Feel some satisfaction
Style, safety, spaciousness, practicality, quality, comfort and performance are the seven key areas that guided Proton Designers and Engineers in formulating a package to meet the requirements and expectations of a wide spectrum of buyers.
Feel the beat
The Persona features a quality four speaker audio system, be entertained by the Blaupunkt stereo system and operate the volume and track selection via the steering wheel controls without taking your eyes off the road.
Safe and secure
The Persona list of standard safety features includes ABS brakes with Electronic Brake Distribution, SRS dual front airbags, front seatbelt pre-tensioners, remote keyless locking and an engine immobiliser with alarm.
Refined interior, guaranteed to impress
The interior is a refinement of the current GEN.2 design with its sporty Lotus inspired instrument binnacle and air conditioning controls while incorporating a new black and grey dash trim, an integrated glove box, new door mounted power window and remote mirror controls as well as improved seats and a redesigned centre console.
Ticks all the boxes
An expansive standard equipment list includes ABS brakes with EBD, driver and front passenger SRS airbags, air conditioning, power windows, remote keyless entry and boot release, power exterior mirrors, electronic reversing sensors, AM/FM/MP3/CD 4 speaker audio system and multi spoke alloy wheels.
Park confidently
Not only does the rear look great but it’s as functional as ever, the Persona comes equipped with Reverse Parking Sensors as standard.
We’re not just all torque
Persona’s 1.6L Double Over Head Cam engine produces maximum power of 82kW at 6000rpm and 148Nm of torque at 4000rpm, however more importantly it delivers fuel economy of just 4.5ltr/100km on the highway cycle for the manual variant, the equivalent of 62 miles per gallon in the old money.

Ride and handling
The Persona responds to each and every driver input. Lotus engineered ride and handling has created this agile four door sedan that is responsive and inspires confidence.
The Persona has a modest rear end
Persona boasts a spacious 430-litre boot compartment with the added versatility of 60/40 split fold rear seats for additional luggage space. Furthermore, the rear seats independently fold forward and create an opening into the cabin which makes the Persona versatile for transporting larger objects.
