Here it is, boys and girls – our first proper look at the 2016 Proton Perdana‘s new face, courtesy of Instagrammer akhmuadz (D’Zunnur Chauntique on Facebook). Thanks for the hashtag mention, mate!
The photo shows the new Perdana in full, as it appeared in the local movie Filem Kapsul that opened today. This adds on to the car’s rear that we’ve already seen, also through the new film.
As you can see, the upcoming D-segment sedan gets its own unique face that differs from the current government-use Perdanas, which are essentially rebadged eight-gen Honda Accords. The two-element grille is particularly interesting, as it flows into the headlights separately.
It’s certainly a modern looking front end, that’s for sure, more so with the distinctive chrome line within the front bumper. Whether or not this front end gels well with the fastback-like roofline, however, is up to your own taste and preference, we suppose.
So, what do you think of this new look? Tell us in the comments section.
Also, watch the Filem Kapsul promo clip that featured the car below.

AI-generated Summary ✨
Comments on the 2016 Proton Perdana's front design are generally positive, praising its updated, European-inspired look, with some noting a resemblance to the Accord or Jaguar XF. Critics are concerned about the rear design, which many find unattractive or lacking cohesion with the front. Some comments compare the rear lights to high-end European models, while others feel the overall design is a rehashed Accord with minor modifications. Several commenters express hope that Proton will improve quality and pricing, but skepticism remains about the value and design, highlighting past disappointments with Proton’s quality control. Overall, the front design receives admiration as modern and stylish, but the rear and overall cohesion face mixed reactions.
