Meh, drive it like cvt not regular at la..
I stopped looking down on this car when my father brought one home. And since that moment i’m impressed with the car until today. The standard spec is very value for money since mechanically the personas are same throughout the range.
Mine is Persona executive. For 1 year 2 months ownership, the sequek at dashboard and side door is there. Nothing I can do as national car always like this 😑. But I love the handling experience. Its just something there that makes me feel comfortable and easy on the road. Engine, CVT is ok. Power is there. the sluggish cvt just need time to get used to it. Overall i give 7/10 for this car. Mostly because value for money
When Persona came out in 2015. I compared it with my sister's city. Both use cvt gears. City has vsc, but persona is better, persona has vsc, traction control and hill hold assist. Persona's Back seat is longer buy one inch, using mum's tape. And the body of persona is made of high tensile steel just like the new civic. Yes, value for money. Cheers
Yes, you are correct, persona cvt came out in 2016. My sister bought city cvt in 2015. Could have bought the persona, a 20k difference? Persona has better ride and handling too.
As a persona premium cvt owner what I can say is that persona cvt premium is better than honda city gm6 pre facelift spec S and E but equivalent to spec V. Yes persona is value for money because the price difference is more than rm30k if you compare between persona cvt premium and honda city v spec gm6 pre-fl.
Overall at this price it's a good buy .My gripes: after 6mths usage dashboard squeaks (same like my 2016 iriz.both bought new), cvt jerky at crawling jams.
@@thiamchoywong465 Bear with me, but some service centers are really not good. Find other service center that can serve you better. This problem generally exists with every brand.
Regarding the rear seat head rest, I think the reason for it to be non adjustable aside from cutting cost is because Persona is targeted at small family, which as you guys expected, it will be mostly kids sitting at the back. It's good to have but for me it's not a deal breaker. The major annoyances for me is the exclusion of metallic trim on the interior and no foldable seat for standard variant. I'm not sure if the cost cutting here is really necessary. *gotta complain about standard variant since my 3 pedal Persona only available in this basic package
@@dineshdinesh2001 no regret. And I do travel daily in the cities. The fuel consumption is on the high side compared to other cars in the same segment but since I pay low price for the car n I got to drive a manual, it doesn't really matter. And paying low for monthly means I have extra money to spend on upgrading the car. Suspension has been replaced with Ftuned CLS for more aggressive stance while maintaining comfort. Wheels upgraded to 16" with quality tires (Goodyear assurance). Head unit upgraded to Sony with Apple Car play support. So if you like to modify your car, getting standard manual is a good option.
Zamir Yusof great bro , thanks for updating as there is very less manual persona drivers to ask for their inputs and when I go around proton centres in Penang the sales agents keeps getting shocked when I ask for manual unit, they don’t have any manual unit for test drive and the worse part they keep demotivating me from getting the manual version
@@dineshdinesh2001 it's most probably the manual variant only built if there is order from showroom, no ready stock unlike auto standard variant. They probably ask you to get other variant which they already have stock in hand.
The cvt fluid used by proton on this punch cvt is mineral oil only. You may try to change it by using fully sync cvt fluid brand like comma, it will make big differences, less cvt noise and lower temperature, can last for linger mileage and smoother driving too.
love this dugong..owned the executive model as i didn't like the "Hi Proton" infotainment on Premium model as its pretty much a very basic version of what it can actually do compare to those in X50 & X70 & i don't think that two tone 15" rim is a necessity as well as i can change to a better 16" rim in the future..the only thing that i do feel the miss in the executive model is airbag where i only have 2 instead of 6 in premium model the best about this new facelift is that how they remake the looks at the rear bumper to make all the "this bumper doesn't look right" feeling on previous model gone just like that..the rim change is also one of the best decision made by Proton..now the side profile didn't look too weird anymore..but i think they can't do much on the front looks although the DRL positioning is smart..but still acceptable nonetheless..for the car with the price tag, can't complaint much & yeah, i dont care about front fog light..& i don't even know if i do need a rear fog light either although my persona have it..but DRL looks cool
why they remove the headlight levelling? I love using those adjuster especially in highway road.. and on very dark road without cars, you will find it very beneficial
Driver seat is big and comfortable for a 6ft tall person 😊 Couple of things I didn't like: it doesn't have automatic central door lock. Have to manually press the button to lock all doors. The updated media player, Joox, requires you to register for an account and to scan the QR code to play. Sometimes, it's not a 1 off scan. I'd have to rescan again from time to time.

nothing to talk about value or not, coz this is the cheapest B segment sedan in Malaysia... other options like City or Vios cost extra rm20k more... unless the City or Vios price different by rm5k to rm8k... then we will see alot of City and Vios on the road.. if u want a budget B segment sedan, this is the only choice... take it or leave it... : D

Yup.. For that amount, its a great value... As a 2nd car, id actually get the Iriz though.. Styling very catchy and unique...
Yeah, the Iriz drives better too ✌️
Good value car. Non adjustable headrest at the back is deal breaker.
Not really. It's comfortable for slouching and snoozing at the back for me at least. 😊
Yes if you slouch, it’s more comfortable with these small headrests
It's a bit of a deal-breaker, small compromises to keep the price of the car down

Can the service centre rectify the dashboard squeaks?
Proton SC is bad and not professional at all.

Hi Adrian! What are the better size of rims & tyres for a Persona and also a new Saga? Your recommendations would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
Follow.
Answering on behalf, as Persona owner:
15" with 195/55 tire
16" with 195/50 tire
Need to make sure the wheel fit the fender as well. Some wheels have very negative offset (the lip is further from the hub) so it's easy to hit the fender when going over bumps. Avoid 205 width tire as it will make the car slightly lazy to turn.
If possible get hold of 195/55 PS3s, else Proxes TR1s. 15 is ideal but if really needed then 16s with 195 tyre size.
185/55 R15 but with better tyre brands or 195/50 R15 but you sacrifice abit of comfort

Sedan is not really my first choice...after all, how often do you fill the boot in the back?

Any recommendation for tyres? Xnnot tahan silverstone... so noisy and skids easily on wet roads
goodyear/Continental will do. it reduces the noise and high grip perf.

Persona. It has better space, better power. At least for me as a family man with 2 kids. You will appreciate any sedan with boot. Myvi is good as a city car or 2nd car
I got persona and my younger brother got myvi... My older bro drive both, and he prefer persona
Persona: 1.6L engine, bigger boot space, better highway stability, and cruising performance
Myvi AV: ADAS, better fuel economy, easier to park
what do you think of the goodyear assurance? some persona came with that set of tires
Way better than Silverstones... But I'm changing mine to Continentals CC6 soon
I think rear seat persona not spacious if it shares the same iriz platform
Actually more space than city. Try using a measurement tape. My dad did that.
Yeap, not as spacious. But the cut out in the front seats helps to free up some legroom

I live for tennis ball measuring unit
This car is very good for its price, but ugly.
Ugly is an understatement, they really should fire whoever design it.
@@MuizzAzhar93 hahaha, have you seen the Mercedes-Benz B-Class?
WapCar the battle of the toads 😭
I think it's slowly evolve like honda city steam iron 😂
silverstone tyres are rubbish. almost impossible to balance, swells and susceptible to aqua planing
😶
The Persona rides on Goodyear now.
@@duanetersan1975 really?
@@duanetersan1975 only for premium spec
It's a great value for money car but Proton's QC lets it down (power window, gear shift LED, dashboard squeks, etc...)
So I skipped this in my consideration
now i know gear shift LED is a known issue for this. haha. after 6 months owning have this issue already
sorry, but what is gear shift LED.
@@MrIzzanie the LED light inside the gear letter "P,R,N,D,3,2" that one
@@Alfred19950503 Haha that LED gear shifters....
8.4L/100km?? My estima can do better
2.4L?
Yup.. very shocking 😱
@@khairunsyazwin Toyota power 😶
my persona 5.2L/100km. Depends on your leg😉
@@mohammadzulhaffiz4276 i guess 5.2L is only calculation from highway with constantly ~100kmh . Overall cumm data highway+ city drive, the best i can do for my persona is only 7.2~L/100km
The car is good. I just don't like the characteristics of the cvt.
How about manual?
Only comes in the Standard spec.
western people seeing the channel name WAPcar like: (•_•)
Proton give atlas as3800 now. Instead of silverstone kLoser.
If there's a stronger word for ugly, that would fit perfectly with this Persona. Man the design suck balls.
This facelift is a bit better laaa
@@WapCar haha yes. but still a polarising look la. It's so unnecessary bloated.
