Ah, the Persona R seems to be getting sighted more and more often these days. It looks like Proton is ramping up the on road testing, but it must still be quite some time until the launch as there’s still lots of camo on the car. Reader Peter Low sent in these shots of two Persona R prototypes on the highway.
Actually since there’s not much to see with these heavily disguised spy shots other than a sign that the car is slowly moving closer to production, what’s more interesting is a certain blue car that was escorting these two Proton Persona R prototypes.
We’ll come to that in a post after this.
