It was no secret that Proton will release their first and brand new MPV sometime in March or April next year. Since then, we have seen many so called real photo of this MPV. No one has actually confirmed the design etc. However, since last months, many blogs/websites has posted spy shot of this MPV taken during their road testing all over Malaysia. Internal people said that more than 30 units has been produced for testing purposes and as usual this unit will be on camouflage.

From the photo, many will agreed that this MPV’s design is not bad at all. Given right price, we believe that it will be another success for Proton. However, what remains mystery is of course on the powertrain. Will it be powered by 1.6 CPS campro or what ? Again, Proton is expected to use whatever engine that they have for the time being until their very first Turbo Charged Campro ready for production which is expected in 2010.

What we heard before is Proton uses Toyota Wish as a benchmarking for their MPV. What we hope that the benchmarking shall not limited to the design, size etc, but what important is on the quality, right & handling, performance and also fuel consumption. Looking at the recent launched Saga BLM, you might heard in other blogs, that its consume high fuel even though on standard factory setting without any mod. This could be the major challenge for Proton actually …

The photos of Spyshots taken from various websites ….

Anyway my wish list for this new MPV :

What do you think ?
