Proton Perdana D-segment RV still has its selling point!

Proton Perdana is a Type D sedan, Proton's iconic sedan. The platform developed by Geely-Volvo will be used legally in future Proton models. The prototype car based on Perdana is the eighth-generation Accord, so it is actually a typical Japanese touring car in its essence. The suspension performance mainly tends to be comfortable and very Japanese.

After being re-adjusted by the original factory to meet the road conditions in China, Perdana's suspension system has done a good job in filtering shattering and high-speed stability. It has the style of a D-segment touring car, plus its covering and Comfortable seat design, it is definitely not an exaggeration to say that Perdana is a competent Cruiser! Even people who are very sensitive to the comfort of the back seat will definitely nod their heads after riding! The space performance is also very good.

There is also plenty of legroom. There is no pressure problem with the Fastback model. In addition, the 470L trunk space is large and wide enough to fully accommodate the luggage and other items of 4 adults. Family trips are definitely not a problem! Such a Japanese D-segment touring car inherits the high-quality assembly quality of the Japanese car and the very user-friendly interior design, plus the combination of the above four advantages, it will only sell for RM 134,395.12 (the 2.0L version is priced at RM 110,119.63), in fact, it can be said to be quite cost-effective.

Some people may say that the technology of this car is old and the equipment is not attractive enough (the most obvious in this respect is the lack of Keyless and Push Start systems), but considering the price, plus the safety aspect, it still has 4 Airbags and basic equipment such as ABS/EBD and ESC. In terms of such power and space performance, Perdana is actually quite worthwhile.

Don’t forget that this is a full-size D-segment motorhome with a displacement of 2.4L! The 2.4L version is equipped with a 2.4L i-VTEC naturally aspirated engine from Honda. It has a maximum horsepower of 178 hp and a peak torque of 222 Nm. It is paired with a 5-speed automatic transmission.

The tuning is based on the positioning of the touring car. The power performance of the engine is relatively linear. Some people may think that the starting performance is not very satisfactory, but for the editor, it is not bad; the characteristics of this engine are fully displayed when you get on the highway, and it is carried out within the legal speed. Cruising can be said to be very easy. For the editor, this group of power configuration is completely abundant in strength.
