At a media preview today, we got to see the new Proton SUV. Here are a few things you need to know:
1) the car is called the X70
2) Bookings will be open starting tomorrow (8th September 2018). The booking fee is just RM1000. No price has been announced
3) 4 variants are expected. Trim levels are Standard (2WD), Executive (2WD and 4WD), and Premium (2WD)
4) The X70 debuts Proton’s new ethereal bow grille and infinite weave design motif
5) 2-Tone rims wrapped in Hankook Dynapro HP2 225/60/r18 were shown. The spare was an 18” space saver
6) The two exterior colour choices we saw were red and silver, with at least 3 more rumoured (yes, not a fact, I know)
7) The two interior finishes are black synthetic leather and brown Nappa leather. The brown Nappa leather finish features some use of synthetic leather.
Should have started with Black interior.
The Brown colour is not nice.
It is great that Proton has now gained an SUV model.
Good Luck.
