PROTON has officially introduced the Proton S70, a sleek and feature-rich sedan that combines the trusted Proton lineage with the innovative design of the Geely Emgrand model. The Proton S70 is available in four distinct variants. The variants are the 1.5T Executive, 1.5T Premium, 1.5T Flagship and the 1.5T Flagship X.
Based on and drawing inspiration from the Geely Emgrand, the Proton S70 features an identical shape with thoughtful modifications. The exterior is enhanced with a distinctive rear model script and a new grille adorned with chrome pin inserts. LED projector headlamps illuminate the path ahead, accompanied by LED taillights with a striking light bar. Completing the look are a sunroof and 17-inch 10-spoke wheels wrapped in Goodyear Assurance TripleMax 2 tires.
Under the hood, the Proton S70 differentiates itself with a turbocharged 1.5 L 3-cylinder engine paired with a 7-speed Dual Clutch Transmission (DCT). This powerhouse contrasts with the Geely’s naturally aspirated 4-cylinder engine with a Continuous Variable Transmission (CVT), delivering an exhilarating driving experience.
The Proton S70 embraces cutting-edge technology with a 10.25-inch TFT infotainment display boasting a resolution of 1,920 x 720.
