February 14, 2009 @ 2:07 am
I think PI will name this MPV….. Proton NiAkuYangPunyer…hehehe
February 14, 2009 @ 2:11 am
Btw, considering neo cps price 60k, waja cps 65k, so this MPV shall be priced in a range of 64-72k.
February 13, 2009 @ 7:32 pm
Even BMW couldn't use the Traveler name for its Mini Clubman, hehe.
February 13, 2009 @ 10:36 pm
ermm dis mpv using 1.6 campro cps engine..and price below 80k maybe 75.800 for hline..hline version add on spoiler and lotsa new gadget like bmw using rite now..sumting like auto detect wiper,illuminated meter,key less entry,lotsa new gadget u will find in dis new mpv…5 colour option..solid white,tranquility black,genetic silver and other 2 new colours sky blue and copper brown…
-i loved to named it -[grandPRESTIGEO]-..ehehe..since it looks so prestigious..
February 14, 2009 @ 12:22 am
Based on the way they name their latest cars, I think they wont name it in Malay word.
If the price is really 60k-70k+ it will face direct competition with Avanza and G.Livina.
February 14, 2009 @ 1:24 am
I hope one of the name I nominated will be selected :} ahak!

the soft launch for the MPV will be on 22 Feb. The price is RM70k and RM75 k for two different model lines.
February 14, 2009 @ 4:55 am
THE NAME WOULD BE ' PROTON CACAT FOREVER''
February 14, 2009 @ 5:00 am

February 14, 2009 @ 5:04 am
Only now I realised. Should have submitted Proton 247 (twenty-four-seven). Because it has been 24 year, and this is a 7 seater, or the 7th proton to be made which is not a rebadge.

February 16, 2009 @ 10:30 am
I heard it will be Proton SUASA, and they already choose the winner. I bet the winner already informed since that person should be in the launching ceremony to receive the mock key.
February 16, 2009 @ 10:37 am
Prisma and Estana sounds good… What Estana means anyway?
Hope I win. Submitted 7 entries (actually 8, but the first one didn’t get through, I think.).

February 16, 2009 @ 2:23 pm
hey,
they still doing test run on this MPV.
saw the heavily taped MPV doing its rounds
@ putra heights at abt 11.30 this morning.
February 16, 2009 @ 2:32 pm
now i wonder,
is tomorrow p1 will announce the winner or there will be a ceremony to announce the name and celebrate the winner..
if they will just announce the winner name tomorrow, then all of you still have a chance. haha..
February 16, 2009 @ 3:10 pm
I’ve also submitted a name for this MPV.
Mine is Proton Vistana. A combination of words ‘vista’ and ‘istana’.
Not sure whether these words is in Malay or English.
-vista: distant view from a particular, often high place (this is an MPV,so it shows a far-sighted view in Proton)
-istana: residence of royalties or head of state (very related with comfort, the main feature in an MPV)
Therefore, this name relates much to the MPV by Proton. Hopefully this name will be chosen.
The meanings is gotten from the website of DBP:

February 16, 2009 @ 3:10 pm
Paul, any idea what happened to the Proton APX?
I remembered it was a very interesting design.
I guess it would do well in our market.
February 16, 2009 @ 4:36 pm
heard it is really Proton Gemilang…
Imagine all the europeans tongue tied trying to pronounce the name
GeeMyLang huhuhuhu
BTW the name already used by NAZA for one of its scooter…
Anyway congrats to the winner
February 16, 2009 @ 5:11 pm
haha.. Proton Gemilang?
What’s next?
Proton Cemerlang? Proton Terbilang?
February 16, 2009 @ 5:20 pm
I’m sure they would pick a name that Jeremy Clarkson finds amusing to pronounce and listen. ^^;
Some of my entries is Proton Villa and Proton Pena. Is it any good? O_0
February 16, 2009 @ 5:36 pm
For the winner of the contest, congratulation.
Grand prize, new P1 MPV
1st runner up and 2nd runner, tickets to visit Lotus at Norwich England if I’m not mistaken.
Hope P1 can organise more naming contest… or they can pick from thousands of names that being posted by Malaysian regarding this naming contest.
February 17, 2009 @ 11:30 am
aiyoo really ke the name of the mpv is proton gemilang?
i think the name that i nominated is better..Proton MaxQ.

February 23, 2009 @ 5:17 pm
