The Proton Persona just had its second facelift (known as MC2) that was launched last week. Being a 5-year-old model, it’s approaching the end of its lifecycle by conventional carmaker standard. Despite the continuous updates in exterior styling, the Proton Persona has an inherently disproportionate design that no amount of facelifts can fix. After all, it’s based on the Proton Iriz and it has to conform its limitations. Its lurchy CVT aside (though it claims to be further improved in the MC2),

The Proton CamPro engine, since its inception in 2004 in the Proton Gen.2, has the recognition of being the only Malaysian-developed engine to-date. That alone could have been a remarkable achievement for Proton, but there’s a catch – CamPro isn’t exactly known for its fuel consumption. Over the years, the CamPro engine received numerous updates and improvements, including the CamPro CPS in 2008, turbocharged CamPro CFE in 2011, and CamPro VVT in 2014 – all of which suffered from poor fuel consu

As we venture further into Q2 of 2021 with several launches already taken place earlier this year, let’s continue looking forwards to upcoming cars that are slated to be launched in Malaysia sometime in 2021. Do note that some of the cars mentioned are based on prediction, with varying levels of possibility. With that out of the way, let us crack on.

Earlier spyshots of the upcoming new 2021 Proton Iriz and its sedan sibling, the Proton Persona, often centered around the duo’s exterior and interior, with each spyshot revealing a bit more information. This time around, a spyshot depicting the front of the new Iriz Active in the dark seemingly confirms yet another new feature will be introduced on selected variants the duo – LED headlights. That said, according to our friends over at Funtasticko, LED headlights could be range-topping variant-o

Looks like the Proton Iriz and Proton Persona are set for yet another update as over the night, various spy shots of both cars testing on the roads started circulating social media. This is quite a surprise as both cars only just received an update in 2019. Based on the photos posted, it looks like the camouflaged cars were spotted around Maran, Pahang. We can’t see much from the photos but the Iriz looks set to come with major updates to the rear-end. Meanwhile, changes on the Persona looks lim

The Proton Persona is Proton’s B-segment sedan that is based on the Iriz hatchback. The model does have any direct rivals in the B-segment national car market. Here, we will take a closer look and see how much does it cost to maintain and insure the Persona over a 5-year period. Like its Campro-powered siblings, the Proton Persona requires an oil change at the 1,000-km mark, which costs RM 121.09. After the 1,000-km service, the Persona requires a service at every 10,000-km/6-month interval. For
