Let's just put it this way: the 2022 Avanza needs the FWD layout and CVT to stay relevant, and to stay at the

The Proton CamPro engine, since its inception in 2004 in the Proton Gen.2, has the recognition of being the only Malaysian-developed engine to-date. That alone could have been a remarkable achievement for Proton, but there’s a catch – CamPro isn’t exactly known for its fuel consumption.
