Earlier today, local outfit TuneD announced the debut of its first range of aftermarket bodykits and styling enhancements for three Proton models, the tailored packages being designed specifically for the Saga, Preve and the Persona.
These add-ons aim to offer new styling options for the local aftermarket enthusiast, and introduce a number of exterior and interior revisions to the cars. Like that seen on the TuneD Saga and TuneD Persona, three tailored packages are available for the Preve.
The range starts with the Standard package, and the items are identical to those found on the other two cars. In the bag is a new bodykit (front/rear bumpers and side skirts), LED DRLs, a shark fin antenna and four TuneD emblems.
The car also gets the Fierce Red signature shade and the blacked-out pillar treatment, the latter presenting the vehicle with a ‘floating roof’ look.
As before, the Executive package dresses up the interior with quarter leather upholstery and new soft-touch door trim and inner boot covers. It also adds on LED lighting for the headlamps (high/low beam and pilot) as well as rear garnish lights. Going the Premium package route adds on one final piece of kit, in this case 17-inch multi-spoke alloys and tyres.
The company says that pricing of the TuneD packages for the Proton models starts from RM5,000, and order books are now open. Maybank credit card holders will be able to purchase the TuneD kit with a zero-interest, easy-payment instalment scheme.

The Preve, even with ANCAP 5 star rating also, the car managed to be a failure in sales. The car failed so miserably, it is like the Ertiga.
I don’t know why TuneD thinks by having a bodykit, their sales would do well.
Hello TuneD, the car has failed. Are you stupid to do research and designs on a failure?
Something is wrong with a company spending money on a failed product.
Overall achievement for the past 33 years i give proton 40 out of 100 points which is D
You being generous.I would give proton E for Effort and F for Fuel consumption.. equally failed (EF)
Overall, achievements for toyota past 70 years I gip a F–, for deliberately tryin to reduce ASEAN population. And overcharging us while their at it.
What does this article got to do with Toyota?
Kesian john… So desperate for sales need to bash other car brands in Proton article?
Overall achievement for toyotaik i give 40 out of 100 points which is D (they start equipped their cars with VSC and 7 airbags out of desperation, not because they want to).
Meanwhile overall achievement for pookedua for the past 23 years, i only give 1 out of 100 points which is Utter Failure (initially i want to give them ‘telur ayam’ score, but that 1 point is because only Biza Advanced equipped with ‘compulsory’ VSC) .
If like that, i got to be fair and give 1/100 points to Proton too. Why? Only Saga Premium equipped with ‘compulsory’ VSC
Guys, 40/100 is too generous for Proton according to john’s logic. F- is more appropriate
I’m so proud of our Proton. We have been around for more than 30 years and we have our own local tuning shop that makes it look better. Sapot local tuning, sapot local car

Jepunis cars aka toyolkar suck
Dh test drive Ertiga ke? tnya jer.. :)
dan Proton x rugi pn sbb 99% suzuki cuma logo je proton
TuneD, but no tuning engine at all..
TuneD=Tune Decorative!
Aih… Change the name to McD lah. The kits look pathetic like Happy Meal toys
More “Looney Tunes” for Proton? Proton is so far down, they dunno what the customers wants. Expect more bashings from their salesmen when this latest tuning fails.
Sophisticated thinking
Sophisticated tuning
uglie’d is more suitable.
Most Proton owners, even they get RM200 less on their cars also, they are so grateful cause RM200 is a lot of money to them.
Do you think they will spend RM5000 plus on a bodykit?
Most Pookedua owners, even they get RM2 less on their cars also, they are so grateful cause RM2 is a lot of money to them.
But hor, they forgot already that they already spend RM5000 plus extra in total for ABS brake modules and VVT-i plus another RM2000 for their beloved ‘GearUpToHell’ bodykit.
GearUp package is to cover up their ugly AssUp design failure. Then now they launch their AssHurt facelift causing first batch buyers to really feel bad.
Ya…but better than gear up
pehhhh…wat a front grill. would love to meet the designer
Please lah TuneD, your design is ugly!
Yes…is ugly. Local designer only got that kind of standard
Biasalah bang, ni local tuner
Much more elegant.
Why PT even bother with this lousy ah beng kit..and separated into 3x different post somemore
I was thinking the same. PT got share in TuneD?
Only villain think like that
When TRD nismo ah beng kits reviewed here basher dun persoaled pulak
Topkek
Since Toyota have TRD, Proton gotto follow with TuneD
no increase in power output?
RM5K for cosmetics only… sigh
April fool on 5th May?
Should have renamed the company to detune instead.
For Proton, it’s “Looney Tunes”
Any difference at all?
Keyless entry ,push start button ,leather seat ,Sharpton antena, ugly bodykit,float paint saga
No Need 2 tune here tune there la. That is $$$ Not well spend. Better save some $$$ 4 rainy days ahead.
BTW, when is P1 replacing the aged Preve ??! Better sell all your old stock NOW B4 end of the year or U have 2 give more discounts.
SAAB in da haus. the revival!
urghhh
What u expected? Axia gear up also same like that
The preve is already underpowered for a turbo powered car. I feel that proton should facelift the current preve, it needs longer wider headlights and the belt line should have a steep gradient which results in a bulky rear.
Where got underpower? 205Nm goes to 100km/h for around 9 secs
SDAerodynamics Proton Preve bodykit much better laaa…
Sack the designer!
Syabas… Brabus equivalent for Proton… Berambus
Merc Brabus breaks down freq, how?
Aiyo. R3 kit look better than this. Too much chrome. And fugly grille. Remind me of Gen-2 that once rebadge by Youngman. Same level of fugliness.
Who said my Gen 2 ugly?
Hehehe. From Brabus(top tuning house) 2 Berambus(go 2 Hell). You’re the Man Bro. Cheers
kesimpulan untuk 3 buah biji kereta proton memang susuai dengan nama nya. “Tune Down”. If i were one of the car owner i would rather put on some sticker and happy enough with the outcome.
The design that insults ASEAN pipu. Stop this pointless ‘dressing’ and gip what customers want
Somehow it turned out uglier than the original
Nampak macam ribut, lari macam siput…
ERmm more like nismong Almari and TeeArDee Vios catfish
Saga does not come with LED headlamps. Thus installation of LED headlamps is consider illegal by JPJ. So this company is promoting illegal stuffs.
please upgrade design for rear light..
One month late for an April fool TuneD. Try again next year.
its ok laa…not too bad…its family sedan afterall…its not sport car maa…if u want bodykit like sport car u sndiri design laa or spend all your money buying lamborghini…sighhh
ugly design make the ugly car uglier. look so 90s
Just bought a Hyundai. Good price, and much better quality. Loving it.
Sorry ya, Proton.
Rubbish! The original design is way better
We decided that the models are interesting enough to have individual posts, rather than having all three in a single post.
FYI, all our Advertorials are clearly marked. This isn’t one.
IMO, the Preve is a well proportioned nice design. If this car is wearing a Toyota or Honda badge it will be a different proposition altogether. There will be a six month waiting list.
I don’t know how people can be so ungrateful sometimes. You guys keep counting the failures of proton while blinding yourself towards their success stories. Guys, be positive once in a while. Proton is our own country’s brand. In South East Asia, no other countries got their own national carmaker, but we have two companies that we can be proud of!
Sure, proton got much to learn, but do you think its easy to learn from other companies theae days? Its not like 100 years ago when Toyota or Yamaha went to learn about car and motorcycle in the US. They got it easy. But proton, however difficult, managed to actually stand firm among others.
Its not easy to manage proton, if you guys think you have better ideas, why dont you create your own brand and see how it goes from there. I bet you guys can tapau toyota or nissan like it is nothing right?
Instead of condemning everything that proton did, how about we give our support to them, be proud for once. You guys are so proud of Japanese brands that you put our own brand into the gutter. Japanese brands are japanese, dude, proton is our brand. When you bash proton, its like you bash your own son while being proud of your neighbor’s son. Cherish what we have today, because you dont know how jealous other people of our country’s brands, be it proton or perodua.
