So I drove the Myvi's competitor. To be fair, the supplier for the vanity mirror and visors should be taking the blame.

My car doesn’t have a problem with free play steering like this unit. Seems like Proton still having with inconsistent QC issue. I had experience built quality as my RH Roof Molding was not well attached to the car. I already get replacement via warranty. Proton can come out with a good product, but still they can’t get rid of QC problems. Btw, I did enjoy watching your car review video. 👍🏻👍🏻
More national car Bobby, so happy when I see this video
Gavin Tai i’m so happy when chinese love national car
Actually many of us Chinese still love Proton, I myself had a Waja (hand-me-down from my mum) for my first car and I bought the Iriz as my 2nd car.
I couldn't believe my eyes that Bobby is reviewing a proton.
I never reject the idea of reviewing a national car. Just that they didn't quite like it when both of them were celebrating the Bezza and Persona's arrival like Jesus reborn or something back then and I was quite vocal about their ridiculous over-celebration of what are actually econoboxes while Hyundai and Kia progressed to making 7-series challengers.
True that. If Honda City/Jazz/Vios were to sell at the same price range as our myvi/iriz/persona, honestly, i dont think our national will even have any ground to stand against them.
Exactly. In fact, based on number of cars sold per year vs factory, man power, supplier costs, I wouldn't be surprised that Proton's per car costs more than Toyota's Camry to produce. In fact, if Perodua is an independent company, making a car like Myvi and attempting to sell it at market price would meant that Perodua will not be profitable as well. Both our car makers have unrealistic production numbers that are impossible to sustain if they are independent. To be a profitable car maker in a market that competes with big brands and to be able to make cars that fulfil emission standards across the globe and to have a healthy service network etc, 250,000 cars for mass market car brands is a must to hit - bare minimum.
I think he’s jealous coz Kon got a viewer spike after posting the Myvi video !! 😂😂😂
Proton's cheque must have finally cleared.
Hey Bobby, great review. I'm an owner of pre-facelift Iriz Executive 1.6 myself. Someone asked me yesterday if I regretted buying the car, can't say I do, but can't say I'm super happy with it. Some hit and miss with the car.
The pros :
1) Superb suspension and handling for this segment
2) Very nice seats (ya and the rear is full length bench, which I like)
3) Decent NVH
The cons:
1) Finishing quality (The horrendous aircond dials...terrible)
2) Build quality (dashboard rattling noise 6 months into owning, and no solution from Proton yet)
3) Really lembap drivetrain (I heard it was improved in the version you drove)
4) Non user friendly radio head unit & terrible sound quality (my song loudness goes up when there's no bass, and down when bass kicks in...)
But all in all, the car is quite fun to drive. Btw, the centre rear seatbelt is retractable and be kept on the roof if not needed. I find that ok.
will5923 ya the car is very2 fun to drive. But some of the material issue a bit let down. But I won't say I'm regret with it but I'm happy with it. Just if only Proton can improve more on the material
Hi I owned a 2015 Iriz. You can fix the dashboard rattling by sending your car to proton SC and request for IP kit installation. They will usually require you to leave the car for about 3 days but in my case the installation was done by the end of the day that I sent my car. The rattling sound is gone now!
Oh that's great info. Btw I tested my iriz. No free play issue for steering. Rather responsive
@@Michael-kz5ncwhat is IP kit installation? Some kind of soundproofing technology?
Goddamit Bobby, im trying to study for exam and here you are keep on uploading!
Same here
Peter Ambrose it's just an exam bro.. nway gudluck man😂😂
crysisownz university exam
Cancel the exam. Problem solved.
Proton as a whole is a good car just that it was let down by QA/QC issue.
For long distance i prefer to drive the IRIZ at least its much more stable and doesn't feel melayang like a Myvi
Amer asyraf Sheikh amer Yes, that's true bcoz i did drive the Iriz from Shah Alam to Machang via LPT2 and the total travel time is 12 hours (balik kampung raya). The Iriz was really comfort & stable with good ride & handling. Good job Proton.
Major different between iriz and myvi are iriz have better and strong chasis-body because of Hpf, many testimonies of survivor from car crashes
Hi Bobby, hope you can review a Preve or Suprima S. You'll love the handling
Woah!!! Finally a proper proton review from Bobby!!
So detailed review. Truly a review. Thanks. I drive bmws and am tired of how heavy and non hoonable they are compared to a cheaper daily ( always worried to take care of any issues).
But I miss the iriz. It's light, it was fun. And when I drove the new myvi I felt disconnected from the road. They myvi is a better car for 90 percent of daily drivers but I'm going iriz because it's a better base for tuning and engine swap hopefully later.
Hi Bobby. Appreciate you u doing review for proton cars. Hope you can do for preve or persona. Well done Bobby....
Design ergonomics is something Proton can ultimately do better, especially with the positioning of the AV screen, the door handle angles etc. Practicality wise, Iriz loses a lot to the Myvi, and until Proton rectifies this, it's always going to an uphill climb to reach Myvi's sales numbers. Agree that the Iriz can be made a bit more spacious to cater for the usual Malaysian and even South East Asian family requirements. Well, let's hope Proton's future is better under Geely. Anyway, hope you do more local car reviews in the future - thanks Bobby.
Ahmad Iskandar myvi got his practicality by shortening the seat bench,use thin plastics like the axia?
Agreed on how the door cards were designed. I wish Iriz gets the same level of equipment as the new Persona, this new refined version actually has some features removed like the auto windows for the driver. and no power folding mirrors, and no auto headlights. And 1.6 no more manual :(
That's why the Persona sells better, not to mention the huge boot space. A facelift is planned for the Persona next year and hopefully they'll add in more features.
Persona doesn’t have the auto up drivers side window either
Bobby, what do you think of the Suprima S? Is it a good car to get, in terms of ride, handling and performance? Compared to the likes of Honda City, Mazda 2, VW Polo/Vento? Even though it's a C-segment hatcback, I'm comparing it to B-segment non-nationals due to the similar price levels.
Proton .bobby is driving your car..hope you"ll continue to review local cars in future.tq bobby
I think that steering freeplay isn't normal. Not sure if my comparison if right or not, but I'm driving the new Persona, which shares the same platform and drivetrain, and my steering doesn't have such freeplay.
Thanks for the feedback!
There are no more lap belt allowed for middle seat. Must be 3 points seat belt. Hence, the position at the roof. Otherwise, it would only be a 4 seater instead of 5. NCAP requirement?
Typical motorhead. Stopped in a middle of conversation to check out a car then double checking its originality by its disc brake size. I Always do that too😂
Thanks bobby for the this video because i really² like a proton iriz! ❤️ One day maybe,saya ingin memilikinya!
this guy is super positive and knowledgeable, plus he gave the Viva a glowing review. subscribed. ever consider reviewing a Wira?
Yeah why not? Thanks for the sub!
Im a big guy...when I seat in Iriz...I dont feel like small car or feeling sempit...this car also have highest safety rating ...Proton must do something about their sales team...
my iriz doesnt have that vanity mirror problem or that free play the steering wheel has
Bobby, very good insights on the air con dials... cheap quality relative to their design and prominence on the dashboard center stack. That's good auto journalism! 👍
hello a question, can you actually make/tuned a cvt transmission to be more quiet generally for all cvt gb (especially punch cvt) or each cvt has their own "characteristic sound"? or the only way to make the whole car quieter is by lets say more insulator, soundproof foam etc and as for proton they did a 3 point engine mounting and probably more insulator.. would like to know the answer thanks!
the cvt and engine moan ........from a saga flx user, it feels like home.
Hi Bobby, FYI my pre-fl Iriz 1.3 doesn't have that steering free play issue as well. Nice review btw!
That Chinese accent at 12:36😂😂 and the face-palm too lmaooooo
Samuel Tan what did he say?? Translation pls...tq
It basically translates to "this isn't intentional, this was done last time"
Hahahaha... thanks man
No prob ahaha
Bobby do you intend to test the new Kia Picanto soon? The size might be small but for the features in its pirce range I think it's worth giving credit
If I'm not mistaken the 2014 pre facelift full leather seats are from Johnson Controls as I remember the sticker when removing out the plastics. Not sure whether it's the same for this Martini design.
Bobby compared polo and iriz?
Thank you for conducting the review in English
Bobby I'm using Iriz Executive 1.6 i don't have any issue with the steering. Maybe something wrong with the model
Thanks for the feedback. So yours doesn't have the free play right?
Bobby Ang ya no free play... Quite shock to see that happened in the Iriz u drive.
I bet your Iriz didn’t have a detachable vanity mirror either right 😂
dy246 no2 its already been 3years no problem on that even my mum used it Daily lol
Bobby can u review the material such as door cards, dashboard quality plastic compare to the Myvi? Coz I've been in the new myvi the plastic feels cheaper like the one in axia use... Door card is thin as hell
Finally !! Great review
It depends on what you like perhaps. As much as the MyVi is good i absolutely hated the way it drove. And the driving position plus the seats. I have back issues, hence the MyVi will still not be my choice. Personal preference in the end.
bobby can you review Peugeot 2008 1.2 puretech i am about to buy this car
Please Review AXIA advance since not many review on the net
Bobby, the updated Iriz lost a few features (nomore auto up and down, nomore autoflip, nomore auto light)
Alot of of ppl already judged the car by looking at the badge. How pathetic
Weison TAn I wish perodua made this car.. Not proton
At last the video that im waiting for.
One important question to you bobby, will u choose iriz over myvi?
Yes. I will. I will buy a Fiesta over a Prius C too. Solely because of how they drive. The Myvi is about 5 million times better built and spacious and handsome. But the Iriz's handling appeals to me. I would say anyone who wanted a Jazz can go Myvi. It's 95% there. The Iriz isnt as practical but a real hoon to drive.
finally on proton car bobby... appreciate
Hi Bobby...Need your help to review for Kia Rio 2018...
thank you for the fair review. :)
Ive rent a iriz before for 1 month because i was accident before.. i must said, iriz indeed was a good car but i felt quite the plastic in steering doesn't fit well, and the seat and dashboard quite in weird position.. no offense, im quite short person, about 162cm , i guess someone over 167 will be comfort enough
Wow , pigs are flying I think , Bobby finally review a proton car. How about reviewing an older car such as the Naza Forte 1.6/2.0? Which was one of the best bang for buck car out there when compared to what was offered at that time with Honda/Toyota , interested to hear your insights about the car.
HAHNN I thought Bobby already review forte during his wheels weekly days
I was running Live Life Drive that time (previously known as Wheels Weekly) and I picked the Kia Forte as our Car of The Year that time.
Bobby Ang yup, the forte and 308 if im not mistaken..
Is there any video that I should know about? Tried to find but couldn't find it.
Wheels weekly was in 2008. RUclips was 2 years old that time. Facebook doesnt exist in malaysia yet. Nokia was holding 70% world mobile phone market share. Apple just launched iphone without 3G connection. And everyone buys Personal computers.
Hi Bobby ,can you review Mazda 2 ? Thankyou
next review proton perdana 2.4 the black one..proton preve new one
Hope you could try the new saga
Is the drive experience and the built quality are same as Persona??
Charles Tang Iriz has better handling, firmer suspension. The rest are pretty much the same since they share the same platform
what spec u testing? highest spec? hows the FC?
i keep rewinding 19:30...teary eyes...
Do a review on the renault Fluence 2018
Satria Neo next bobby
Proton should add some horsepower to this. Make this their version of the Ford Focus
You hope proton can build a car with interior quality like Porsche, and the x70 almost does it
X70 is a Geely CBU for now.
Please do a polo 1.6 review bobby 🙏
So surprise here haha 😂😂 btw very great review 😊😊
two more airbags was locatied at your side i guess...
OMG I love it when Bobby says “you’re not an M5 are ya?” HAHAHAHAHA oh and that he tried to fix that passenger mirror but failed 😂😂😂😂😂
I lost it when the vanity mirror fell off 😂
Good review on local make car.
so for u...new Iriz or new Myvi?? 😂
whats the interiors, exteriors, driving experiences differences among both?
jackchew0511 in my opinion, the new iriz is better than the new myvi
From my experience owning a 2015 iriz and have test driven both facelifted Iriz and new Myvi, here's my honest verdict :
Cabin design/quality:Myvi
Interior space/practicality:Myvi
Fuel consumption :Myvi
Safety: Both (5 stars Ancap)
Features: Myvi(ASA, touch n go reader)
Powertrain: Myvi
NVH:Iriz
Handling:Iriz
High speed stability :Iriz
Acceleration/Power delivery: Iriz
Overall, if you enjoy/like driving, go with Iriz. If Fuel consumption is of your greatest concern, just get the Myvi
i LOLed at 11:43. Anyway, yes the steering free play and slow rack is a bit of a let down. But I love the seats, very comfy.
suprisingly Bobby don't complain/comment on the left hand side signal stick.... there are saga flx and myvi first gen at my home...
feels quite weird tho, sometimes drive myvi too long then switch to saga will turn on the wiper stick at right hand side haha
anyway hope to see more of review soon~
Hello Guys Those who complain never driven European car b4?
Most probably he is used to it, most conti makes have their signal stalk on the left
hi guys, to be honest the car so far i get to drive are Saga BLM, FLX and Myvi only...
you might have a point where he used to it haha ..
just curious why Proton want to put the signal stick in left handside , different with myvi
I heard a speculation a while back, after buying lotus, proton wanted to emulate the conti makes, but of course........
Proton is not the only asian car maker to put the stalk on the left btw, Kia also have theirs on the left, but granted Kia is selling quite well in Europe
😧😧😧😥😥😥😤😤😤
Gosh...Martini Racing stripes on the seats
Earlier Iriz(s) have terrible throttle response
jeremy there is an update to the cvt ecu the throttle response of prefacelifted Iriz should be almost identical to the new iriz minus the soundproofing. I own a 2015 Iriz btw
My new persona steering also have this weird feeling. If u know car, u will know it feeling no good. Previously i drive wira, old myvi and now city, all of this car steering no this weird feeling.
And gearbox sound loud, i surprise u say myvi engine even louder. For me persona is damn loud.
I really hate protons gearbox. You have to put a bit of energy to change gears. My dads old toyota corolla feels really good when changing gears.
sebastian primus Aisin gearbox is the best. That y today volvo used it in their new model. Less maintenance but of course we cant compare to proton cause alot of politics inside ☺
Waiting for the Lamborghini Urus video...
Like my height which is 186cm, I don't have leg space at the back.
Parruen Rao buy a larger car then. It’s a small B segment hatch
dy246 I can afford what I can.
dy246 by the way, I got the new Myvi.
Most Malaysians are 5’7”-5’8” ish, you’re the exception.
dy246 yeah.. genetic 😂
hahah this is very funny thumbs up for the best review!
The CVT whine when you accelerating from a road bump sounds super annoying
Buy a manual 1.6 iriz finish the cheapest manual hot hatch
12:12 visor drop off! Classic! Laugh die me :)
My sister bought the Iriz when it was new.It is a nice car quite comfy n what not but in terms of quality control really bad.Within a year the transmission refused to engage n sent back for warranty leaks from the roof 3x n still unresolved. SC not really helpful.However our Preve Turbo is quite nice n problem free since 2014 with the exception of a noisy cvt whine at high speed .
My gawd the visor mirror
That middle seatbelt is terrible.
11:40 Geely: Bobby, that's not our works...
When he opened the passenger vanity mirror 😂😂
Geely official would say "这个不是故意的，这个是以前做的！" Hahahahaha
Visor mirror falls off? Really?!? Omg the review should just stop right there 🙈 .. a simple plastic piece like that, really makes me wonder about more important mechanical and electrical components.
I mean, it's not a good look for Proton but I'm certain this is just a surface issue that does not necessarily extend to electrical or powertrain components nor does it affect a number of other Iriz cars of the same batch.
Cannot compare that to mechanicals, the visors are supplied by shitty suppliers. :p
Proton is pretty much a crap company these days. But the Iriz is probably the only new Proton car I would own.
you have to understand what is turbo. you cant drive it in front traffic lights and make noise. lets drive a turbo charge in highway.
i will buy iriz compare to new myvi. iriz has better passive and active safety then new myvi. i will never recommend new myvi. but the best car under 50k is new KIA PICANTO
not re-noult, it is ray-no
Jialat la this time.. Because of you.. Proton sales drop further after this.. Just because of the small mirror defects.. Hahaha..
THe cvt is just crap. Most CVT cars are damn quiet and seamless on the go. Proton has made the impossible possible.
Dasd Da Their improved version already as good
The gear is damn bad... A big let down... But overall my persona is satisfying me well..
The truth about proton is they don't have experts in power train yet.
why dont you review a bezza ? lol
did you just say 不是 GT3 RS after speaking in chinese at 12:43 😂
wow the test car confirm kena abuse by previous test driver
A simple fixture like vanity mirror can fall off so easily, I shudder to even think of those parts from the engine compartment....
The powertrain is fairly reliable in the Iriz, unlike the CFE turbo so I won't worry about it too much. And besides, there was a photo on FB where a brand new first batch Myvi had the USB charge port broken off after only a couple uses. So really, this is just a freak occurrence rather than a widespread concern.
90% owner their vanity mirror doesn't fall off...so Bobby is unlucky
If Proton can copy the interior space of Jazz, many M'sian will have bought it. Is it that hard to copy interior space?? They can just bought a Jazz & measure the damned thing until the cow come home....Imagine Iriz with Jazz luggage area! Pity...they just went & copied the old Myvi...wasted time & $$$$
the iriz is designed to have a long wheelbase but more focused to have a really short rear overhang so they can make the car's handling better.Japanese are always known for clever interior pacakaging,something which even european cant achieve and they tend to being clever in interior colour scheme,to gives the interior less shadow and gives the impression of spaciousness even it is as small as Axia
@@tuahfilms I thought short wheelbase gives better handling while long wheelbase for high speed stability? Hence why the super agile Lotus Elise is so short?
nice
11:15 M5 badged normal 5, when i see them, i will always say "nope nope nope you fake shit"
Bobby reviewing Proton??...But...April Fools still days away....
@12:33 Sums up the whole review
at 12:39 lol "proton proton..."
Fking great review
7:16, hey, that's my neighbour car. He lost his Honda Civic for 2 weeks.
