Proton P3-21A - Specification & Visual check!

The new Proton P3-21A seems to have created much hype. After all, this is probably the first time Proton launched a turbo charged engine (there was a turbo charged Wira or Saga on a limited run or as an add on package previously if I am not mistaken, done by PERT). in a sedan car. We could only speculate what the aftermarket scene will do to this car! Be prepared for bigger turbos and other electronic upgrades to unlock the P3-21A's true potential! There is also a non turbo charged engine variant. I am sure most people will find a way to get the non-turbo version to be turbo ! Huge potential for aftermarket kits!


Visually it looks very much like a Honda City or Kia Forte at a glance, however the front grille and head lamp combination from spyshots seem to suggest otherwise.
