SATRIA NEO and THE INTERIOR

Interior of SATRIA NEO

The car seems strangely smaller in the flesh, against all the photos scattered around the Internet. But if you thought it was good in pictures, it's a huge two more Up Close and Personal. Proton should be commended for the planning, the date in my opinion the best car Proton to. "A" for the efforts of the proton and an "A" for the execution as well!

The interior of the Satria Neo is a great improvement over that of the Gen.2 and Savvy. When we saw the Savvy provides a better quality of construction on its cousin, the greater the Gen.2, the Satria Neo seems at first sight is even better. Proton-Lotus is continuing its DNA, minimalist, modern street with the interior.



Personally, I love this, colors and materials used and the impression of the strength of the company. Aesthetics aside, the seating position is spot-on. Where I can barely fit in the driver's seat, one Gen.2 with my 6ft 1in frame, the Satria Neo is fully adjustable and space. The seat was solid and offers great support. I did not try the back seats, because I thought it would be a futile endeavor. There is only room you can use a 2-door hatch, including the offer of the old Satria.
