Did i regret buying this car ? No , for the price definitely no . For comfort , no regret at all . Fuel efficiency , average . First of all the seats are very comfortable to be honest. The driving experience is on point . The A/C is super cold The boot is huge CVT is somehow still a bit of laggy and it jerks if you pump Euro 95 , recommend Euro97. 1st gear is not too torqy , but the 2nd ,3rd & the 4th gear is very more powerful then the 1st gear . The height of the car is higher then any regular city car , extra head room for sure , doors won't scratch on the divider if you park at a side parking when you open the door . The leg room at the back seats is just simply enough , not very spacious . If you have a hook at the back of the front seats , the passenger at the back might not be that comfortable to be sit in the car with stuffs hanging infront of his face . Comparing to a Myvi, Bezza, Proton Saga Better driving experience More comfortable seats More power on the highway But , Perodua always have a better look and extra leg room As a driver , i prefer Persona As a Passenger , i prefer Myvi Less

I own Persona VVT since 2017. Performace wise, there is a jerk right from standstill, especially during traffic jams. Highest speed recorded around 178km/h. Not the best in fuel saving as Proton

I own Persona VVT since 2017. Performace wise, there is a jerk right from standstill, especially during traffic jams. Highest speed recorded around 178km/h. Not the best in fuel saving as Proton engines is very well known for fuel thirst engine but slightly better than previous Persona. Interior design is okay only but not too outdated as compared to Almera or Myvi. Minor rattling can be heard after 15 months of ownership especially on the dashboard. Aircond knob on the aircond vent broken after less than 2 years of use and i have to fork out RM70 to replace each knob. Wind noise from outside is protruding to the cabin from door. But small fix by installing rubber hose surrounding door frame can solve that. Safety wise, top notch. Handling is miles better than Japanese counterparts. However, airbag notification keeps lighting up due to loose wiring under the driver and co-driver's seat. Exterior design wise, Proton should hire better designer as Persona is meant to be a sedan, it does not look like a proper sedan. It looked like an Iriz with extended boot. 15 inch wheels that come together with the car was meant for fuel economy but does not suit with the look of the car. But above all, it does its purpose to bring me from point A to B. I would reccomend this car. Less

Overall nice, less problem and save oil

I bought my car in 2014 by using GradHitz Scheme from Bank Islam. After 5 years, i never had a major issue with my car. Everything was smooth and my mileage already entered 90000km. I was impressed

I bought my car in 2014 by using GradHitz Scheme from Bank Islam. After 5 years, i never had a major issue with my car. Everything was smooth and my mileage already entered 90000km. I was impressed with the car reliability as i read so many bad review about the brand and the model as well. Surprisingly, it still 'tahan'! The main point here-you just need to service your car regularly,use original part and NEVER EVER 'overuse' your car (you drove like Hamilton while driving a Persona? NO!!) Of course, there is no such thing as PERFECTION (Even Lamborghini got a complaint!) The NVH and under-power engine is the common thing but hey! you are paying for Persona,not a continental brand! Lets enjoy it while waiting for X50! :-) Less

If wanna go value for money but you have limited budget this is the car for you no joke!
