Proton Savvy among top 10 cars in Thailand in 2008
 

Malaysian-made Proton Savvy has been voted among Thailand's top 10 cars in 2008 by The Nationdaily's car writers.

The Savvy, priced at 469,000 baht (RM44,000), was selected along with some of the most impressive and expensive cars in the Thai market, among them the Jaguar XF, BMW 320D, Volvo S80 3.2, Mini Copper S Clubman, Honda City, Honda Jazz, Ford Focus 2.0 TDCI, Mitsubishi Pajero Sport and Subaru Impreza STI.

The daily said many would not consider Proton a mainstream brand in Thailand, but with the Savvy, the writers were more than impressed.

Low price, good acceleration and almost go-kart-like handling (thanks to Lotus) made us fall in love with this little Malaysian thing.
 

The quality of the car was the main factor for the selection, adding that the listing augured well for Proton brand in the market and its future model launchings in Thailand.

It's best value for money in Thailand market, with good performance, like handling, plus economical to purchase and operate.


When Proton made its debut at end-2007 in the Thai market, dominated by the world's top manufacturers like Toyota and Honda for decades, Savvy was the cheapest car priced between 399,000 baht (Rm 37,500)and 460,000 baht (Rm 43,200)

GEN 2 and Satria were launched at the same time while Persona CNG came to the market last December.

In its first year of operation in Thailand, Proton sold more than 3,000 cars, with Savvy accounting for 54 percent of the total sales.

During the 2009 25th Thailand International Motor Expo, Proton received 863 bookings, with the Persona model, fitted with preinstalled compressed natural gas (CNG), being the top model
