Proton Exora chassis structure teaser

This is the latest and probably one of the most final in a series of teaser images released by Proton of the Proton Exora 7-seater MPV. If you visited the Proton Technology Week they held sometime back you would have already seen this in real life, but this version shows some of the different metals used in the structure.

The single-piece front end module is made of plastic (but reinforced by metal in some areas) and the front subframe uses a hydroformed sub-frame technology that contributes to helping the Exora lose a few KGs, which means the CamPro CPS will have less to lug around. Being a single piece, it will be easier for the assembly line workers to install the front end module.

This is how part design can affect quality – other than the actual quality of the component itself, if a component is easier to install there is a higher chance for the assembly line works to always get it right the first time around.

UPDATE: To learn more about the benefits of a hydroformed front subframe, check out this link by Subaru. Thanks to reader Fridz.

    Hydro Forming SubFrame tu sure nanti ada orang kutuk2 cakap kalu guna plastik, sure cepat retak le, patah le, takda kualiti le, bla bla bla. Ye la, sebagai orang biasa, bila sebut plastik je, sure imagine benda tak berkualiti, cepat patah, dll. Sooo proton, persepsi masyarakat haruslah diambil kira sebelum melancarkan sesuatu produk.

    You sad the sales are low, this is because they have no diesel engine, if they had one so the sales would much much better.. i dont know the diesel situation in malaysia but in my land 56% diesel rate!! my car uses diesel 5.2L/100km but if no diesel you need min. 7L/100km, and diesel is cheaper than benzin..

    Mpv is great and great cars here only available with diesel !!! No chance for exora.. Just look to porsche, cayenne now with diesel engine, because to boost the sales everywhere in europe..

    if they go the way that go nowadays, so i see no good for the future of proton, hope they bring more and better engines..

    read somewhere in the Alado Easter MPV owner club forum…the owner still praise the MPV and dont care what others say..eventhought they have to spent more on 'renovating' the interior.

    Dudes, we freaking care what overpriced Euro metal you drive. This is for real people. People who need, not want a family hauler. Europeans don't need this. They don't make many children.

    Euro 4 stars because lack of minimum required airbags(4 or 6 is needed now not really sure)), no ESP and TC…

    otherwise can get 5 already i guess..

    one of the most interesting comments i've seen in a long time. i think everyone is so obsessed with selling in europe, they've forgotten that the whole of europe, and the US, are trying to sell more in asia where the money is today, and where the consumers are as well.

    Yes, the sales in Europe are currently low… very low… that b'coz Proton's cars stuck with quality issues before, the quality was below expectations… It's not guarantee to have a high sales volume just by having an diesel engine for Europe market if the quality still below par… the most concern for European was the quality.. so, the "BAD QUALITY" was the killer for Proton in Europe market…

    If Proton wanna increase sales in Europe, the need to rectify the problem… step-by-step progress.. everything need to rectify from the beginning… so, they will know what the mistakes that make their cars sales are low… If Proton go to diesel engine progress, that kinda making 2 step ahead and they will miss the improvement step.. so, just be patient bro, that why i said, "diesel engine still in talks".. it's not easy mate.. not just "discuss today, tomorrow we will get the engine"… :) they really, really need to find an diesel engine that really suit for Proton cars…

    have you seen the countless number of ads by perodua thanking people for buying the myvi? or the countless number of radio ads that continue to play everyday, every hour for the whole year?

    just curious bro, is that also "tax payer" money since perodua is also a national car?

    Cant wait for the launching date,.. where thousands of people from all walks of life (including those who swear that they will never buy any Proton car again) will throng and pack all the Proton Edar showrooms and banging all the 4 doors (and they never do this to the other car from Honda/Toyota/Nissan etc etc) as hard as they can to 'assure the quality'.

    As usual the skeptics especially those who belong to the Wont-Buy-Proton-Again camp will do some very detailed checks even to the bottom most of the car just to look for any flaw like they never did before to the other cars by the other makers. We will again see many CSIs running up and down the seats banging all the doors knock knock all over the body and scratch on some painted parts just to say, "…See, very low quality car! I told you so..!"

    14th April is coming, and all Proton Salesmen are sweating. Maybe they just need to assign some numbers like what they have at all the Banks counter services, as a kind of crowd control measure , heh..? =)

    there are only 2 scenario in new car model launching. first it will be a hot sale for a short time period, coz by a feedback by the owner of car i.e. boring car, quality issue even the origin source of parts, sales after service, image to public & friend and even after market parts. second scenario it will be a hot sale for some period and the sale sustained for a few years which are due to opposite of the above. don't belive it? i bet it if proton rebadge the mitsubishi lancer GT as a next waja!

    The irony is, every village folks who dont have internet connection has not seen how the MPV looks like.. they will refers to news papers everyday for the new update… that mean, Proton also targeting "kampung" folks also rather then just targeting "bandar" folks only… Marketing strategies… :)

    Perodua did not doing similar excessive pre-launch campaign and still successful because, Proton products is very dissapointing few years ago when their lauch P2 Myvi.. so now, after persona and new saga hit the market.. i can see and heard P2 advertising their cars in the TV's and radio's frequently…

    there are 1.5k++ ppl already booked this EXORA and waiting for the confirm price and confirm interest rate from the bank. i think with this teaser at least they feel a bit relief that this EXORA launch date is getting close already. this ppl are more eagerly / patiently waiting for their EXORA. so, not need to feel bored la bout it… unless u already booked it too…

    IMHO..proton did this to educate the potential buyers slowly.. just think. i bet u already hav sooo many info bout exora. most of us here already learn to accept exora…marketing strategy kot.[/quote]

    from this forum, i learn many useful things regarding proton's achievement in r&d (pls read 460 & Si-Fu's postings).
    that's the benefit of this type of marketing.

    [quote comment="226037"]can proton stop spend excessive budget for his EXORA launching ? It has taken far too long to launch a car like that and buying half page to 1 full page of advertisement almost everyday !!!! The irony is everybody has seen how the car looks like !!! but yet proton pretend that we all have not seen it yet.

    Did perodua myvi did similar excessive pre launch campaign ? and yet there were successfull

    dont forget it is tax payer and shareholder money !!!!

    PROTON CEO please just launch it and cut all the unnecessary spending !!!![/quote]

    I tell you the truth why P2 didn't have pre-launch campaign. If P2 dare to reveal the white body structure like P1, i dare to cut my fingers that no doubt people will questioned the safety of P2 cars. Check the passo or boon structure and compare with Myvi. You will find many of the body panel been stripped of for maximum profit. How many bolt they change for clip? How many spot (welding) point they reduced? The most obvious is bumper beam. P2 change it from a combination of stamping parts to hollow ordinary steel pipe for water supply with CO2 brazing (no spot). Is it consider safety? Take Viva brochure you can find still they say the hollow pipe is safety point? Door panel protection beam been stripped off and say the anti vibration small piece panel as safety bar?

    So what? Proton Management nowadays seems to have effective advertisement as Toyota has. Congrat to them as still it not necessary but many say to be successful must follow those already succeeded.

    When Proton produce sub-standard cars (previously) people bashed.

    When Proton learned from their past mistakes and starting to produce some better quality very decent cars, people also bashed.

    Now, when Proton trying to show to the masses some of their efforts to enhance safety and improve quality , people still bashed and accuse of wasting taxpayers' money.

    Proton will do anything to improve its products and its image but of course people will still continue to bash.

    The other purpose to extend the launching date is to buffer enough units in case there's overwhelming respond and excessive order.

    If not, later you'll be the one who complaint the delivery is too slow..

    damn potong never learn. Deprived rakyat always.

    and not forgeting the tax money wasted…

    it should sound like this…

    damn potong never learn. Deprived rakyat always. and the tax spend on potong are wasted. potong should closed shop so rakyat can buy 'T' a van zar 10K, H 'arus' at 10K like the rakyat US. Potong long time deprived us rakyat from cheap nihon-go car.

    The chassis itself inspired from Toyota wish…but got some modification..

    Don't mind waiting if it is launched 6 months after the 1.6L (N/A), but if it is after 2 years then what's the point, can't wait that long. Also, I am sure there will be more competitors coming out with better product by then.

    Though I can say that Wish & Mazda5 price is about my affordable range..

    But I will still go for Proton if I want to buy MPV…

    Coz I know.. with almost RM70k saving, at least I can use for my kids better education.. Just me :)

    Dare to change…!. proton berani tunjuk apa ada dengan frame platform baru exora nie. I boleh kata, tak banyak pengimport kereta berani tunjuk diaorang punya subframe terutama sekali P2 & T Avanza. Kalau diaorang tunjuk sure pecah punya kualiti problem diaorang dengan reduce kualiti sebanyak 20% hingga 30%. Yang I tau, ford ada pernah tunjuk stuktur body kereta diaorang dulu. Tax payer… please bro, isu lapok. Walaupun proton pernah umum kerugian suku ketiga tapi tak bermakna diaorang tadak duit. Fikir sikit arrr…. newspaper hari2 orang baca dari bandar ke kampung. kengkadang kertas news tu buat bungkus nasik lemak. lepas makan baca apa yang menarik. lagipun iklan kat paper lagi murah & effektif. To gen2lama, thanks to sharing the photo with us proton supporters & basher. at lease we know which one look more nice. Black plastic pillar, i want to share with you all that you all also can D.Y.I. Just go to any car acces, then buy black matt or carbon printed pattern stickers. Normaly they sold it 1×9 feet RM10 to RM15. Just stick it & cut it along the pillar and then ….Wallah…. nice slick sporty look. Try it your self. I done it to my accord & my wife savvy. look's "GARANG". :)

    All car sold will meet the safety requirement in that particular country. Avanza was not designed for developed country such as Japan, europe etc. That why the materiala used are not as good as their global products (wist, estima etc).

    Nevertheless, Avanza 1.5 do meet the safety requirement in its target market. As for the requirement for developed contries..that is another storylah (my take is yes, but most likely "unsoldable")

    Anyway, from what I understand, nss is talking abt how banks make money. When they give a loan to us, they charge interest. The more expensive a car (a Wish perhaps) is, the more the interest (the percentage may be lower, but the amount is still high), thus, banks make more profit. Instead of making profit to the bank, it's better to just settle for less (Exora perhaps) n keep ur money in the bank n gain interest. That is his point, he is of the opinion that we shud spend wisely rather than getting blinded by that T badge.

    Sorry to everybody this is out of topic at a moment, I think I am being a basher so I have a persona attack right now. A blasher never live longer, I am safely if emblem with P logo. Have you guys ever talking Malay's language with people in Kelantan, I means people have a different speaking in different region/location, they have locality speaking. For example, KL people always speaking Malay with I, you, sure… UK English and American English… the Singlish… That's easy to know where are the people come from with how to they speaking. So my broken English let's you guys know that I don't have a higher education, a bahasa kampung let's you guys know that I am come from kampung. For people still don't know what I am talking please treat it as monkey talking. Finally in my heart, if an 80K Exora compare with 160K Wish, I will go to Exora. So it's all the best to Proton. tokmoh know what I means, perhaps Proton could give us more features they can or at least in the future. Proton is our national car indeed.

    my wife owns a 2 year old avanza and bought brand new when it was first launch. she used it for day to day ferrying children and her workers. On and off I will drive that car and it is very uncomforatble MPV. fuel consumption was bad (almost equal to my camry) and we decided to change it to NGV one year ago. The ride and handling is very loudsy and sometimes feel like sitting in a boat (bouncy). Due to the 3 years or 100,000 kms warranty, we have no choice but to send back to Toyota service centre and it always cost a bomb! I am looking forward to change this stupid avanza to Exora! My forst car was saga and later upgraded to Perdana. Except normal servicing, i dont remember requiring having going for a major repair for the saga. But the gear box of my Perdana went "kabut" after 4 years plus and have to change a 2nd hand one. Later sold the Perdana and bought this camry second hand. So far, no complaint about the car but never send it to Toyota service centre to service as it sucks! I will support Proton if it comes out with a Perdana replacement in the near future. Meanwhile, will continue to use the camry and save the money to buy perdana replacement. cheers

Just look at Gen 2 when first launch. My advise to all first time buyers, buy Perodua cars. At least you know that Perodua getting technology from Toyota and Daihatsu not like Proton not getting any new technology from Japan counterpart.

Just look at Gen 2 when first launch. My advise to all first time buyers, buy Perodua cars. At least you know that Perodua getting technology from Toyota and Daihatsu not like Proton not getting any new technology from Japan counterpart.[/quote]

    of coz the gen2 at that time are filled with quality problem..

    but nowadays, the quality is improving starting with persona..

    so if you want to buy avanza, my advice is be careful what u wish (no pun intended)..i have been driving the avanza for 4 years and planning to buy exora soon and discard the avanza

    Who said Perodua got it's Technology from Toyota? My third car Viva, new car, just bought it 9 month ago, I bought it to go around town,

    the rear passenger door can hear rattling sound. It's really annoying. Sound system is awful, engine sound is really loud, just like a motorboat, even worse than my wife's 5 years old Waja, and the Waja still sounds smooth.

    Before this, Perodua did make good cars, I had a Kancil once, now it's almost ten years old, still running well with a 660cc engine, I gave it away to my brother-in-law cause bought the VIVA. Now, they like neglecting their buyers. So, before you make any judgements make sure you know the facts right. Anyway, the word 'troubleshooting' is not suitable when tallking about the problems of a car. In a sentence term = "Troubleshooting is a form of problem solving. It is the systematic search for the source of a problem so that it can be solved" So, your problem with the Iswara and the Gen2, must had been resolved, right? Hehehe…

    Ke-chow!!

    yeahh…the plastic look cheap..

So you want to cool off your anger, you try to adjust your car seat. Seat adjusters PATAH!!! On both passenger and driver seat. FED UP with Proton!! There is no point of supporting Proton if they dont care about durability issues. Even the new Proton BML full of problems!! So you expect getting trouble free Proton Exora?

    I hope u are not 1 of despreate T salesman, dah antar ke kat proton edar SC. Jangan pegi EON SC ok. Pegi memana Proton Edar SC (sebaiknya mutiara damansara). ajukan masalah anda, Biar diaorang check tengok. Jiran aku kat umah belikan anak dia saga. Tengok Saga BLM tu teruk gak kena lanjan (budak muda, buat racing). tapi ok jer aku tengok, aku ada tanya macam mana saga tu. Dia cakap, mula merajuk gak ngan bapak dia sbb belikan saga, dia nak jazz baru. tu yang bantai cecukup tu konon nak tunjuk kat bapak dia yang proton nie teruk sangat kualitinya. tapi bila dah seminggu pakai dah sayang & selesa plak. Skarang nie dah lima bulan pakai, x ada masalah pun. Cuma dia dah modded sikit le. Rim tukar 16inch gold/chrome slam 1inch, dual exzos, spoiler evo 8. warna putih plak tu. lawa plak aku tengok. so Elvis batter u send ur car check up or your self see the Doc. if not your car, probly you are body builder that drive saga. :) peace.

    About the door. It is just a simple problem. Just change the luch or even luckier just change the rubber inside the handle. Simple and less headache.

    Proton cars have less problems comparing to the big boys and cheaper too. Most of it's spare parts are less than Rm500 actually. The important thing is, take car of your car. Go to service and follow the service schedule and your car will last long. It's all up to U.

    It's doesn't mean every 1st batch model have a manufacturer defect… Hey, look at 1st batch Persona.. no leaking engine, no broken door handle, no seat adjusters PATAH and etc.. So far, i only heard that my fren only complain about the alarm problem encountered his Persona and nothing else…. can i say it's has a low manufacturer defect? and Exora, Proton has tested all the 1st batch Exora by themself for about 6-7 months.. so maybe they will sell the 2nd batch to the publics? maybe? :)

    Thanks guys for listening. Unfortunately, i am a very careful driver. I think i am more careful than any of you guys. I NEVER drive above 90 km/h. I use my proton according to the instructions given in the manual. I wonder how many of you read the manual but i did. Here's the list of problem that will crop up with your new proton:-

    1. Seat Adjuster(senang patah)

    2. Remote failure

    3. Door handle patah(made of plastik!!)

    4. Break disk problem

    5. Air con

    6. Leaking roof

    7. Paint taking off

    9. Engine(leaking, noisy, overheating)

    These are some of the problems. Not only me okay. I discuss with friends, same thing. It looks like proton quality has gone downhill so much that i have lost hope. I am not saying you should not buy Proton. Be my guest!!! Go ahead and buy!!! I am writing so that you will know that Proton cars will borther you will problems. Very inconvenient to have problem car. Even, proton mechanic working with Proton also dont want to buy proton cars. I know coz i sent my car to him for repairs(he remind me to keep his hp no. coz like he said, proton cars will break down any time!!) The whole point is Proton cars has DURABILITY issue. And they dont wanna address this.

    Again thanks for you comments. I have feelings that most of you do not own Proton cars based on your comments. Maybe your fathers, mothers, brothers but i have feelings you guys dont. Coz contain of your comments clearly very biased and dont know anything about cars! I am driving below 90 km/h is because its prevent accident. Try it, you would get yourselves in any accident. As i always talked to my friends and people who use Proton cars so i get a lot of feedbacks. I think many of you dont even know what PCD. I was very supporting of Proton before, i bought 2 Proton cars and defend Proton like no other. But as time goes by, i realise how stupid ignorant can be. There's a lot of wrong practices in Proton(vendors selected based on corrupt practices), so even if Proton say QC accredited by European or whatever, its for the 'show' cars only. Parts supplied by inferior vendors going to kill Proton. Go to any Proton parts outlet and you will be suprised to know that Waja,Gen2,BML car handles are selling like hot cakes!!!Coz always patah ones…..

    look at the first 1993 wira to the last year 2000s wiras….yhe first wira with more Mitsu parts has less problems…..

    currently they r trying to change n improve because of the korean invasion..n also made in ASEAN japanese products… n honestly i can c it….

    but exora interior is really not up to date…compare to the wish for instance..or even the upcoming perodua MPV….

Its open secret that Korean and China made cars are cheaper but thanks to import tax, tariff and also markup profit, we end up losers. Soon, all cinema in Malaysia will introduce new regulation. Local movies price at RM7.00 and foreign movies at RM15.00. There, another new reality for us in Malaysia. And what ever happen to Afta? Oh, ya, classic case of us Malaysians forgeting things.

    Where have u been before? we've a conservation about the quality issues all this time.. yes, we've to admit that Proton cars are built with a low quality parts before but, since a couple years ago, proton's aggressively improved the quality and reducing the prices for any new model of proton cars… everyone know that the 1st btach gen2 was the worst model in proton line up model… every single part that be use for the interior accesories was made of cheap plastic… that why it's will easily broke or shade… but when did proton produce the 1st batch gen2? i think u know the answer.. :)

    as u said "Even, proton mechanic working with Proton also dont want to buy proton cars"

    But my personal mechanic and others workshop "tauke" and his "kuli" have a different perseption with Persona… i still remember when the last time i went to nearest workshop a year ago… the workshop tauke said that Persona quality is different with gen2 and planning to buying one for his son… aha.. a tauke who driving a toyota camry also intrested with Persona.. when i ask him why? the 1st, answer was.. leather dashbord.. funny isn't it? :) the next answer is the car is sedan body type.. the campro engine is smoother than previous campro.. and the most important thing is… he can get a better quality car than gen2 with a cheaper price.. it's is a Persona..

    so now, it's year 2009.. and we talking about new CEO, model, quality and price… The problem with malaysian mentality nowaday is, their perseption with proton base on their 5-6 years ago product… as long their still have a negative perseption in their mind… they will and still assumming proton was worse and will never ever go to nearest showroom and ask for a test drive..

    Hey mi big bro myvi had a problem with powerwindows switch also.. but his car have another major problem!! 1 years of owning.. he already change brake caliper and steering rack.. but replacing under warranty la.. but what happen when his car is out from warranty by next year if this problem could arising again?

    I've test driven his myvi before, manual tranny.. hey… every time i step on the clutch, and engaged 1st gear, i can feel the clutch kinda have a vibration when i slowly release the clutch.. go to P2 SC and complain about that and his car still have a similar problem as when the car went in.. The funny thing is.. SA said that the "clutch is not on the warranty list and cannot be claim"… terpaksa akur…. next complain was.. The car wobble at 90km/h of speed even at the straight lane and the steering quite unstable… not to mention high speed at any corner.. SC replace steering rack and.. tada.. that problem still exist… and SA said, all myvi handling was like that… so the conclusion is.. myvi handling is worst.. Why SC replaced brake caliper? hahaha… caliper making an annoying sound on uneven road and vibrate every time the car on braking… My statement base on my experiences.. "bukan suka2 nak cipta" .. :)

    i'm agreed with u.. "kalo nak layan corner, just forget it"..

    Persona xkan ada enjin CPS.. kalo dah masukenjin CPS, mcm mana dgn market gen2 dan neo cps? harga mesti dah x kompetitif lagi kan? :)

    [quote comment="227221"]So many diehard Proton fans here it seems. Hope you guys are not blindly believe Proton QC is honest(remember so many things going on internally i.e. vendors contracts). But thanks for pointing out Perodua weakness also. At least i know what to expect. I think the best cars Proton ever produced are Iswara and Wira. These cars are cheap and cheap to maintain. Very simple to maintain and easy on our pocket. But a little outdated. I cherished my old Iswara coz very few component to change. But the current Waja, BLM, Gen2, Pensona and now Exora…hhheeemmmm..I dont say i am anti-Proton, what i am saying is that Proton durability issue is STILL occurring and we as buyers and owners have the right for better product. But to blindly support Proton without thinking but emotionally enraged is something stupid. Like someone telling me to buy Merc when i pointed out the problems. I thought we are grown ups here and not Anwar blind supporters. Peace…[/quote]

    hey…i'm the proton fan boy…& i'm so lucky to own the 'ok' proton car.

    regarding the durability issue, i think it's up to how you maintain your car. how many 1st batch gen2 still running in our road?

    it's just a car. with the price i paid, i'm very satisfy with my car.

    with my household income, i can buy any 100k sedan…but why i still choose junk gen2? coz i can save few thousand ringgit on other 'investment'. for me car is a liability, so why i have to suffer high monthly instalment just to get a bit 'higher' quality car….

    & one more thing….i'm so proud to drive my Proton coz i'm MALAYSIAN…yeah i'dont agree with NAP, but what can i do? face the reality dude….if you think your single vote is powerful enough to change the G, then you can start dreaming about owning cheaper imported cars….(but then, will the new G change the policy that bring income to them….think again….

    Farghmee,

    Looks like your Mymi got disk problem and front tyre rim bengkok. If i were you i change the front tyre rim and skim the front disk. Problem solve. If wobble around 90km/h is because front tyre rim oledi out of shape and when you brake the disk also sufferred. Maybe you accidently hit something on the front wheel. Usually that how it start and also hantam pothole. So next time you see pothole…sssslllllooooowwww.

    Why drive 90km/h? I know most people drive above 90km/h and thats where the worst accidents happen. Most cars today are made soft to assorb impact especially front part. But from what i see(accident happen on daily basis in Malaysia) most drivers become careless and dont really anticipate what is 1 km in front of them. 90km/h is fast enough. And most cars are not made to go above 120km/h except European cars. Forget Korean, Japanese or Malaysian cars, very soft. If you driving fast and accident, terus mati, fine but if your leg broken in so many parts, then who is the hero…

    Price wise (same price bracket) better by 1. Nisan Grand Livina or 2. Kia Rondo. Avanza is build for 3rd world country with bad road condition and low income (high body with ladder frame) . The other options are for worldwide market with better build quality. It just so happen that Avanza is overprice in Malaysia due to tax & T's name (Mahal pun org beli, jadi buat apa jual murah)

    This one is true. Avanza made in Perodua, Rawang. No surprise Perodua MPV similar to Avanza. Most probable rebadge engineering, as usually with other Perodua cars i.e. Myvi, Viva, Kancil and Kelisa. Perodua dont do their own R&D. They let the father and mother do it for them (Toyota and Daihatsu). So this smart son just copy and paste.

    Aku baca lapora IEA yang oil reserve Malaysia by 2020 confirm habis. In fact pengeluaran minyak Malaysia semakin menurut setiap tahun. This report not based on Malaysia researchers but foreign. Petronas sendiri pun dah mention by 2012, Malaysia is net importer but i think because of the recession move forward to 2014. Are we ready to pay of oil based on market price? Nampak gaya, we dont even know or care that very soon we face the reality that we must import oil from other countries. US in early 50's was producing its own oil. If banding Malaysia, US gali di atas tanah like Texas and masa tu banyak jutawan minyak. Now, mana ada lagi jutawan minyak di US. Minyak dah lama habis and import from middle east. As ordinary Malaysians, the government fail to inform us of this or even if government do inform us, we will merajuk saying oil di Malaysia can last forever.

    Kereta kat langkawi tu memang patut pun harga macam tu sebab kualiti dah dikurangkan kepada -30% untuk aksesori dalaman manakala luaran pulak macam biasa je cuma sesetengah part tu dapat dalam malaysia jadi harga murah. Aku bukan nak sebelah kerajaan, bukan jugak nak bantah kerajaan. Tapi pikir sikit, berapa banyak ekonomi akan berkembang kalau x ada cukai ?. selain tu berapa banyak rakyat malaysia yang membayar cukai. Siapakah yang membayar cukai ?. Yang bising2 tu ada bayar cukai ke ?. Tau ke berapa peratus yang ditolak cukai kalau bandingkan negara lain ?. Jadi kalau ada yang kat sini yang X PERNAH BAYAR CUKAI, TOLONG DIAM. Cukai yang kerajaan dapat tu tau ke disalurkan kat mana.?. Tolong tengok sekolah kerajaan, taraf pelajaran Malaysia adalah antara terbaik mengikut kajian pertubuhan antarabangsa. Taraf kesihatan pulak macam mana ?. Jalan raya, Penggankutan, dll. Semua tu duit pembayar cukai tau. Ada yang cakap, proton dapat bantuan dari kerajaan. Bantuan macam mana tu, tu proton akan kena bayar balik bila masa dah sampai mengikut fasa tertentu. Pasal minyak pulak, kebanyakkan kita tau yang minyak kita berkualiti tinggi tapi kita tau tak kalau minyak kita saja yang dipakai di malaysia agak2 le brapa kita kena bayar. Sebab kualiti inilah, minyak kita perlu dicampur bersama minyak import untuk disesuaikan dengan penggunaan enjin dari pengeluar kenderaan seluruh dunia. Minyak kita tak banyak pun kalau dibandingkan dengan UAE tapi dari segi kualiti kita paling tinggi dan UAE perlukan ini. Kat sini kita dah tengok berapa banyak duit dapat masuk negara hasil penjualan minyak kita. Jangan kata minyak yang jual kat malaysia rendah. Minyak kat sini masih lagi berkualiti 20% bagus dari negara jiran. Cukai nie sebenarnya tak beban pun kalau kita tau apa yang nak kena istiharkan. Sorry Paul, off topic. Macam mana pun Exora pilihan aku, gejet dalam exora boleh tambah nanti. Mungkin dalam 3 ke 4 tahun dalaman Enjin mungkin dah ada peningkatan. (Harga tambah le sikit). :)

    Anyway, Perodua MPV most likely based on Daihatsu Sirion MPV with little restyle. Engine will be 1.5VVT. Looks like Myvi but just longer and higher. Showdown will be between Exora and Perodua MPV. The only advantage with Perodua MPV, you can interchange part with Toyota and Daihatsu, as usually. Like Myvi, many owners change bodypart that almost difficult to distinguish whether Toyota, Dahaitsu or Perodua. Just like the days when Saga, Wira and Iswara ruled the road. Those were fun days for Proton owners. I hope Proton would based their next Perdana on Mitsubishi Lancer and not on Renault or GM(worst choice).

    Overhead at thailand is much cheaper. Even thailand have used toyota like they own national car. If u are stay in thailand or near thailand border, u can see the used of toyota are high at there. So from export the product to thailand, it much cheaper to move all the factory to thai. Factory tax same as malaysia but low overhead, so more money can save.

    Usually multinational companies move from emerging countries to developing countries. At large scale productions, cost is the main concern. Vietnam will be next target for MNCs. As for Thailand, Toyota R&D are localised to suit regional car need. Toyota Virgo is one of the many cars produced with local R&D. You dont see Toyota Virgo or Avanza in western countries. Why Toyota didnt choose Malaysia? Let's look at Global Corruption Index just to get some clue…

    Hahaha…no funlah bashing you guys. There's one blog GutterUncensored where i am regular bashing, was so popular with huge followers that it was blocked. So bashing here like flirting with pondans. No pun intended. Yea, corruption everywhere. US is mother of all corruption with their new almost trillion dollar stimulus. Not me to say Malaysia corruption level, there's global benchmark. You can look at the report available in the internet. I dont get anything for bashing my beloved country Malaysia. I love Malaysia no matter what, even do PANAS(dont talk about global warming coz here HOT). I am proud to be a muslim and having many non-muslim friends.

    Well i saw quite a lot of ppl commenting on ferari, BMW and lambo thread. They even support and praise those cars. But i can bet most of them (99%) won't even buy the cars due to no money to spend.

I use a kelisa and my wife using a 4 years old waja. I still brought cars made in Malaysia cause I know Malaysian cars are cheap to maintain. So, in the long term, Malaysia made cars are good. Spare parts are available everywhere in Malaysia. No need to wait for spart parts from outside of Malaysia and waited 2 to 3 month just to have the cars fix. It's not a problem at all. Better think about buying a big house rather than buy an expensive cars. House prices will increased. Who knows, a Rm120,000 house might be RM200,000 in two years time!

    [quote comment="228670"]Kadang2 kami salesmen Proton ni guna RACUN and BAJA. Ah, yang aku kasi buruk2 Proton tu tengah tabur RACUN ler……yang BAJA tu pulak korang yang taburkan. Kalu Salesmen Proton tabur BAJA….penat bro…kena hentam customer dengan RACUN. Ini orang putih kata reverse psychology?[/quote]

    salesmen tabur RACUN biar rumput mati, customer tabur BAJA biar proton tumbuh. kerja senang biar salesman buat, kerja susah biar customer jadi kuli. orang cina kata ini reverse car.

    Trend nowadays built small cc engine with better horsepower and torque thus saving your $$ on Fuel.Same case for 05 2 litre engine which produce 135hp and 180nm of torque.New modern 1.6 engine churn out 125hp and 152nm of torque,Hmm i think just adequate for 5 adults and 2 kids.Even the Honda Freed 7 seater MPV is only 1.5 what do we have to say?Honda more powerful?

    I still think 1.6 will not be enough.I think the power to mass ratio by proton cars are really bad.

    aybe a 1.8with the current technology will do. A car should be engineered for the worst case scenario of 7big adults. Not just the average 5adults and 2kids.

    In case of 7 Adults i m sure that it wouldn't be fuel saving anymore right?

    Sadlay that's the case with Honda Freed 1.5 in SG.Current owners find it tough carrying 7 adults but then again it's an advantage for those only carrying kids and probably a few adults,That's their choice.I think Proton doesn't not have big problem upgrading the bore and stroke to 1.8 or even bulit a new engine.We shall wait and see the car performance and not assuming.

    [quote comment="227245"]Why drive 90km/h? I know most people drive above 90km/h and thats where the worst accidents happen. Most cars today are made soft to assorb impact especially front part. But from what i see(accident happen on daily basis in Malaysia) most drivers become careless and dont really anticipate what is 1 km in front of them. 90km/h is fast enough. And most cars are not made to go above 120km/h except European cars. Forget Korean, Japanese or Malaysian cars, very soft. If you driving fast and accident, terus mati, fine but if your leg broken in so many parts, then who is the hero…[/quote]

    Bro usually speed never kill,Its the drivers and other asshole that kill u.Then explain why in Autobahn where there's no speed limit seldom had accidents?Their accident rate is low among us.I've used to drive in Autobahn in a rented Kia Cerato at speed of 140kmh w/o problems.Its the mentality of the road users itself that play a big part.

    It looks like most of you like to drive fast. Be my guest, i wont stop you but if you get summons, thats you problem not mine, right? In Germany, if you drive 200km/h in autobahn, thats considered normal. But this is Malaysia bro. Come on, everyday accidents here. Front of my house also every year at least 12 accidents. I hope you guys because that statistic coz proud of been fast drivers. Even driving at 90km/h sudden impact is so severe, depan proton cars mesti hancur.

    1. true, 90km/h head-to-head collision is scary.

    2. due to FRONTAL COLLISION, EVERY CAR with proper impact-energy absorption characteristic will have the FRONT-END SMASHED, but the PASSENGER CABIN INTACT.

    ps: youtube for "crash test".

    satya, u have a point: power-to-weight ratio :)

    however, i suggest a proper comparison of power/weight between

    a car & a car, an mpv & an mpv, not a car & an mpv ;)

    as for me, i prefer test-drive it 1st as to "feel" the car/vehicle.

    I get it bro. But saying the car is very fast and the driver is very careful, does that make sense? But i guess most of you miss my point. I am referring to driving on normal roads not tolled highways.

    Actually, kereta yang paling cheap to maintain is Iswara. The simplest design and parts everywhere. So yang mau kereta low cost is Iswara. Cuma mungkin outdated sikit. Most important regular maintainance of car…
