CAMPRO was something that was like Mivec, Vtec, VVT-i, Vanos,
Cvvt, ...... but according to Proton, Gen2 engine has the ability
to add-on the Campro but the engine DOES NOT comes with CAMPRO. To
be more amuse is that, proton is not making campro then who the
h*ll gonna make it?
Proton car interior are more nicer than Korean car as it was mor of
Jap design but the Quality they use is crap. See closer and you
will see all those lining was not properly cut. And lots of common
problem issue. If you thinking to get a car for long term needs,
dont chose Proton. If you care about short term and cheap cost,
then proton is the choice. And proton fuel comsumption sucks. Even
those 1.6 or 1.8 Jap car like Altis, Civic are more fuel efficient
than it.
Lots of those figure was claim and was/will never reach on the
normal road use. I wonder those figure was from some sort of
testing done close door inhouse or what?
Does it back look like Kia?
