Proton Persona Facelift -Elegance (Update)

Hi dude..see my last post at Subang Perdana Proton Showroom..

http://keratongfc.blogspot.com/2010/04/proton-persona-facelift-elegance.html

Since the sales did not unlock the door for me, i went to Shah Alam showroom with my family. Got 2 version there, M-Line with chiffon green and B-Line with Bronze Garnet colour. Not much different compere to the previous persona version. Only exterior and interior upgrade. The engine still powered by the familiar 1.6-litre Campro IAFM engine with 110 bhp at 6,500 rpm and 148 Nm of torque from 4000 rpm.

i have been informed by the sales person, this Persona Elegance comes with a new 32 bit ECU instead of 16 bit on previous version. Hm, of course 32 bit ECU has more capabilities compared to 16 bit. This info remind me to my Final Year Project..i`m using 8 bit converter ADC only.hehe....Generally, 32 bit ECU will capable of more inputs, meaning you can configure more parameters. The 1st 32 bit ECU was fit into Exora.

We are really enjoy on this visit because the test drive unit is available there. Before that, i enjoy snapping some photo..hehe..




















































see the door trim and panel, not much improvement there. But i`m impress at the new seat design. The black colour make the seat look sporty and fierce. Normally, designer will blend the black with red colour. But proton use black colour and white colour. Looks good..!






























From rear seat, some improvement at the backrest. Make the seat more ergonomic and offer better comfort.















Next.. boot.Same as previous version. Persona have very large space with 430 litters, the biggest boot compare to others proton model. But this time, it come with black tray; 2nd model fit with this tray after Saga BLM.















Not complete if we did not see the engine bay. As i said before, not much different on the engine. But, i`m surprise to see the radiator. Its come with 2 fan. Hm, better protecting from overheating..

















Erm...Complete one cycle. Time to test drive. hehe...1st, see the meter panel. Reinvented design blending with white LED colour. Nice..














The radio come with USB port. yummy...compare to previous version, the radio did not have USB port. But, i`m a bit regret because it did not fit with blue tooth device. why????

















During the test drive, i feel the soundproofing, sound system, air conditioner, suspension and handling are good. This car is the best choice for family. For me? i got no money laah...arghhhh...Dreams Come True??? ohhhhhh...God
