Proton MPV... will be launch 2009...

Dapat some picture of Proton MPV daripada email yang dihantar oleh member aku. Proton MPV ini dijangka akan berada di pasaran pada tahun depan, 2009. So, boleh la tengok cam ne rupanya... kot2 ade yang berminat nak beli. Bagi aku,design ok la.... lebeh kurang macam Naza Citra, Toyota Avanza skit. Ade member aku cakap macam Honda Stream... hahahaha... (ade ke..?? boleh la skit2 kot.. hehehe...). Agak2 nye ape name model untuk Proton MPV ni...?? Tak kisah la ape pon namenye..., kalau dah tengok & rase berminat nak beli..., tunggu la tahun depan ye....



Proton MPV first batch to roll out mid-Sept 2008.

The Proton MPV will begin on-road testing from the 12th of September2008 onwards, so we'll be able to spot it on our local roads and hopefully get some nice clear photos possibly from mid-September onwards. It will be launched to the public in March 2009.

Proton sources have confirmed that the Proton MPV will initially come with the 125 horsepower Campro CPS found in the highline GEN2 CPS facelift. The car will ride on 15 inch wheels which should be easy on the fuel consumption as well as tyre change bills as smaller tyres are cheaper.

125hp is far from sprinty on a heavy vehicle especially with all 7 seats occupied, but it is still more powerful than the 1.3, 1.5 and 1.6 liter engines that almost all B-segment Japanese MPVs have to make do with.

A turbocharged Campro engine is said to be in the works but according to inside sources if any other engine options other than the CPS engine are to be available for the Proton MPV, next in line is more likely to be a turbodiesel engine. In fact, Proton may have played a part in(successfully) lobbying for the recent drop of diesel road tax rates to the same level as petrol road tax rates.
