Umar Ramzan
1.6 Premium CVT (2022)
Bought new, Owned for 4 Years
Fuel Economy: 9.0 km/litre (11.1 L/100 km), RON95, Mileage: 600 km/month
    The way it drives, confident on the highways, solid when handling corners. Aurcond is as good as any proton. Sound system is a plus. Interior space and boot space is definitely on par with class leaders.
    NVH could be better, fuel economy is just acceptable. The infotainment system needs an upgrade as no apple carplay or android auto. Hey proton is basically a gimmick. Had an issue with the airbag warning system that kept going on, took almost 7 visits to the service centre and now it seems to be fixed.

2.0T Luxury (2020)
Bought new, Owned for 3 Years
Fuel Economy: 12.0 km/litre (8.3 L/100 km), RON95, Mileage: 2,000 km/month
    - Impressive fuel efficiency for SUV. RPM stays around 2k at 120 km/h cruising speed.
    - Plenty of power and torque in Sport mode. Overtaking is a breeze.
    - Plenty of leather across the cabin, oozing luxurious feeling
    - Seats are really comfortable, especially with the ventilation function
    - Spacious and plenty of leg room, can fits 4 adults [...]
    - Dated cabin design, but it is understandable since it was launch 10 years ago.
    - Body roll during hard cornering is noticeable.
    - Hate the gloss finish of the console.
    - Key fob looks cheap and doesn't justify its price.
    - Reverse camera is terrible, the quality is similar to the cheapest one from Shopee
    - Infotainment is mediocre at best.

1.6 VVT Premium CVT (2015)
Bought new, Owned for 8 Years
Fuel Economy: 9.0 km/litre (11.1 L/100 km), RON95, Mileage: 800 km/month
    1. Handling is superb, everytime I drive this car around corners is such a vibe.
    2. Chassis is solid, it does not feel like tin milo at all. The body feels heavy and planted.
    3. Engine packs a punch, got enough pickup to memotong other cars.
    4. Safety like 6 airbags, ESC and Proton's HPF body structure makes me feel confident.
    5. Long dist[...]
    1. CVT transmission is not great. It's slow to react. Sometimes, it took almost 2 seconds to react to the pedal. It's annoying especially during sudden acceleration or on slow traffic.
    2. Fuel consumption is really high. It's not suitable for city driving.
    3. Limited cabin space, especially at the back seats and the boot.
    4. Build quality i[...]

Bought new, Owned for 3 Years
Fuel Economy: 25.0 km/litre (4.0 L/100 km), RON95, Mileage: 1,250 km/month
    - A peppy 1.4 TFSI engine that provides a smooth ride commuting to work and spirited driving on the weekends
    - A practical compact hatchback which is ideal for tight parking spots and squeezing in gaps during traffic jams
    - Suitable tire size (215/55/17) and suspension tuning to dampened Malaysia's "unpredictable" road conditions
    - Comes with[...]
    - Lack of power adjustable seats for both driver and passenger seats at this price point

1.4 AT (2021)
Bought used, Owned for 2 Years
Fuel Economy: 13.0 km/litre (7.7 L/100 km), RON97, Mileage: 2,000 km/month
    - Very good power, peak torque comes in at 2,500rpm so it's perfect for urban driving
    - Nimble and predictable handling, even on stock suspension
    - Brakes are responsive and bite well due to light weight (only 970kg kerb weight)
    - Myriad of aftermarket parts available
    - Able to run on RON95 with no issues
    - Great fuel efficiency on the hig[...]
    - No 'tapau' hooks in the interior, and you can't add any to the existing seats due to the design
    - Very thin paint, the car is prone to stone chips that expose bare metal
    - Original 16" rims are hideous
    - No rear fog lamp compared to recond models
    - Poor soundproofing for a >RM100k car
    - Interior finishing is riddled with hard plastics

    2. Low fuel consumption. i have driven on highway KL to Penang @ 21km/l driving sedately within speed limit. that is as low as an axia.
    3. Stable handling. able to handle high speed curve well. Driven 298km from KL to Penang with only 2 hours 20 mins but that is during midnight with no car at @ 10km/l fuel comsu[...]
    1. ACC need better improvement. Sometime it is unable to detect cars in front and accelerate close to the car in front and had to slam on the brake. If there are motorcycle beside you speed up, it will assume the traffic ahead is clearing up and speed up as well but the traffic is still packed. Happened a few occasions.
    2. Too low slung, the ca[...]

Hybrid 1.5 MT (2014)
Bought used, Owned for 5 Years
Fuel Economy: 16.0 km/litre (6.3 L/100 km), RON95, Mileage: 1,500 km/month
    Pros
    - The look. Beauty in the eyes of beholder.
    - Very good fuel efficiency. I live and drive mostly in a city and can get around 16-17km/L per tank on Econ mode.
    - Handling is good as the car is almost sticking to the floor, low centre of gravity. Stable cornering at speed.
    - Good front legroom for its size.
    - 6 speed gear is reasonably[...]
    Cons
    - Unlike Proton Satria. CR-Z rear seat is just decoration and not practical.
    - Can't really find other complaint. Easily one of the most reliable car i ever drive (5 to date)

    The ride is very smooth. The CVT has improved a lot compared to the first generation.
    The handling is amazing. The car is a joy to drive at high speeds and around corners. It's reassuring and stable yet fun and engaging. Puts a big smile on your face if you're someone who enjoys driving.
    The build quality is really solid. The plastics are hard[...]
    Proton QC can be A LOT better. Less than 10k kilometers and almost 6 service center visits.
    ADAS can be included as it was previously tested on the IRIZ but not sure why it's still not available.
    A manual version with the 1.6 Engine in full spec would have been my personal pic of the range
    I wouldn't recommend this car over the Myvi unless yo[...]

    - car is simply amazing to drive - it is silky smooth and it can really speed up when needed
    - it is very sporty looking from outside

    - It has a very powerful engine - 2800cc diesel
    - it has absolutely awesome pulling capacity - the SA said 1 tonne and we used it to literally take apart our bungalow and move the important parts to the new place in this truck. Each load would easily be 0.5 tonne

Bought new, Owned for 10 Years
Fuel Economy: 20.0 km/litre (5.0 L/100 km), RON95, Mileage: 100 km/month
    - the rear doors open 90 degrees - entering and exiting is super for older folks and if you have things to put in

    Very good looking car with sharp design. You will be surprised how well the NVH of this ES250 is, all windows are double layered, you will easily fall asleep because of the comfortable cabin, soft plush semi-aniline leather seats. The ride is exceptional comfortable without losing the firmness of the suspension, the suspension able to soak up al[...]
    Android Auto is wired, couldn't connect with latest Android OS (Samsung S23) is quite frustrating.

Bought new, Owned for 1 Year
Fuel Economy: 11.0 km/litre (9.1 L/100 km), RON95, Mileage: 1,000 km/month
    - The 1.5 Turbo engine is powerful, when switched to "Power" mode going up a steep incline, I was pleasantly surprised to find the car accelerating even with 3 adult passengers onboard.
    - The handling is surprisingly good for such a tall vehicle. I was able to take the curving and windy stretches of Batu Ferringhi roads with good speed.

    - The CVT gearbox is smooth but when driven hard one will still encounter the usual drone and rubber-banding effect of the belts. One wonders how a DCT (like on the X50) would perform when mated to the 1.5 Turbo engine from Honda..
