It’s the new year for 2009, and seems like local car manufacturer, Proton has started their development for a new market, the MPV segment.The photos below reveal what seems like the upcoming new MPV car from Proton, which share almost the same exterior with Taiwanese Luxgen MPV.
The new Proton MPV are rumored to be equiped with a 1.6 CamPro engine, with the price range of not exceding RM75,000, excluding road tax and insurance. This will be fitted with 15″ rim as standard, with either manual and auto transmission.
Looking at a Toyota Avanza 1.5 (A) selling at RM 75,600, Proton needs to set a competitive pricing to compete with existing MPV manufacturers.
The speed cluster looks futuristic and sporty with its red colour background.
Center console looks pretty standard with minimum buttons. Radio player comes with red/orange theme which complements the speed cluster very well.
Steering has a strong Honda Civic design in it, and volume up/down, track fwd/rwd button are well within reach. A phone button were spotted also, this might suggest the car comes with bluetooth support?
Overall this car comes with a sporty look in terms of exterior and interior, until we have more pictures and the specs, we will be able to give you a better coverage on this.
