After months of teasing, the Proton S70 was officially unveiled at an event held at their factory in Tanjung Malim. The S70 is the first sedan launched by Proton since the Persona in 2016 and the first since its takeover by Geely. This four-door sedan uses a Geely Emgrand-based design.
In terms of specifications, this vehicle uses a 1.5L turbo engine, comes with several ADAS features such as those offered on the X50, X70 and X90 series as well as a dual-clutch transmission system. Unlike the X90, the engine used is not a hybrid type with the help of an electric motor. Interior images show the use of a large central infotainment screen and a fully digital driver's display screen.
Pre-booking can be done now by paying only RM500. A pre-sale event for the public to see the S70 for themselves will be held nationwide starting November 11. More detailed information about the models that will be offered, the selling price and the official launch date will only be known in the future.
