The Royal Malaysia Police (PDRM) could be looking to add the Proton Iriz and the Proton Suprima S into its fleet of patrol cars soon – photos of the said units have been uploaded on the Friend of PDRM Facebook page. Information revealed on said page states that the Iriz is set to replace the Perodua Kancil patrol cars while the larger Suprima S models should see duty at larger police stations.
Should that be the case, expect the handover ceremony to take place as soon as next month. The move should be seen as one of the many efforts conducted by the force to help improve and elevate its image amongst the general public. Recently, the force will also refresh its fleet by adding a total of 1,200 new patrol cars to replace units that are over eight-years old.
The new Proton Iriz and Suprima S patrol cars – of which photos have been circulating on Facebook recently – appear to sport the latest graphic that are seen adorning the new patrol vehicles, as well. The livery now adds on reflective green stripes on the bonnet, flanks and even the tailgate from the looks of said cars.
Also, PDRM could be looking into the possibility of equipping its patrol cars with the C4i system – said platform involves the business of directing, controlling, communication, coordination and information, with Global Positioning System (GPS) technology.
Looking to sell your car? Sell it with Carro.
……yet still cannot catch real criminals
They cannot clean their image lah. Even with foreigners, everyday, they go harass the bangla for money. Stop one bangla, can get Rm100. Stop 10 bangla, already RM1000 lah free money.
Stop Indon women, can get other things free also!
Don’t worry, the company to put the sticker Polis alone on the side of the car already can make millions.
this is how contracts work in Malaysia. Polis always change cars or uniform. One day blue lah, one day black lah, one day. New contracts….billions.
We should be proud that Malaysia is 1 out of the 15 countries(total 196 countries) to have their national car as their police cars
Japan – Toyota Crown
Korea – Hyundai Sonata
China – Chery QQ
India – Mahindra Scorpio
Germany – BMW 5 Series
Italy – Alfa Romeo 159
Spain – Seat Leon
Sweden – Volvo V70
France – Peugeot 308
Russia – Lada 1500
Czech Republic – Skoda Octavia
UK – Vauxhall Astra
USA – Ford Crown Victoria
Australia – Holden Commodore
Malaysia – Proton Iriz
You can scratch Aussie out soon (no more Holdens) and Seden as well (V.Cars belongs to Geely)
Swedish police should swap their volvos for Saab. At least Saab is 100% Swedish.
When PDRM use foreign cars, you guys say waste money la, no confidence in national car la. But when PDRM use our national car, you guys say Proton no sales la, clearing stock la. Sigh.. You keyboard warriors are really hard to please
OMG…Polis feels very happy bcos so fast they can have new model like Iriz and suprima…In another way, it shown Proton struggle selling these two models here…very tak laku…
Sorry proud about what? State the source of your information.
Why should we be proud that our police are using failed cars!?
If Proton was on par with Alfa 159 or BMW 5, I would have no qualms. At least as reliable as the Ford Crown Victoria so needs minimal service hours.
Keep producing junk and you wanna be proud of junk? Probably you don’t have ambition in your life.
Well said
This shows how desperate proton is trying to clear lots of unsold stocks.Since Gomen guarantee payment,no need hassle get financing from banks.Now 2 out of 10 Proton applicants,approval rate given by banks.
Sad,sad episode from Shambolic Protong.
Stop complaining! without police you are dead now!
with police you get blown to pieces.. still the same ending anyway.. so your point is moot..
pdrm needs serious donation..
Mr hailthpurist you are talking nonsense and totally empty. We Malaysian are very proud with the police. Please do official report for any wrongdoing by them rather than keep blaming the whole organization. Congrates to the police and keep it up :)
Proton have bad RV! No profit! Buy Jazz better than junk Iriz!
pdrm shud use Vios, hi RV, can sell back later with hi sentimental value what more if the vios patrol car carry Najib
police car where got rv. ask them use totota also no use.
it’s good move actually to use a cheap car with decent performance with good reliability for police car. though i bet not so cheap when sold by crony…
Good reliability?! You might wanna consider looking up the dictionary for the word “reliability”
Reliability as a cash cow for certain people. Also reliability right?
Silly…police car why need rv
toyota made excellent taxis..
Funny to see that VW jetta was not posted here. For there are some spyshots of Jetta tested by PDRM as well. If PDRM chooses Jetta, that will be very interesting. More interesting will be when it breaksdown by the roadside, I will be the 1st to tell them “Welcome To the VW Family!”
Have you ever seen a Jetta breakdown on the roadside? Well, I never seen it before. Was curious that you own a Jetta and you faced the similar issue before or you are going to tell me the story that you heard from somebody?
Actually trying to clear out their so call “game changer” in the best way
OMG…again…What to do? Proton have many Iriz and suoplimau stock in hand…so need Gomen help loh…
Iriz- patrol taska and kindy and taman/taman
Suprima-patrol redlight district
Inspira-patrol highways
accordana-patrol VVIPs houses and harlems
Preve-patrol shopping districts
Canggih nya,Proton
Help improve their image? Nope not gonna work when they are catching the wrong people who are defending the country’s name!
The day PDRM officers stop asking money from offenders to make the saman disappear, that is the day their image will be clean. Until then, nothing they do can clean their image la.
Sell to police and public still monthly sales way behind perodua. Manyak kisian.
naper x pakai P2 Axia or Myvi, jimat minyak beb
sebab Axia or Myvi tak power mcm Iriz dan Suprima
axia & myvi no safe, very tin kosong maa.. no VDC how to catch criminals? Iriz has VDC so the car is very safe, when the car is safe thus our cops can protect us, if no cops how to berniaga peacefully? Come on la tauke… pakai otak sikit la.. haiyaa!
An effort to help improve and elevate its image amongst the general public? Haha..more like to help Proton clearing up unsold models.
Kereta perutdua memang la jimat minyak dah berat body kerata ringan mcm tin kosong….
Saudi Arabia pakai Lambo, M5, Cayenne…. PDRM pakai Iriz, wow, aku malu.
Slam Proton so much but still got coverage..laughable, but I salute the persistence. Well, short and to the point: crap cars for a crap force.
Good job PDRM.
Change all fleet to Proton.
Love your country , clear my stock
Oops overlooked putting in sirens!
How to refresh their image? From sleeping in the Wajas, now they will be sleeping in their Iriz cars.
Have you not seen so many Polis Waja parked tepi jalan or under a tree. You think they are doing CSI surveillance work?
They are fast asleep after eating their nasi lemak.
please go Hartamas near soul out corner sure see a lot day time..
syukurlah PDRM pakai kete ni. Boleh tangkap penjenayah dengan senang. syukurlah!
This is very simple. Sales of Proton are so bad. So gomen give directive to all Gomen departments to buy Iriz. Not just PDRM.
Yearly you see MAA figures so high, half of it bought by Spanco and the other half bought by gomen departments.
I can see the logic to using IRIZ but why Suprima? Boot space not as good as Preve
Ugly livery is ugly.
period.
if i’m the IGP… i will order 100 lotus evora and 100 lotus exige/elise..baru ada kelas n gain respect from people..
Where can like that,
Nanti mamat yg org puja masuk bersih tu xdapat duit dari gomen tender.
Dia start dia untung.
Ya, buang bazir duit rakyat.
If Im IGP, I will get 100 Abrams, 100 PT91, 100 Armata, 100 Humvees with 50 cal, and 10 Barricades(Bayformers version) to punish and enslave….
later being accused for bazir wang rakyat
Excellent idea. This evora and exige lotus are very healthy vegetables. We can supplement the daily kangkung and bayam. Bitter gourd also I heard is good as ulam. Memang naik kelasifikasi and tambah respektasi.
Bahasa mana kau ambil ‘kelasifikasi’, ,respektasi’? Klasifikasi adalah, sam juga dengan reputasi, respek.
You want to make PDRM look funny ?
Because that’s how you make PDRM funny.
Proton must come to realise that there’s a big difference between its production capacity and MARKET DEMAND. Proton never seemed to learn that its lousy, low quality, fuel guzzling junk does not appeal to the market anymore, unless to people who are low on budget and has no choice but forced to buy lousy, low quality Proton.
Proton like to over-produce its junk and overstock its Tanjung Malim or Shah Alam factories. The solution? Simple. Just ask government agencies to take up those unsold stockpile or ask Spanco to clear up whatever junk left in the stockyard. Crony business as usual.
Proton is very much heading to 15% TIV this year. Albeit launching one model after another, Proton sales continue to plunged from 22% TIV in 2012 to just 17% last year. No amount of new model will save Proton if these crony vendors who make lousy, low quality parts continue to exist like leeches in Proton’s supply chain.
I am very happy to see Proton continue to plunge and struggle, and I’ll be equally happy to see Proton’s TIV drop to just 10% of the TIV in 3-4 years time, judging from its annual plunging rate of 2% of TIV, thus becoming a MINORITY in its HOMEGROWN market. No amount of airbags, CFE, Preve, Iriz, Suprima, Perdana or whatever junk could save this ailing crony leech, who had for decades, deprived Malaysians their hard earn money and create so many sufferings with its utterly lousy quality cars.
For fanboys, truth is hard to swallow, even more so if it’s backed up by facts and figures. If you love Proton so much, go buy 10 of its junks and stack them in your porch to show how patriotic you are. Talk is cheap, action is substance.
Nice one. Safety standards major violation also not enough to make the blind supporters see. What else.. give up on the Proton crazies.
Proton is going up and up while your god company UMW/Perodua is going down and down. Talk is cheap eh.
Ah, John the BN ass licker. You want facts? Here you are:
http://paultan.org/2015/01/16/proton-perodua-market-share-falls-below-foreign-brands/2014-malaysia-market-share/
Which of this graft show you that Proton is going up? You should go to the hospital to have an eye surgery. If you got no money for eye surgery, go ask from you 2.6 billion boss to donate some to you.
Oh ya, I’ve almost forget that you’re a fanboy, who can’t argue rationally with facts and figures but rather with your blind emotions and pathetic denial syndrome.
No, I back up my talk with facts and figures, your talk is CHEAP. Go buy 10 Proton junk and stack them at your front yard now, save Proton with your patriotism.
they should do the more powerful version of the cars. and perhaps 4WD version. that save us some 250k for the mitsu evo each.
a 4WD, 350bhp supercharge patrol car for medium speed chase should be enough.
as for the high speed chase, i still want my supervolace lambo clad in police liveries
Proton have bad RV! No profit! Buy Jazz better than junk Iriz!
that “POLIS” font is very disappointing.. looks like some cheapo aftermarket design..
new car same attitude… same shit
Malaysian nowadays,when PDRM use kereta jenama luar negara,you said membazir duit lah,tak bangga dengan kereta lah.But when use our national car,you guys said no sales lah,clearing stock lah.Haizz….You guys kiasu lah.Oh ya,and for your information,PDRM also is adding VW Jetta to their fleet.I think VW also clearing their stock right?
Kasi you satu like. Was waiting for someone to say something like this. Bravo!
Me too bro..hehe..so complicated..
Which place of Malaysia you are living? Current jetta is having promotion, lots of it are on the road. Don’t you see it?
Now criminals will need at least a Golf GTi to outrun the police in a hot pursuit.
Don’t be silly! For these proton, they only need Myvi.
No, Vios TRD will do the job perfectly. I thought a Toyota salesman will say that line.
PDRM should add a variety of police cars like the UK police.Sports cars,normal cars,luxury cars,etc,etc.PDRM did a great move by adding the Iriz as its smallness would be great for chasing criminals in back roads and rat runs which would be simple for the Iriz and not the Suprima and Preve due to the biggersize.
No one wants the junk, so Police got to be DBKL.
SALES R SO BAD.. so it is obvious that P1 need 2 clear its stock.. simple as that. siapa lagi mahu tolong? govt. lorr.. i would like to suggest that P1 do a promotion 2 govt. officers, give them HUGE discount, sure LAKU! KIPIDAP PROTON!
Should use the new Perdana
And u let taxi gangs attack uber drivers bcos lets face it,there really is no law around,police cars being Ferrari or iriz,no difference…we r stll not safe..its just BS all around
yup, thats your 2016 budget spent before announce..
They look like older build models. The Suprima S has a 2013 plate, the Iriz has a 2014 one.
If so, then it’s good that Proton plans to rid of their old stock in a purposeful manner. At least now the PDRM have more 5-star safety rated cars in their fleet.
When you’re going for blindness treatment?
Like all the Proton crazies, keep praising the failed junk cars to the sky. As a proud Malaysian, I want Proton to produce good, reliable, safe cars and compete; not junk. You and all Proton crazies don’t know what is patriotism; you are the same junk Malaysians who caused MAS to fail because your ‘proudness’ can’t see its weaknesses. Enough about 5-star safety when its proven zero assurance that the real car is same as the NCAP test cars. Enough of your nonsense.
Chill, he’s just a collage boy who drive an old Saga inherited from his parents. Let him graduate, find a RM2,000 fresh grad job, then put maybe half of his hard earned salary onto one of Proton’s junk, see whether he’ll still be the Proton fanboy who praise those junk in virtually every auto site.
Let’s pray his lousy Proton which he is going to buy will fail him and burn a hole in his meager fresh-grad wallet by experiencing “alamilah kerosakan Proton”. Or maybe he’s just a hypocrite, still driving his parent’s old saga without buying a new Proton himself after he graduate. Meanwhile, thousands and millions of Malaysian still forced to buy Proton with their hard earn money and suffer from the lousy quality and never ending problem car. Aero is just a fanboy who live with Proton wet dream by visiting Proton carnival without using his money to buy a single Proton, he has no merit to speak for millions of Malaysians who has been deprived, cheated and abused by lousy, fxxcking Proton for the past 30 years.
A classic example of a “keyboard warrior” here. Shame you
If you are still alive, I am from 2019 – the future. I don’t think you ever driven a Proton before, judging from how you comment here. I bet you are driving a Mercedes Benz or any other foreign brands and talk cock. What a pathetic human being you are, no sense of patriotism to our very own brand. Regardless of Proton or Perodua – both of them has their own ups and downs, and Proton has gone through their downs in 2015-ish. I am pretty sure they are improving now in 2019 – with new models such as the X70, 2019 Proton Persona and 2019 Proton Iriz, and the upcoming X50. If you still want to say that Proton is useless because they are rebadging again – well at least they tried, instead of just sitting behind the screen and shooting with keyboards like you, single most pathetic human being on earth. Or come out with your own car producing company. Pussy boy.
How come the produced cars are different than the one which have been certified by NCAP? You think NCAP institution is your grandma’s company? Hatred is blind too.
Both entities cannot clean their name anymore.
Why I would never buy Proton again has something to do with my past history with its service center attitude but also the fact that Proton are more willing to sell cheaper outside of Malaysia than to fellow Malaysians. So I just wait until they bust ‘again’ or begin to appreciate Malaysians more. We are not obliged to buy Made in Malaysia when it’s overpriced.
Iriz & suprima sure can tapaw myvi racers in the future..
Kalau Polis pakai Proton KAU kata tolong abiskan stok.
Kalau Polis pakai Perodua KAU kata tolong tambah sale.
Kalau Polis pakai Jetta KAU kata tolonglah rosak.
Kalau Polis pakai Ferrari KAU kata tolonglah kesian duit rakyat.
Waktu rumah KAU masuk PEROMPAK KAU kata TOLONG-TOLONG tak kiralah apa Polis nak pakai kreta apa pun.
