Proton has introduced an Executive version of its 2.0 litre CVT Inspira – the variant replaces the 1.8 CVT Executive in the model lineup, slotting in between the 2.0 CVT Premium and 1.8 MT Executive.
Most of the kit found on the 2.0 Premium is on the 2.0 Executive – from the steering wheel audio switches and paddle shifters to the auto light and rain sensors, it’s all here. What’s different, based on the feature specifications list, is that the Executive’s seats and door trim finishing is in fabric (as opposed to the Premium’s leather fitment), the wipers don’t feature automatic speed adjustment and the bodykit has been omitted. Fresh to the car is a new 16-inch wheel design.
As for exterior colours, there’s no Plum Red for this one, with the Premium’s shade being replaced by Elegant Brown; otherwise, Tranquility Black, Genetic Silver and Solid White are shared by both variants.
The revisions make for a significant drop in the asking price over the Premium variant though – the 2.0 CVT Executive goes for RM86,900 (metallic) and RM86,450 (solid), on-the-road, with insurance, which is RM5k less than the 2.0 Premium’s RM92,015 price. It also isn’t too far a hike from the 1.8 CVT Executive’s, which was RM85,015 (metallic).

AI-generated Summary ✨
Comments on the Proton Inspira 2.0 CVT Executive variant focus on its attractive design, especially the redesign front bumper, and value for money with features like the Mitsubishi MIVEC engine and good handling. Many buyers are excited about the price point, discounts, and the car's Japanese parts origin, seeing it as a better choice than competitors like Vios or City. Some expressed concern about the CVT issues such as overheating and NVH levels, while others debated the badge versus the car's quality and reliability. The disappointment with the lack of a manual transmission option was a recurring theme, along with comparisons to Mitsubishi Lancer and other models. Overall, comments are a mix of enthusiasm for the value and handling and criticisms about the limited engine choices and rebadging strategy.
