Key Highlights
Overview
Since the signing ceremony between Proton and Zhejiang Geely Holding last July, Geely has confirmed that the first product to come out of this partnership would be based on the Geely Boyue.
The initial batches of the X70 will be imported from China, with local assembly at Proton's Tanjung Malim plant expected to commence some time in 2019-2020-2021.
All variants of the Proton X70 are powered by a 1.8-litre turbocharged direct-injection four-cylinder petrol engine, outputting 181 hp and 285 Nm. The sole transmission option is a six-speed automatic, sending power to either the front wheels or all four wheels, depending on specification.
Setting the Proton X70 apart from its competitors is its infotainment system. Unlike other similarly-priced rivals, the Proton X70's infotainment system is able to understand contextual, natural language voice control - just say "Hi Proton," followed by your instructions, similar to the Linguatronic "Hey Mercedes" system found in the W177-generation Mercedes-Benz A-Class.
A total of five body colours are available, which includes Snow White, Armour Silver, Jet Grey, Cinnamon Brown, and Flame Red. The Executive 2WD model gets four colours excluding Flame Red, while the remaining two models (Standard 2WD, Executive AWD) can only be had with two colours.
In terms of warranty, the Proton X70 is backed by a 5-year, unlimited mileage warranty. As for its data connectivity, the X70 is backed by a 5-year data package, capped at 1GB per month.

Review: Proton X70 - Is It Worth The Hype?
While the exterior of the X70 is largely similar to that of the facelifted Geely Boyue, the X70 gets a different front grille. In addition to that, the rear features a trim piece that connects both tail lights with the Proton wording embedded across. The range-topping Premium 2WD variant we tested here features LED headlights with LED daytime running lights and 19-inch alloy wheels. It is also worth noting that buyers of the Premium 2WD variant can choose any of the five colours, including Flame Red.

Toyota RAV4 vs Proton X70 - SUV Warfare From Opposite Sides
Here, the X70 is something of a local outlier, offering safety features that are leaps and bounds more advanced than any of Proton’s previous cars. This is almost entirely thanks to their Geely partnership, of course, and those ties with sister automaker Volvo also does plenty to lift their safety credentials to a world-class level. In addition to 6 airbags, anti-lock brakes and the assortment of stability + traction control, the X70 Premium X punches above its weight in its updated 2020 guise, offering an impressive list of active safety features such as Autonomous Emergency Braking, Forward Collision Warning, Blind Spot Monitoring, Lane Departure Warning, and even a 360-degree camera system into the mix.
