There is now footage of the Proton Iriz R5 rally car tackling the Goodwood forest rally stage, and it looks quick. Prepared by Mellors Elliot Motorsport, the Iriz R5 rally car is built by Mellors Elliot Motorsport, a UK-based motorsport firm which has been preparing the Proton Iriz into a WRC2-eligible rally car.
Here in separate video clips, the Proton Iriz R5 dons a gravel/rough road chassis configuration, compared to the larger wheeled, lower-riding setup seen before that. The Iriz R5 showed great promise and appeared to be going quicker and quicker, according to the commentator. Its driver certainly couldn’t be faulted for not trying, as the second video shows the Iriz R5 clipping the hay bale on the inside of a left-hand bend, pitching it unto two wheels.

Under the hood, the Iriz R5 packs a modified 4B11T engine from the Mitsubishi Evolution X, albeit with sleeved cylinders to bring its displacement to 1.6 litres, in line with WRC2 regulations, which will also qualify it for the Asia-Pacific Rally Championship (APRC).
The Proton Iriz R5 follows another Proton collaboration with Mellors Elliot Motorsport, the Satria S2000 rally car which in Intercontinental Rally Challenge (IRC), Super 2000 World Rally Championship (SWRC) and the APRC, which saw it win the drivers’, constructors’, and teams’ titles in 2011.

Looking to sell your car? Sell it with Carro.
Nanti bashers says ini article tipoo cuz they cant belip a P1 won APRC drivers’, constructors’, and teams’ titles…
smart Brits unlike abang2
Yup. Smart Brits knows diff between P1 & MEM.
A heavily modded Proton won 1 race. What so surprise? Proton is junk without modification, the problem is, many Proton still a junk after mod.
Like toyota msia cars oso?
A modded junk is faster than supposedly much better competitors.
Hmm, why does it sound like Millennium Falcon?
great (clap clap clap), can u help us to communicate to P1 engineer? we need the signal control to be located at right hand side. we as outsider assume it is simple as ABC.
U dun need to use signals in rally.
U Mean Geely Iriz? Congratulations to Geely. Great car
Development of Iriz is before Geely comes. Aiyo.. mau bash pun kasi bijak sikit.
Nope, MEM. Its says right there on the article: MEM P1 Iriz.
Fuuyoh Geely br sampai 1bulan dh champion..
Finally the first China car to enter global rally championship!
I believe that distinction goes to Haval.
Haval (Great Wall) is the first lah, they compete in Dakar Rally lagi meh.
Later on all Iriz owner can claim that their car is a Rally Car. haha
R5 is stand for what – Race, Rally, Research, R??? ,R???
+ Rebadge & Recycling
R for Rosm…
Race.Rally.Research.Rugi.Resell
Under the hood, the Iriz R5 packs a modified 4B11T engine from the Mitsubishi Evolution X… ( Now want to change my iriz this engine )
4B11T used cuz its easier mated to traverse AWD system (like in Evo).
Syoik sendiri this Iriz. Even after winning a race….the company still being sold to Cina company cheap cheap….
all you guys did is show your total lack of ignorance.. R5 is an FIA category of rally car.. there are R5 rally cars made by mitsubishi, hyundai, peugeot, ford, skoda… etc. and this car isn’t built by Proton.. its built by MEM, and independent british rally car builder.
Dun mind the bashers, bro. When they see P1, all brains throw out the window. Wait, do they even have brains in 1st place…?
but , the chassis? sure still proton right ? hehehehe. chassis also play important role
Iriz is the best
