The Proton X70 has been confirmed as the official safety car, medical car and official car for the 2019 season of the Malaysia Speed Festival (MSF), with the first round set to take place this weekend (March 15 to 17, 2019) at the Sepang International Circuit, featured alongside the Asia GT Festival.
The main highlight of the MSF races will no doubt be the Saga Cup, as Tun Dr Mahathir will be present at the circuit he launched back in 1998 to flag off racing versions of the first Proton car he unveiled 35 years ago.
Tun Dr Mahathir will also be taken for a ride around the Sepang Circuit in the phenomenal electric hyper car the NiO EP9, which will then lead the GT3, GTC, and GT4 cars around a parade lap with the Saga Cup racing cars. The NiO EP9 is blisteringly fast with a 335.25 hp electric motor per wheel for a total of 1341 hp (1360 PS) across all four wheels.
A total of 13 racing categories, with four race per day, will take place under the MSF umbrella, including Street 1600, Street 2000, and Super Street races, to the open-class Masters Unlimited category.
Meanwhile, the Asia GT Festival will also feature the China GT Championship series with two races per day – Race 1 will be the GT4 category, whilst Race 2 will be the faster GT3 and GTC category. Grandstand tickets start at only RM20 and available online or at the gates, whilst access to the MSF paddock is RM35.

The real game changer is here again. Habisla All Nissan Models including New Facelift Nissan Xtrail as All Nissan Models including New Facelift Nissan Xtrail looks outdated and very boring design for both exterior and interior design. Don’t forget, Nissan Xtronic Gearbox got too much problematic. Whereas, Proton, Mazda, Volvo, Toyota, BMW, Mercedes and other carmakers that produces Gearbox have lesser problematic than Nissan.
Lucky China has given us a car/SUV that we can be proud of.
Thank you Li Chunrong, Geely and China for giving us a car that is so high in safety spec and quality.
For 30 years, our own National car company could not give this to Malaysians and we needed a foreign company to give the rakyat of Malaysia finally a good car.
We can expect the 2020 MSF season will not use the X70 again because they regret it. Habisla X70!!
Chances are they will upgrade to then Proton X80.
Why use this car? It does not appeal to the young. Young and fresh grads prefer other brands.

Yeah, as if a RM100k car is within reach of the young and fresh grads. Try better next time Perodua troll.
Wow this Kunta Kinte guy, like how many times does he repeat the same crap on different posts?
Aruz better
Better in consuming fuel
The fake dupe from john. Habisla john caught with his pants down!!
Copy paste: “Lucky Indonesia has given us a car/SUV that we can be proud of.
Thank you Dato Abidin, Toyota Indo and Indonesia for giving us a car that is so high in safety spec and quality.
For 30 years, our own National car company could not give this to Malaysians and we needed a foreign company to give the rakyat of Malaysia finally a good car.”
john already got caught with copy pasting, still want to do it.
Why are you antagonist against the truth?
you are right, both Proton and Perodua both never learn anything. This shows for 30 years, Malaysians are incompetent and cannot learn anything. We need more China people to come into Malaysia to help us run the country
local university belajar apa ya? Sampai hari ni tak boleh buat kereta sendiri

The X70 is a good car! Proton will finally be great again :D Geely did save Volvo after all, now it will save Proton and Proton will rise…
Bravo Proton X70 !
These three SUV models that have better rating than New Facelift Nissan X-Trail
– Proton X70, Mazda CX-5 and Toyota RAV4 have better performance, better equipment and features, better comfort and better safety
