Just gotten myself a Proton Savvy, and people keep on hitting me with the same question, "Why don’t you go for Myvi?". Been driving both cars, here’s my answer for that. I can say it’s somewhat a Linux vs Windows duel.
| Savvy / Linux | Myvi / Windows |
| Built tough, no airbag | Not a strong build + with breaking fibreglass floor, but comes with airbag |
| Low adoption / penetration rate | Very good sales |
| Fast (Max achieved speed: 180km/h) | 1.3 dvvt can achieve 160 km/h |
| Stable at 150 km/h | Feel like flying at 120 km/h |
| Good ICE (In Car Entertainment) | Crappy sound |
| Very good handling | Handle with care |
About the Linux vs Windows part, it’s up to your own imagination to translate the above table into that

Oh, sorry for being bias. I paid for the car thus I must say good things about it to make me happy
Anyway, I have this posted here since I think it somewhat reflects Linux vs Windows story. Don’t you think so?
p/s: Free test drive of the savvy for the non-believers
