In a statement today, the national carmaker said the X70 SE is limited to 2,000 units, which are identical in specifications to the Premium 2WD (two-wheel-drive) variant that comes with a 1.8-litre turbocharged petrol direct-injection engine and a seven-speed dual-clutch transmission.

“Available in exclusive Ocean Blue, a new addition to the colour palette, and Ruby Red, it has its roof, rear spoiler and door mirrors presented in black as well as a new design of 19-inch sport rims.

“An exclusive SE emblem is mounted on the tailgate as a finishing touch,” it said.

The interior is predominantly black with luxurious detailing to elevate the ambiance of the cabin, it added.

Proton said the X70 SE is also equipped with the Proton Intelligent Air Purification System and a comprehensive list of safety features, including six supplemental restraint system (SRS) airbags and advanced driver assistance system, along with a tyre pressure monitoring system and 360 Camera.

The Proton X70 SE goes on sale today at an on-the-road price without insurance of RM123,800 until Dec 31, 2021, subject to availability.

It will be sold with the Pemerkasa Plus sales tax incentive worth RM7,000, Proton said, adding that bookings can be made online from as low as RM99.
