The Proton P2-30A Global Small Car, scheduled for a Malaysian launch sometime in the first half of this year, continues its cold weather testing in winter Europe.
Our European spy photographers captured this P2-30A ‘resting’ on a trailer, presumably en route or perhaps on the way back from cold climate testing. We notice that those are Gen2 facelift wheels, the first time we’ve seen them on a P2-30A.
There are a few other cars that are accompanying the P2-30A on the trailer, but they’re all cars that have been revealed. There’s a BMW 3-Series F30 Modern Line in front of it and a BMW i3 on top of it.
