Frequently Asked Questions

The new 1.5L i-GT TD 4-cylinder engine (181 PS, 290 Nm) delivers significantly better NVH (Noise, Vibration, Harshness) refinement compared to the previous 3-cylinder. It's quieter at highway speeds, has smoother power delivery, and eliminates the characteristic 3-pot thrum, making the X70 feel more premium while maintaining excellent performance and efficiency.

No, the 2026 X70 is front-wheel drive (2WD) only. Proton discontinued the AWD variant to streamline the lineup and reduce pricing. However, the more powerful 181 PS 4-cylinder engine with 290 Nm torque provides ample performance for most driving conditions, and the excellent traction control system handles slippery conditions well.

Yes! Both Executive and Premium variants feature wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, available from launch. The system works through the 12.3-inch touchscreen and also supports wired connections. The 'Hi Proton' voice assistant provides hands-free control for navigation, music, and calls.

The Premium (RM123,481, offer RM116,481) costs RM13,365 more than the Executive (RM110,116, offer RM103,116). For that, you get: 19-inch wheels (vs 18-inch), Nappa leather (vs leatherette), power/ventilated seats, full Level 2 ADAS suite, 360-degree camera, multicolour ambient lighting, and TPMS. If you value advanced safety and comfort features, it's excellent value.

Premium features comprehensive Level 2 ADAS: Autonomous Emergency Braking (AEB), Forward Collision Warning (FCW), Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) with stop-and-go, Intelligent Cruise Control (ICC), Lane Departure Warning/Prevention/Centering (LDW/LDP/LCC), Traffic Sign Information (TSI), Intelligent High Beam Control (IHBC), Lane Change Assist (LCA), Rear Cross Traffic Alert (RCTA), Rear Collision Warning (RCW), Door Opening Warning (DOW), plus 360-degree HD camera. Executive has no ADAS.

The new 4-cylinder produces 181 PS vs 177 PS (3-pot), and 290 Nm vs 255 Nm torque. More importantly, it's significantly quieter and smoother with better NVH refinement. The 0-100 km/h time improves to around 10 seconds (vs 10.2s), and the extra torque from 2,000 rpm makes overtaking and hill climbs effortless. Highway cruising is now much more relaxed.

Based on a standard 9-year loan: Executive is RM1,126/month (offer price RM103,116), and Premium is RM1,272/month (offer price RM116,481). Both variants include RM7,000 discount from retail. Actual monthly payments may vary depending on your down payment, loan tenure, and interest rates from different banks.

Executive: 18-inch wheels, leatherette seats, manual seats, no ADAS, basic parking sensors. Premium adds: 19-inch dual-tone wheels, Nappa leather, 6-way power driver seat with lumbar, 4-way passenger power seat with 'Boss' switch, ventilated front seats, full Level 2 ADAS suite, 360-degree HD camera with transparent view, multicolour rhythmic ambient lighting, auto-dimming mirror, TPMS, and front parking sensors (in addition to rear).
