2024 PROTON S70 Review - Stuck In The Middle |

Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары

When PROTON described their new saloon as a C-segment vehicle, it was met with skepticism from not only the general public but automotive journalists too. With a relatively short wheelbase but a turbocharged powertrain, a comprehensive ADAS suite but a simple rear suspension setup, and a pricetag well-under RM100k, we couldn't make heads or tails of it.
Now, we have.

    Regardless of its segment. For a sub RM100k car, this is really a good buy. Value for money. And i don’t understand why Malaysians concern so much about car’s segment? I mean let us be realistic, if let say, you can buy a brand new Mercedes A class sedan at 130k. would you consider a brand new civic even if its priced at RM60k. Right?

    This segment thing proton started the fiasco, thinking that it makes people think they are getting a bigger car for a smaller class vehicle price and it clearly backfired and confused a lot of people specially those who are on the fence..but I do see a lot on the road already meaning actual buyers don't give a rat about which class it sits in!

    I'm more concerned about Proton after sales after owning a few of their cars in the past. Still not improving, even under Geely.

    For me the ride and handling for the S70 is relatively good and easy as well as comfort and not to 'hard' I would say. For comparison, my old Persona is more fun and responsive compared to the S70 in terms of road feedback and corner steering but comfort and maneuverability I would choose S70 for its light and precise steering. Don't get me wrong, I drove Saga/Persona/Ativa/HRV before I bought the S70. I could confirm that in terms of handling: S70>Persona>HRV>SAGA>Ativa.

    Didnt proton say there will be AA and ACP available for the S70/X90 by middle of the year??

    PROTON said that AACP will be available in "upcoming models" set to debut later this year. They have also clarified that current models don't have AACP due to a hardware issue. It is unclear if the hardware issue has been resolved in time for X90 and S70 (and therefore allowing them to receive AACP via an OTA update), or if X90 and S70 will have to receive product updates later.

    S70 a C segment sedan? Hardly right looking at its dimensions. Just because Proton said S70 is a C segment, you guys just bought their marketing pitch with no questions asked. Humm... I wonder why? To the general public with comon sense, Corolla and Civic is not under threat from S70 me thinks, maybe the B segment City and Vios are.

    A B-segment wheelbase with a C-segment width... As far as I noticed, S70's width is significantly larger then Vios and city?
