Proton Arena - Body Design

Body Design

The Arena is based largely on Proton's Wira/Persona saloon, sharing similar frontal designs of the then current Wira and mechanics, but having a reduced seating capacity of two confined to a Wira-based cabin and featuring a rear cargo bed measuring 1,636 mm (64.4 in) x 1,349 mm (53.1 in) x 415 mm (16.3 in) with a maximum payload of 570 kg (1,257 lb) and a maximum load area of 1.64 m (65 in) x 1.18 m (46 in).

In Malaysia, the Arena is offered in three variants, which features a variety of cargo bed accessories and trims but does not vary mechanically from the export edition:

  • The "Freestyle", the base Arena model with an open bed, exposed metal sports bars, steel rims and hubcaps.
  • The "Sportdeck", an open bed variant similar to the Freestyle with covered sports bars, body trims, and alloy rims.
  • The "Fastback", an upmarket variant with a hard, streamlined tonneau cover-cum-camper shell (resembling a fastback body style), body trims, and alloy rims.

In Australia, the Jumbuck is available in two variants, GLi and GLSi.

Famous quotes containing the words body and/or design:

    The body prospered, teeth in the marrowed gums,
    The growing bones, the rumour of manseed
    Within the hallowed gland, blood blessed the heart....
    Dylan Thomas (1914–1953)

    A good scientist is a person with original ideas. A good engineer is a person who makes a design that works with as few original ideas as possible. There are no prima donnas in engineering.
    Freeman Dyson (b. 1923)
