The 2024 Proton S70 has finally been launched in Malaysia! The price starts at RM73,800 and comes in four variants: Executive, Premium, Flagship, and Flagship X.

These are exciting times. Proton has taken the Malaysian automotive scene by storm in the last few years ever since the takeover by Geely, where they have flooded the market, especially the SUV market with the X brothers - the X50, X70, and the recently released X90. 

What is the Proton S70 price in Malaysia?

You must have googled ‘Proton S70 price’ at least once right? Below is the official price of the Proton S70 according to its variant:

Price Differences of Proton S70 VS Toyota Vios VS Honda City

After destabilizing the SUV market for other car manufacturers by capturing the attention of SUV buyers, Proton is getting ready to battle it out in the sedan segment against the established heavyweights including the class-leading Honda City, followed by Toyota Vios and Nissan Almera.

Proton is out to wrestle back their reputation which had taken a massive hit due to internal politicking and mismanagement for many years before Geely's arrival. After proving themselves in the SUV segment, Proton's next target is the Sedan segment. 

Proton S70 Specs

Proton has introduced four variants for the Proton S70:

• Proton S70 1.5T Executive
• Proton S70 1.5T Premium
• Proton S70 1.5T Flagship
• Proton S70 1.5T Flagship X

The Proton S70 is based on the Geely Emgrand's platform with a 1.5L naturally aspirated 4-cylinder engine with a CVT. On the other hand, the s70 is powered by a 1.5-liter turbocharged 3-cylinder MPI engine, a powerplant shared with the lower variants of the Proton X50. All variants share the same engine. Here are the Proton S70 engine performance details below:

• Engine: 3-cylinder In-Line, 12 Valve DOHC, Turbocharged
• Displacement (CC): 1,477
• Horsepower: 150 HP
• Torque: 226 Nm
• Transmission: 7-speed dual-clutch transmission (DCT) with manual mode
• Drive Mode Selection: Eco, Comfort, and Sport
• Drivetrain: Front-wheel drive (FWD)
• Fuel Tank Capacity: 50 Litre

The ride and handling are finely tuned for Malaysian roads, with spring rate adjusted higher at the front and lower at the back which delivers exceptional maneuverability and all-around comfort. Additionally, all S70 variants come with the convenience of a remote engine start feature.

Proton S70 1.5T Executive 

Being the base variant of the Proton S70 line-up, the overall look and feel of the 1.5T Executive is surprisingly as premium and it doesn't feel cheap at all. The grey fabric seats set themselves apart from the other 3 higher specs of the S70, so if you're a big fan of fabric seats then this could be the right spec for you. Other notable differences are the 16-inch alloy rims with Giticomfort F22 tyres, halogen headlamps, and a 3.25-inch monochrome meter display. As expected from Proton in collaboration with Geely, the infotainment system still lacks Apple CarPlay and Android Auto connectivity, and the same goes for the other variants.
