by placing the power window switch at middle, n redesign the door trimming... still it's too noticeable a copy paste add from previous gen2, why called it persona... haiz... still the best proton car is old saga knight...
Selling the same type of car with different wheelbase with different model names isn't the first time for Proton. Take the Wira/Putra/Satria for example. The Putra is basically coupe version of Wira and the Satria is obviously a 3 door version of Wira.
As for the door trimmings and consoles, Proton is just addressing to customers' complains. If that thing is already bad, why still wanna make it into a new car? Doesn't make any sense. 3 years is more than enough to receive feedback from customers. 3 years is more than enough to address to the complains by customers.

i think the intention was to provide a sedan model of gen2.
people has this perception that hatchback (gen2) is small and sedan is big.
i can say that gen2 (hatchback) boot volume is almost as wira sedan.
Its not intention. It's part of the plan to completely replace the Wira lineup. Wira is available in two types, remember? people has this perception that hatchback (gen2) is small and sedan is big.

Gen2 replaces the Wira Aeroback and the Persona replace the Wira Sedan.

When Proton has finally managed to introduce a near perfect car to fellow Malaysians somehow you all will just find non logical ways to bash the car. So cute lah you all.
