As you can see Campro engine is built to support AVT from this link.

There are suppose to be in production in 2008 from this link

On why this is the future of engine tech :

IMHO, this explain a lot with what Proton is doing. The engine need to rev hard for enough power, because it designed to be like that. On 2008 Proton will plug in AVT.This will take care of low rev tourqe.
That is why there is no CPS (inferior to VTEC, useless anyway). Proton want to wait for AVT. They want to jump to the forefront of technology. They want to sort out quality issues first (BIG MANUFACTURING ISSUE PROBLEM) , then put first class engine technology to the best quality that they can offer. You don't put best engine on a bad car right. Maybe this also explain why they test Satria anywhere .Its AVT inside.
So what u guys think ?
