Malaysia's Proton S70 Sedan Revealed Uncovered

Proton's upcoming sedan, previously referred to as the S50, has now been officially named the Proton S70, as confirmed by recent images unveiled on Paultan. These photographs provide an unobstructed view of the car's rear badge, marking the first time the vehicle has been spotted without camouflage.

The S70 was captured during a television commercial shoot, with a noticeable presence of a Porsche camera car. Proton's executives had hinted at an accelerated launch schedule for this new sedan, and this sighting aligns with their intentions.


Drawing its inspiration from the Geely Emgrand, a C-segment vehicle built on the B-segment BMA platform shared with the Proton X50, the S70 boasts a larger profile compared to its B-segment sedan rivals such as the Toyota Vios (Yaris) and Honda City. The S70 distinguishes itself primarily through cosmetic changes, featuring the distinctive infinite weave grille seen on other Proton models. Interior images of the S70 are yet to be disclosed, but they are likely to share similarities with the Emgrand, with minor variations.

Under the hood, the Proton S70 is expected to house Geely's 1.5-liter naturally-aspirated four-cylinder petrol engine, producing 113 horsepower and 147 Nm of torque. This powerplant is anticipated to be mated to either a 5-speed manual or CVT gearbox, directing power to the front wheels.


Proton's latest line of Geely-based models has gained international attention, with exports reaching various countries, including Brunei, Pakistan, Kenya, and South Africa. While it remains to be seen when the S70 will become available in export markets, its launch in Malaysia is scheduled for the latter part of this year.
