勁爆！過時的本田雅閣冷屁股，貼上普騰將相的熱臉，要賣你12萬令吉，你會買嗎？
當國產車公司宣布新款的Proton Perdana售價表時，全網絡幾乎一面倒罵翻了！
根據普騰的定價表，Proton Perdana 2.0售價RM113,888.00；而Proton Perdana 2.4售價則為RM138,888.00；這兩個售價都還不包括6%的GST。
網民看到這個售價，最直接的反應就是屌到普騰翻筋斗！
因為最新款的Honda Accord 2.0的OTR售價也只不過是RM125,000.00！人家Honda絕大部分零件都是進口貨，連引擎也是最新研發的i-VTEC V6。而Proton Perdana用的卻是人家Honda 已經停產的舊款Accord；使用的也是屬於過時的iVTEC引擎！卻只比全新Honda Accord便宜區區RM12,000.00！買得起這些中上價位新車的人，哪裡可能會選購Proton這冒牌的舊車款？
再說，同一個等級的Nissan Teana 2.0的OTR（ON THE ROAD）售價也只是RM123,000.00。
為什麼網民罵翻了呢？因為Proton使用的是國產車裝配技術，使用的原料是相對比較廉價的本地零部件，也就是前首相敦馬哈迪所說《用了兩三年車內就充滿交響樂（很多零件鬆動的聲音）》的劣質零部件。只要看看過去國產車出產的普騰將相每年需要極其高昂的維修費就很清楚，我們並沒有冤枉普騰。
從車內座位到車身零部件都使用本地劣質貨（只要你了解絕大多數國產車零部件都由土著壟斷式承包，你就明白為什麼這些零部件會是劣質了）；加上國產車享有土著般的稅務優惠特權，竟然還要賣到11萬3千令吉！真把人民當成冤大頭了！
據悉，普騰國產車公司前年花了馬幣3.5億，從本田公司買下一條已經停產的第八代Accord生產線，當時業界專家就已經判定普騰的決定是錯誤的。
現在整個收購生產線的過程與條件都非常明朗了。Honda將過時的ACCORD車款生產線賣給Proton，其中一項最關鍵的條件就是Proton不得將改成Proton Perdana的舊款Accord出口到國外市場；只能在大馬國內銷售！
但是由於國內消費能力問題，這款被人們戲稱為《ACCORD PERDANA》或《PROTON ACCORD》的中等價格《新車》根本無法量產，因為生產太多根本賣不出去；但是不開動生產線，每天虧本更嚴重！
因此現在Proton宣布將在下半年正式將Perdana推出市場，但同時宣布每年只限量生產7,000輛；換句話說，每個月產量少過600輛，平均每天生產20輛。
據Proton內部消息透露，若這款Perdana的銷售反應符合預期的話，Proton將可以在2017年底要求Honda提供新款的引擎；一旦獲准使用新款引擎，Proton Perdana就有可能獲得許可出口去外國銷售。
為什麼使用舊款Accord引擎的Perdana不被允許出口呢？這就是問題的關鍵了！如果舊款Accord引擎沒有問題，為什麼不獲准外銷？不允許外銷，是不是說明這車款的工藝水準整體不能達到國際標準規格？Honda是擔心Proton Perdana銷售到國外，一旦發生問題將影響Honda的聲譽嗎？
再說，如果國內銷售量達不到預期的目標呢？怎麼辦？
話說回來，前年汽車業界就已經評估，若舊款Accord改成Proton Perdana，合理售價應該是介於10萬至12萬左右；現在Proton宣布的售價，明顯已經偏高。是不是因為《限量生產》可以通過人們《物以稀為貴》的心理去搶購，所以抬高售價希望多賺呢？
Proton前任集團顧問敦馬哈迪說過，以Proton現有的集團狀況，它必須每個月銷售達到5,000輛車，才能夠收支平衡；若少過5千輛，將會虧本。進奶奶4月份馬來西亞汽車銷售報告出爐，Proton的總銷售量只有4,400輛左右，按照敦馬的說法，Proton又血流不止了。
據說，Proton最近銷量持續低迷，最淒慘的時候一個星期賣不到100輛，目前平均每天只能賣出約100輛至150輛左右；每個月虧損數千萬令吉。
如此看來，納吉政府最近通過換股方式為Proton注資12.5億令吉，恐怕不到一年又將虧光了。
長貧難顧，這樣下去Proton很有可能將步Perwaja後塵，收檔是遲早的事。
Netizens bash latest Proton Perdana over its price
Many note its hefty price tag is simply too expensive for a locally manufactured car.
PETALING JAYA: If Proton wanted to win over new customers following the debut of its latest fourth-generation Proton Perdana, it may just have to try harder.
Checks on social media found that netizens are ripping into the national car company over the model’s hefty price tag.
One Facebook user, Ballu Bee, commenting on an article in Paul Tan’s Automotive News, expressed disappointment over the Perdana.
「Unfortunately, Proton failed to impress again. Overpriced and cheap-looking.」
Another netizen, Phoenix Tale, said: 「What’s the point of copying the body of overseas made car. I rather buy a Honda Accord instead of a Perdana」.
Priced at RM113,888 and RM138,888 for the 2.0 and 2.4 variants respectively, netizens pointed out that it is overpriced, considering it is a national car.
Some also drew a comparison with the Honda Accord, saying that the prices of both cars didn』t differ much from one another.
「Big joke on pricing. Honda Accord costs RM125,000 (on the road), while Nissan Teana costs RM123,000 (on the road),」 says Kunta on Paul Tan’s page.
Another netizen, Jason Harry, acknowledged that it is a nice car overall, but its price tag isn』t impressive at all.
「To be fair, it is a nice car throughout. Being Honda Accord based, I bet it comes with the typical Honda quality as well.
「It is practically just a rebadged car but with Proton’s own facelift design on it.
「I』m sorry but if I』m shopping for cars around this price range, I will pass.
「If it’s cheaper, I』d consider. It is a good car, but it is not so attractive price wise.」
Earlier this year, Proton Chief Executive Officer Abdul Harith Abdullah had announced the My New Proton initiative to restore and maintain confidence in the brand.
This included better servicing facilities and breakdown services.
He vowed that Proton would be more transparent from now on and would directly inform customers if their cars needed a service fix.
This was to win back customers』 confidence in Proton cars.
New Proton Perdana limited to 7,000 units annually; exports permitted once new engines on board in 2017
The outgoing, government issue-only Proton Perdana was based upon the eighth-generation Honda Accord, and was subject to production and export restrictions. The just-launched Proton Perdana – fourth generation by Proton’s reckoning – is also based upon the Japanese car, hence it is subject to restrictions the same as those imposed upon the preceding model.
Part of the agreement between Honda and Proton is that export of the Perdana is not permitted, and annual production volume is limited to 7,000 units; Proton expects the Perdana to receive powertrain updates at the end of 2017, which then allows it to meet the stipulations of export.
「The powertrain change is expected at the end of 2017. So, by that time, we』ll put in a new engine for the Perdana and with that engine, Honda will allow us to export the the Perdana overseas. But having said that, I believe the local demand will be sufficient for us to meet the requirements,」 according to Proton CEO Ahmad Fuaad Kenali. Even so, Fuaad added, it is subject to negotiations with Honda.
In terms of the bigger picture, Proton says it is still on track towards its overall annual target of 150,000 units, although that may not take place this year due to the delay in the Perdana’s introduction to market, which consequently will weigh down on overall numbers.
「The Perdana originally was supposed to be launched in January so, by right, the whole year would have given us 6,000 numbers in terms of target. But now, it’s been deferred to today, which is June 14, so that will halve the numbers. Likewise, for the Proton Persona, Saga, as well as Ertiga (a small MPV, under collaboration with Suzuki), there’s some delay to the numbers. That’s why the numbers now cannot be 150,000 but we still hold true if it’s full year’s numbers, once all these models are introduced,」 Fuaad added.
