Let see what our young designers thinking…Don’t tell me all design are ala lamborghini el ferrari…
Nope.. I think young designers (uni students to be more precise) can follow the flow of Proton’s design with “future P1” elements..and maybe it will catch your eye better than the design of lambo or ferrari..
Cross finger bro…
Years ago, they launch Savvy “Designed by Lotus”, tak laku…
Years later they launch a new model “Designed by the teen”, you think will laku?
Not for production. You dun read?
Same Lorrr comment syok sendiri lor like his 5S laa..haha..
Bro, give chance la to our youngsters to sharpen their design skill… this is for our later generation. hoping one day we can see our own Malaysian guy have the opportunity to work with Ferrari or at least Merc or BMW.
Jadi daripada ko memekak menghina orang, kenapa kau tak design sendiri. Inilah masa nak tunjuk kehebatan design ko sebab ko pengutuk tegar. Setakat nak kutuk, tikus kat belakang rumah ko pun boleh buat
Syoknya sendiri.

You can’t built-up another level above if the fundamental of the building was built only for a single storey load.
Whatsoever this is a long term affect from Msian educational & culture developed from the vision & mission set.
Almost everything we are only touching surface without explore the depest possibilities.
Thus,
As long as the engine could produce power to move ton+ object, that is it while outside from land of boleh is optimizing from all possibility.
Design is one thing, how is your FORM, FIT, FUNCTION quality & durability of next phase.
Moving another phase how is your integration quality?
What was the achievement on completed assembly also what is the elements needed to improve compared other car makers?
Did anyone in the top management driving towards design & operation excellent ???
Perodua is busy collecting orders by the hundreds for the new Axia.
proton should be rushing the launch of GSC, not competitions(alto important)
A one month delay may mean a difference of 5 to 10 thousand units.
Without new products,Sept and Oct may be slower months in terms of sales.Sales pick up again in Nov/Dec due to clearance of stocks and price rebates as 2015 looms.
Protong,time is running out.
well, u said it is a failure..why bother?
Agree. Same as person who cared to post and said he dun care. Should see doc coz that is SICK
Proton is burning tax payer money to do this and we shouldn’t bother?
Japs dun bother if their gomen helps their local companies
You want to provoke bolehland people here?
dah la ruffstuff…
Your excellency,if Protong konk out(gone bust totally),taxpayers grants go direct to perodua.
If it is half dead like now,your taxes will be channelled to this nightmarish car producer.They are asking 1.7 billion Rm.
You like it or not,your taxes will be chanelled to P1 and P2.
I would prefer Protong to be totally ‘bungkus”than be a liability to all,including you.
so why asking p1 to release new car now..let them go kaput la..don la ask when they want to launch new car..genius.
I did not ask for P1 to release new car.Just stating that Perodua stands to gain with each month of delay by Proton.
Proton should not exist in the first place.
I really admire you as a diehard hardcore Proton fanboy who has no conscience when taxpayers are ripped off by high taxes when they opt for alternative brands.
stating or not it look that u want p1 to launch quickly so that p2 not gaining too much…
do i look fanboi/kipas susah mati to u?..if not mistaken i never praising/boasting p1 car that can be consider fanboi.. im oni stated the obvious..
Work harder la albert lee, dont blame other or something for your own hard living.
You must be mr.handout .I have been working hard without blaming others.
Yala, work hard lar, don’t be like Proton, sales good or not, begging for money. Build quality good or not, begging for money.
Not everyone so lucky like Proton in the world. lol
So what, that money for RnD. Before you say Proton no RnD, any outsourcing doesn’t mean it does all for you. It’s not as easy as you think. A lot more to do than mere rebadging.
hanya sekadar untuk budak budak… sesuai sgt
do not underestimate youth ideas.
Proton need a new engine. Or ensure the Campro can get to Euro 6 and beyond while achieving 20km to the litre and bettering Campro power and torque figures.
Or a modern diesel engine that can give a Proton 1000km a tankful.
Whatever the juice Proton need as well transmissions good enough to deliver all these. Auto and manual. Definitely not the clutch type CVT!
But it’s busy collecting design from students. Two things they are slow to teach in uni. Design to cost and time!
Less than 10 comments so far, proved that nobody cares about this “competition” lah..they r all busy booking the new Axia
I’ve seen too many armchair experts in design department in paultan.org
I would like to see their chance to show their own design out of their expertise. common, prove it.
Proton’s chief designer can resign lah.
Gaji buta.
No point lah. Just rebadge honda models lah.
We don’t need a Malaysia car …that wastes public money for years….waste of time to build a car that can’t sell abroad…no economic of scales….
Gimmick ideas, here and forever. In the end Proton will using Mitsubshi Design, Renult Design, Citroen Design and lastly Honda Design…. you just name it. So what is the point.
Nowadays cars look similar between each other, copy paste job. So boring looking at BMW, Audi and Merc, not fresh at all and it’s expected. So what?
Proton is like cancerous. Never ending spreading pains and diseases. Taxing the nation, producing toxic. If those blind supporters are too happy about that, please contribute to proton with your own money and not the expense of others cuz, it’s our choice to say no to proton.
If not, juz go back and eat your own crap.
What toxic? Another uncle talking kork here lol. If you are too old to create something new dun hold youngsters. Your time is finish already, too bad when you were young your brain was too dumb to think, when you are old you only know to bash others. You are the real toxic here.
ingeniust-not!
ops… go back and eat your crap
BMW 5/7 series is best car on earth . Kia use bmw chassis to produce their new cars. So proton too should do the same. Take note young designers
