Proton’s upcoming three-row SUV – popularly referred to as the X90 – has been spotted once again ahead of its expected launch this year. This time, paultan.org reader Kamweng Woon managed to capture not just the exterior of the camouflaged seven-seater, but also a little bit of the interior as well.
The X90 is based on the Geely Haoyue, which is also known as the Geely Okavango in certain markets like the Philippines. Based on the close-up shots, we can see that the Proton SUV will come with LED exterior lighting as well as 18-inch wheels paired with 225/55 profile tyres. The grille insert also features shiny pins.
Curiously, the trade plate has a cutout for what appears to be sensors that likely enables driver assistance systems like autonomous emergency braking and adaptive cruise control. These features aren’t available for the Philippines-spec Okavango but are available for the Haoyue in China, although the sensor panel is located in the lower intake.
As for the interior, the X90 looks pretty much identical to the Geely model it is based on. The design of the dashboard with its prominent air vents are clearly visible, as is the large central touchscreen beside a digital instrument cluster display.
The centre console is familiar too, matching the Haoyue that received slight update since its initial debut in 2020. The most noticeable change is the design of the gear lever, which is different from the one seen originally as well as what you’ll find in the latest X70 and X50.
Features that are apparent looking at the controls include three drive modes (Eco, Comfort and Sport), an electronic parking brake with auto brake hold, hill descent control and front parking sensors.
Under the bonnet, the X90 is said to get the Okavango’s mild hybrid powertrain rated at 190 PS and 300 Nm of torque. The setup consists of a 1.5 litre turbocharged three-cylinder petrol engine with a 48-volt mild hybrid system that features a belt-driven starter generator (BSG) – a seven-speed wet dual-clutch transmission drives the front wheels.
If this powertrain is used, the X90 will be Proton’s first model to come with mild hybrid power. For now, Proton has yet to confirm when the X90 will be making its launch debut but are you excited for it?

Multilink suspension at back , change form left hand drive to right , minor changes to body
Multilink is part of haoyue major update, not by local team
X70s local content reached 70% in 2022. I guess that sooner or later the X90 will have a similiar percentage of local content:

Apa nak diherankan dengan kereta tiruan dari china? Lepas tu dicap dengan brand sampah? Mana yang lebih bernilai, kereta tiruan nie atau sampah di tepi jalan? Ahaha. Dah lebih 30 tahun masih keluarkan kereta tiruan saja. Bodoh nak mampus.

Ye masuk di, proton dan perodua sama je . Dua dua tiru kereta lain .
Potong potong, no proton forever and no to proton all the same edgelord wannabe lmao
Doesn’t look like it is a flagship model. No auto-dimming rear view mirror.
Got manual dimming, don’t worry.
Too much electronic, too much problems later.
Bertimbunlah sampah atas jalanraya. Ahahaha! Brand sampah macam nie pun korang nak support. Ahahaha! Aku kalau B40 pun tak akan sentuh brand sampah nie! Aku sanggup naik bas atau kereta lembu aje dari mati dalam kereta brand sampah nie! Ahahahaha!
Famili awak pi beli guna Proton, awat tak cakap mrk beli sampah!
perodua SA detected, lame
Geng kereta tiruan brand sampah kena kritik sikit dah goyang ke? Ahahaha.
Its projects liked this that makes the gomen Bankrupt. Open up the market and make it a even playing field for other msnufacturers, then just collect taxes.
You should tell this the mainland chinese. They have hefty taxes on imported cars.
China car market is the most competitve in the world. Beating USA and UK. What ‘hefty tax’?
But its a nice sized mpv. Too bad no awd option.
No need to camouflage lah we all know it going to look like its geely counterpart with only a grill change.
Another junkie otw
Not bad for a rebadged China car/Volvo engine and platform. I suppose it could be worse if it is a home grown vehicle like the Saga! Go Harimau Malaysia!
fix ur existing cars first k
Waiting for the official price from Proton?
What do you think…
