Just visited the website that appears in this forum that being posted by prancingScuderia said. Is it true the photo had been leak from the P1 plant?

Not many parts from the interior had been shot. The steering wheel and a few shot of the panel meter and dashboard.

Anyway, maybe Paul Tan & si-fu can comment on this picture…

No car is better than any saloon, anytime…
All Asian cars suck big time.
Japanese cars will just crumple upon collision.
Korean cars are super-underpowered.
Chinese cars are only for the museum.
Malaysian cars are all copycats.
Indian cars are super rigidly manual.
As a whole, if you have the extra money, buy a European or American car…
…but don’t be too happy!
Swedish cars are too squarish.
French cars tend to have lots of hidden defects.
Italian cars have tendency of brakes failure.
Czech cars are too monotonous.
British cars are too old-fashioned.
German cars are too expensive and too difficult to repair.
American cars drink petrol like water.
So, as a whole, what are we to comment?
All cars are the same. (But personally, I like Honda Civic, Proton Savvy, Perodua Kelisa, BMW 316i and Ferrari F-355).

Ladies & Gentlemen…..drum roll PLS…..Here I would like to present to all the reader here, the ORIGIN of Proton MPV….Well if you all have not already know:
http://www.chinacarforums.com/forum/showthread.php?t=1723&page=2

Changan MPV : CV 11.
I happened to stumble upon it while checking the background of the newly launched Chana EVA CV6 (yesterday) Yes, judge for yourself & I think the side profile of the Changan CV11 give u very good hint. In my opinion, the CV11 look quite good. Unfortunately, I feel a bit disappointed after I take a look at the Proton MPV. Not as refined. Too many design element from Savvy. Good lick Proton^^ Are Berjaya going to assemble CV11 in Malaysia?????????

Looks like a Mitsubishi Chariot or Space Wagon

Fear not, it will be the other way around, since Mitsubishi is looking at rebadging this MPV as theirs for Japanese and other market that has no Proton presence and a team of Proton official is rumoured to be in Japan for patenting purposes…

before without knowing the specs, details and design, ppl already started to praise proton with high hope for its new mpv. the only reason that this tank will appease to many malaysian its because of its CHEAP price tag. with the lousy equipments they offer, its a huge ripoff as they always taken us for granted. what can we do?

again government will take this opportunity to rob citizens and force them to pay even more for soon to be increased price tag foreign mpv.

Its common sense that disc brake is way better than drum coz otherwise they wouldnt use it on d front wheels instead of d rear rite. What would happen if its d other way round? WAR OF THE DRIFT…

As expected. My comment got u guy’s attention.

The fact is, modern drums provide adequate stopping power to normal, family oriented roadcars.

Economy – Drums requires less maintenance than disk equivalent. Drums never warp due to normal usage.

Safety – Drums have a wider but limited operating temperature while disk most effective at higher temp. Which means drums has a better ‘cold start’ than disk. For those using 4 wheel disk setup, have u ever encounter ‘morning fade’ brake symptom? Disk also prone to loose grip during heavy downpour. Racecars never had this problem coz they maintain their disk temperature very well.

Reliability – beside never warp on normal usage, drums also not exposed to the environment and seldom oxidizes compared o disk which easily oxidize and could dirt the rims. Also, vehicle weight shift from 60 to 90% to the front on heavy braking. Floating rear is not good for disk and it can easily locks the wheels.

However, disk will always win, not only maximum grip wise, but also aesthetic wise. So Proton, make sure u have all-disk setup in your mpv lineup.
