Proton launches WhatsApp chatbot for 2020 X70 SUV

Proton launches WhatsApp chatbot for 2020 X70 SUV

If you’re among the few who were thinking of purchasing the 2020 Proton X70, but find yourself putting those plans on hold due to the movement control order (MCO) advisory, then why not put in the time to learn more about the SUV?

To help you get better acquainted with the X70, Proton has launched a new interactive chatbot on WhatsApp, which it says will help educate people on the details, promotions, and features of the SUV. Think of it as a digital sales advisor, a place where you can also obtain more information on the four locally-assembled variants that are on sale.

All you have to do is click here, then press “Send” when prompted. You’ll be automatically redirected to the chatbot, where you can learn about the car, price and specifications, sales promo, trade-in offers, as well as Proton Financing.

Now, before you get all chatty, the WhatsApp chatbot doesn’t respond to random questions, and it certainly won’t engage in a full-fledged conversation about your life. Instead, its replies are automated, which means all you have to do is just send your queries or replies in the form of numbers.

Meanwhile, you can learn all about the 2020 Proton X70 in our detailed spec-by-spec breakdown, and read/watch our review to find out if the CKD SUV is better than before. In fact, feel free to visit any of the following links, because now’s the best time to be doing some extra reading, don’t you agree?

      What’s the use of chatbot if Proton’s Game Over service center itself will always say:”this is a Proton, what do you expect?”. We will be getting this Game Over automatic message anyway

      Bad joke from a Honda salesman. Is that how you tell your customers when their car breaks down? I can see why Honda sales dropped from 2st to 4th in just a year.

      Make sure you don’t ask the chatbot to help tow your Civic.

    • Ben, i know you sincerely want to cheer us during this MCO’s period with a joke. But seriously that’s bad, 2 out of 10 joke rating, so 90s win98 era. Try harder next time!
