Proton Preve steering on other Proton cars

Proton Preve steering on other Proton cars, specifically my Proton Saga FLX! Since I bought the cheapest spec version, it came without the leather steering wheel, which gets slippery at times and feels rather uncomfortable. To get the original steering wrapped outside, I was quoted anywhere from RM350 to RM400! So instead, I got the Proton Preve leather steering wheel, at a fraction of the price.

Sorry to disappoint you but the cruise control and paddleshifters don't work! The stereo will work if wired to the media player though!

The steering only took a while to install, and it is plug and play on many other Proton cars such as the Proton Wira, Waja, Persona, and Gen-2.

Proton Preve CFE Dyno Chart! 159bhp / 232Nm torque

This is the new Proton Preve CFE's dyno chart, as tested by RS Dyno in Puchong. If I remember correctly, their dyno machine converts the on wheel figure to on crank. The figures claimed by Proton is 140bhp and 205 Nm of torque. The dyno tested figure seems to show otherwise. Perhaps this particular unit was extra power? 

Proton Preve Failure Again? Look inside!

Previously we covered the Proton Preve dashboard button quality failure, this time there appears to be some problem with the Proton Preve's tyres! Hit the jump for 1 more picture and a funny internet trending meme on this mishap!

Proton Preve: Possible Quality Issues? Switch fitment

Despite being touted as the global car, with international quality standards, this viral image of the recent Proton Preve test drive shows otherwise. The passenger key lock and other indicator located on the bevel of the centre console was seen dislocated and dangling inside the dashboard. This reminds me of the old Proton Wira aircond button, where it is quite common for the button itself to be pushed too far inside and left dangling in the dashboard.

FUUU! Quality issues again!?

Well this could be a rushed unit for the recent test drive and launch of the Proton Preve, hence the "rushed" quality. However, with the booking numbers rising, will Proton overlook certain quality control procedures and let history repeat itself? We will need the first batch of buyers to give comment on that!

Apart from that, the centre console does look quite well designed. Great job on that! For more information on the Proton Preve, head over to the official specification and price list!
