PROTON TIARA!!!!

Presented at Taipeh on December 12 1989, the C15 was assembled locally by the Chinese Automobile Trading Co. (CAC) until 1996; it was produced in three versions: light van, family van with back bench seat and a pick-up. A method of manufacture was set up, which made it possible to carry out some modifications, for example producing wider wings thus avoiding the addition of the plastic edges. Available from the start in a petrol 1.41 version, a diesel version appeared in June 1990.

Created in 1983 in Malaysia, the Proton company was born out of the desire of the Prime Minister, Dr. Mahathir, to create a national car industry; the capital of this company was divided between the state company Hicom (Heavy Industries Corp.) which has a majority holding and Mitsubishi.

An agreement was signed on September 12, 1995 between the French manufacturer and Proton envisaging the assembly, under the Proton mark, of a car derived from Citroen AX. This vehicle could thus profit from the whole of the tax advantages attached to the status of national vehicle. Thus was born Tiara, version local of the AX equipped with the 1.1l engine; on November 2, 1995 the production line was inaugurated by Mr. Satinet representing Citroën and Dr. Mahathir.
For the assembly of this vehicle, Citroën provided collections CKD and its technical aid. The assembly of Tiara was carried out in Pékan within the framework of the company Usahasama Proton-DRB (USPD). It was also USPD which is in charge of the marketing of the Tiara Proton. The initial production target was 20,000 vehicles per annum; actually the production culminated in 1997 at 14,297 units to finish in 1999 with 118 units. In three years a little less than 30,000 Tiara were assembled.
