proton preve cvt problem

When it made its debut in 2012, the Proton Preve was the most affordable C-segment sedan on the market and the spec-sheet was rather impressive as well. So, is it worth your consideration as a used car? During its 8-year run, the Preve was updated twice. It also helped Proton reach numerous milestones such as achieving the brand's first 5-star rating at the Australasian New Car Assessment Programme (ANCAP). The Preve was also well-liked for its 1.6-litre CamPro CFE Turbo engine, Proton even cash

Proton Preve Proton Preve merupakan antara usaha Proton untuk bersaing dalam pasaran sedan segmen C. Jenama Jepun yang selama ini mendominasi pasaran tersebut sedikit terkesan dengan penawaran Proton Preve iaitu sedan segmen C paling murah dalam zamannya. Hadir dengan pilihan enjin CamPro CFE Turbo melalui Proton Preve 1.6 CFE Turbo, model ini agak diminati golongan yang menggemari kelajuan. Hal ini diperkuatkan lagi dengan kehadiran kereta konsep Proton Preve R3 seiring warisan sukan permotoran

Previously, when we reported on the mind-boggling Proton Exora/ Mitsubishi Triton mesh up, we thought we’ve seen it all. But clearly, most of us have forgotten that Malaysia also has a one-off Proton Preve Ute on our roads. The Proton Preve Ute is a one-off custom project that a private owner commissioned Bufori, a company specialising in hand-built vehicles, to build. Based on our research, the Preve Ute arrived at Bufori’s workshop as a standard 4-door Proton Preve sedan but left the doors a 2

Proton had always been known for its saloon cars that were popular with Malaysian families. The Proton Saga, Wira, Waja, Perdana, and Preve are some to name. The most ambitious of them all would have been the Proton Preve, claimed as Proton’s first global car. Under the Proton-Geely partnership, several future model names have been registered. Including the X50 and X70, several other names have been registered too like the C50 and S50. The C50 is probably reserved for a hatchback model while the

Proton一直以其轿车而闻名，它们深受马来西亚家庭用户的欢迎，像Proton Saga、Wira、Waja、Perdana和Preve等都是很好的例子。而在这些轿车中，野心最大的当属Proton Preve了，它被称为Proton的首款全球车型。 而在Proton和吉利合作之后，已经有好几款未来的车型注册了商标。除了X50和X70之外，还有其它的名字也被注册了，其中就包括C50和S50。C50很可能会用到掀背车型上，而S50则可能是为轿车车型准备的。 在几乎将每一款吉利车型都进行Proton化渲染之后，Theophilus Chin又决定畅想一下新一代挂着“Proton S50”名号的Proton Preve / Proton Waja。我们必须承认，它看起来和吉利缤瑞十分相似。 Proton Waja和Proton Preve这两款车曾经都是Proton寄予了厚望的C级轿车，但最终它们都在没有后继者的情况下停产了。鉴于S50这个名字已经注册了商标，Proton推出新的C级轿车或许将会成为现实。 这张假想图实际上是基于Ford Focus轿车版渲染的，而车头则来源于Proton X5

It has been 5 years since Proton has discontinued sales of the Proton Inspira, but demand for the car has yet to wane and finding a good used unit is like looking for a needle in the haystack. But for RM 20,000, should you still get a used Proton Inspira or should you just opt for the Inspira’s donor car, the Mitsubishi Lancer instead? The Proton Inspira has always been an interesting product. It came years after Proton has proudly moved on from just rebadging Mitsubishi vehicles and started pro

A couple of years ago, Proton registered several trademarks, including one curiously-named S50, fueling speculations that a Proton Preve replacement model based on the Geely Binrui could happen. The S designation would be logical for Proton to rename their next-generation sedans, as Proton did utilize the S16 name for the Saga BLM in Australia. Although the C-segment sedan market is shrinking, many government fleets still require a C-segment sedan – the police force have resorted to the Honda Ci

The Proton Persona might be one of the most exciting-handling cars on a budget. No, I’m serious and this is coming from someone who has very mixed feelings on the Exora. The Persona might be one of those cars that would look great as a sleeper and it even comes with a manual, if you’re the sort who prefers a traditional, engaging drive at the expense of creature comforts. But enough reminiscing over the beauty (and sometimes left leg aching pain) of a manual, most people these days would rather

Although Proton has introduced two SUVs to the market (X50 & X70), interest for a sedan Proton still remains high. Thus, the speculation of an upcoming Proton S50 intrigued many of us.

The benefits of CVT have been repeated many and many times over – simple design, better fuel efficiency, smooth gear shifts, and infinite gear ratios. So much so, that city cars by Nissan, Honda, and Toyota mainly use CVTs. Common fears regarding CVT are overheating CVTs and snapped CVT belts. But how much truth is there to these fears? 1.

While there might be no plans for a successor to the Proton Suprima S soon, photo chopper Theophilus Chin has decided to use the Proton X50’s front end to imagine one. While Theophilus has called it the Proton H50, the result is very reminiscent of the Proton Suprima S. Instead of looking like a totally new car, the rendering looks like a well-done evolution of the turbocharged hatchback.
