Who had ever used Exora ? Or who had booked Exora? If not, good news for you because Proton has just launched a Proton Exora the updated edition. With the introduction of updated model, the Proton was targeting sales of 2.500 units per month. Actually nothing is updated by the Proton; perhaps this is one of their strategies or their gift to you during the festive season. (Yet, you still cannot apply on road even you booked early!).
An additional term of this new edition is the colour and some accessories to look sportier. Interesting is, customers only need to add RM1, 000 for this edition, besides the beginning of the book, that is available only 1000 unit.
Exora comes in four variations of the 1.6L Campro CPS H-Line AT, 1.6L Campro CPS M-Line AT, 1.6L Campro CPS M-Line MT and 1.6L Campro CPS B-Line MT. How about the price? Not much really change from the existing one, just an increase of RM 1,000 for each model, the Proton Campro engine Exora using CPS 1.6 with a maximum power of 93kW (125hp) @ 6500rpm and maximum torque of 150Nm @ 4500rpm.

Proton EXORA MPV – The Malaysia’s first MPV Proton Exora launched on April 15 2009. After so long waiting this Malaysian made MPV Proton Exora, with so many leaked Proton Exora pictures and rumors, now answered. Here you are, we bring you the most wanted picture first, the back of Proton Exora. Looking at the previous leaked pictures, it is so different and this one really looks cool! We are at the EON Glenmarie during launching of Proton Exora. We are really surprised with what Proton offers compare to the price which is around RM69k to RM75k.
Overall, the Proton Exora exterior is absolutely great and nothing else to say, Proton Exora is going to be the most desireable MPV in Malaysia. I personally proud of what Proton has made to produce our first MPV. The quality of the Proton Exora interior, nothing feels cheap. Meaning that the interior of this 7 seater MPV is nice and well designed. Especially the steering wheel which look like Honda’s steering. The 5 spoke sport rims really satisfy the eyes of observer which looks fit to the Proton Exora MPV.
From bonnet to bumper, your elegant cruising machine Proton Exora is fitted with only the best in aesthetics. Take a glance at its stylish body featuring a sporty winged grille, plus integrated head lamps and fender design.

PROTON EXORA
Proton Exora Carries up to 7 adults comfortably in plush leather seats*. For more room, the 2nd and 3rd rows can be arranged and folded in 6 different ways, including completely flat.Surprisingly, the 2nd and third row of Proton Exora fit 5 adults with comfortable space. I have tried sitting at the back and i feel that there is no problem for me to sit there for a long journey because Proton Exora can fit me without feeling uncomfortable. Amazing for an MPV below RM80k! I would say the space for third row is better than Rondo and Grand Livina. Proton Exora is really for 2 adults, not just 2 small kids.
Proton Exora comes with dual blower and individual air-cond outlets at every row, built-in entertainment system* and 10 cup holders. Interior finishing of Proton Exora is very nice.

The Proton Exora is powered by CAMPRO CPS 1.6 litre engine. Proton Exora is enough to bring this MPV with 7 passenger inside anywhere. Reading so many Proton Exora test drive review recently, they were all satisfy with the performance of this CAMPRO CPS under the hood of Proton Exora. But Proton Exora will not beat the Nissan Grand Livina’s 1.6 CVTC responsive engine due to the weight of Proton Exora is more than Livina eventhough both engine have same 1600 cc displacement. However, the performance of Proton Exora is acceptable and you will have no problem with Proton Exora to bring a body of a quite big MPV. Anyway, this is an MPV, not a racing sports car.
The Proton Exora center panel on dashboard is pretty nice. Looks simple yet elegant. the gated auto gear which only have on high end cars available in Proton Exora is easy to reach.
To summarize Malaysia’s first MPV, Proton Exora , it is a very affordable, spacious, good looking, worth for money Multi Purpose Vehicle. So many good spec in an affordable MPV makes it a tough competitor to other automaker’s MPV in Malaysia.
