Proton X90 SUV launched, priced from RM123,800 to RM152,800 – 6 or 7 seats, 1.5L TGDi 48V mild-hybrid

Following its media preview in March and first drive last month, the Proton X90 is now officially on sale in Malaysia, having been launched earlier this evening by prime minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim.

Based on the Geely Haoyue, which is also known as the Geely Okavango in other markets such as the Philippines, the national automaker’s third X series model after the X70 and X50 arrives on the scene in four variant forms and with a choice of six- and seven-seat interior layouts.

The variants are the Standard, Executive, Premium and Flagship, and of these, three (Standard, Executive and Premium) are seven-seaters, featuring a 2-3-2 seven-seat configuration with a bench middle-row. The Flagship is the only six-seat version, and has a 2-2-2 six-seat layout with a pair of second-row captain seats, similar to the Exora Prime.

Proton X90 SUV launched, priced from RM123,800 to RM152,800 – 6 or 7 seats, 1.5L TGDi 48V mild-hybrid

We’ve detailed most of the X90 in our walk-around of it at the preview, but here’s a recap of what’s on the SUV, which goes up against three-row competitors such as the Mazda CX-8, Hyundai Santa Fe and Kia Sorento.

Here’s Haoyue look with a new grille

Measuring in at 4,835 mm long, 1,900 mm wide and 1,785 mm tall, the X90 is 316 mm longer and 69 mm wider than the X70, and its 2,815 mm wheelbase makes it 145 mm longer than that of the X70.

Given that it’s a rebadged Haoyue, the exterior doesn’t veer away much from the donor model, with the only discernible changes being a new grille, one with chrome pins expanding out from the Proton logo, and fog lamp surrounds finished in black instead of chrome as found on the Geely version.

The headlights are full LED units, but unlike the adaptive LED projector example as seen on the Haoyue/Okavango, are lower-spec full LED reflector units. The design features solid-type LED daytime running lights presented in an L shape – this doubles up as the turn signal, which light up in sequential fashion.

At the back, there are no changes from the donor vehicle. Incidentally, the X90 doesn’t get the new rear as seen on the refreshed Haoyue, but the wheels are from the update. The higher end X90 variants (Premium, Flagship) ride on two-tone machine finish 19-inch units, wrapped with 235/50 Continental EcoContact 6 rubbers. Meanwhile, the Standard and Executive variants are equipped with 18-inch wheels and 225/55 profile tyres.

Going mild-hybrid, and with a different rear suspension configuration

The X90 is powered by a 1.5 litre three-cylinder turbocharged GDI engine, similar to that on the X50 Flagship as well as the newer X70 models, but with the addition of a 48V mild-hybrid system, which integrates six key components – belt-starter generator (BSG), DC-DC converter, lithium-ion battery, battery management system, recuperation braking system and the hybrid module control system – into its workings.

The inclusion of the mild-hybrid system has bumped output numbers up, with the 190 PS and 300 Nm on tap being 13 PS and 45 Nm more than the 177 PS and 255 Nm on the 1.5 TGDI without the BSG. Aside from more power and torque, the company says that mild hybrid boosted powertrain improves standing start acceleration by up to 10%, passing acceleration by up to 15% and reduces CO2 emissions by up to 13% compared to the 1.5 litre engine in the base X70.

The mill – which is made in Proton’s Tanjung Malim engine assembly plant for the X70 MC – is paired with the automaker’s familiar seven-speed wet dual-clutch transmission, with power being sent to the front wheels. You’ll note “48V EMS” badges below the wing mirrors of the car – this is the branding identifier for the X90, and the EMS stands for electric motor synergy.

As has been mentioned previously, the Haoyue has a choice of two different rear suspensions, these being a torsion beam layout and an independent multi-link setup. On the X90, Proton has opted for the multi-link configuration, which it says offers improved drivability and comfort levels. Additionally, the automaker says it has tuned the suspension for Malaysian roads.

A well-presented interior, with plenty of kit and tech

As it is with the exterior, the interior from the Haoyue has been carried over, with just the switch to a right-hand drive layout and a Proton logo on the steering wheel boss cover the only changes. A quick mention of cargo space – there’s 257 litres with the third row seats up in place, and 2,050 litres with the second and third row seats folded down.

Standard equipment for the X90 includes fabric seats, a reverse camera and dual-zone air-conditioning. The SUV also features independent rear AC, with all rows on the SUV getting air vents (roof-mounted, on the second and third rows), as well as a G-Clean system, incorporating a N95 cabin filter and ioniser.

Also to be found is a full-width 10-inch digital instrument panel (from the Executive onwards; the Standard comes with an analogue meter cluster) and a 12.3-inch infotainment touchscreen with a 1920 x 720 pixel display resolution. Running on an ACO Tech ATLAS OS, the system features a higher-spec processor and has 6 GB of RAM as well as 64 GB of internal storage. There’s still no Apple CarPlay or Android Auto support though, so users will have to rely on ATLAS’ native maps for navigation.

As for charging points for mobile devices, all three rows get them, and there are seven in all, ranging from USB Type-A and Type-C connections to wireless charging (the latter, from the Premium on). As you’d expect, the wireless charger is located in front, and aside fro a pair of Type A ports below the AC controls, there’s a USB port hidden behind the rear view mirror to power dash cams. The middle row gets a Type A and a Type C port each, while the third row gets two Type A ports.

Convenience functions include proximity auto unlock, where the vehicle will sense the keyfob approaching and unlock the doors automatically, as well as walk-away auto lock, where the system will lock the doors once you move away from the vehicle.

The Executive variant adds on front ventilated seats, with the driver’s side being a six-way power adjustable unit. The upholstery gets bumped up to leatherette, an intelligent powered tailgate, a 360-degree camera with 3D display and a tyre pressure monitoring system.

The next step up is the Premium, which adds on the aforementioned 19-inch wheels and wireless mobile charging. The ADAS active safety suite introduces three new driver assist items in the form of rear cross traffic alert, rear collision warning and traffic sign information. The variant also adds on auto park assist and Nappa leather upholstery, while the front passenger seat is now a four-way power adjustable unit.

Aside from its unique seating layout in comparison to the rest of the X90 range, the six-seater Flagship adds on a large panoramic sunroof and a front passenger ‘Boss’ switch, which allows the seat to be moved forward to provide more in the way of legroom for the second row occupant seated behind it.

The second-row captain seats, which are essentially the front seats with the addition of MPV-style adjustable armrests, are also ventilated, bringing the total of ventilated seats to four on the Flagship. The seats can be manually adjusted fore and aft, and each seat can be individually reclined.

Colours and pricing

Six colour options are available for the X90, and these are Snow White, Armour Silver, Jet Grey (available for all four variants), Cinnamon Brown, Ruby Red (both available from the Executive on) and a new shade called Marine Blue, which is available only for the Premium and Flagship.

Finally, these are the prices of the 2023 Proton X90 variants (all on-the-road, without insurance):

  • Proton X90 1.5L Standard (seven-seater) – RM123,800
  • Proton X90 1.5L Executive (seven-seater) – RM130,800
  • Proton X90 1.5L Premium (seven-seater) – RM144,800

There’s also a five-year data connectivity package of 1GB a month for the car as well as interest rates from as low as 2.1% and various benefits available through the Proton insurance programme.

        I mean there is no argument that both of them are equally bad in this case.
        But I mean I do hope for more from a company which introduces ESC as standard few years ago to do more in active safety side when the main competitor is crushing them in this aspect. They did so well in passive safety that it is so disappointing to see them fail so miserably in active safety.

    The weight x70 (1675kg) / x90 (1740kg) = 4% difference in weight yet it is able to improves standing start acceleration by up to 10%, passing acceleration by up to 15% and reduces CO2 emissions by up to 13% compared to the 1.5 litre engine in the base X70.

    Now one will wonder why that x70 is so Heavy despite having no hybrid-battery and a considerable smaller car.

      Weight gain 80kg is still alot, can drink more fuel if comes with X70 powerful 1.8tgdi.

      48V also only a battery starter car?

    • Not the weight, but the 190hp (compared to X70’s 177hp) is the reason for improved acceleration.
      I wonder when the next “expert” will pop up, who claims, that acceleration is better due to the longer wheelbase.

    idk about you but if proton prices are already encroaching (and exceeding!!) foreign car prices, then is there really a need for proton to begin with? now i know there will be those that say “find a 6/7 seater suv priced below RM150k” and i say you are missing the plot. wasn’t the whole idea of proton and perodua to help bring affordable cars to the masses? but at this price, who is even buying this car? even the base model isn’t ‘affordable’. moreover, when this car was launched in china, it was priced from RM62k to RM84k (after conversion). so what gives? ok so if you say that proton had to invest in setting up their factory etc for this car’s ckd production, the same car is sold in the philippines for just a little over RM100k (after conversion). not impressed at all tbh. get rid of proton (and perodua) i say. let malaysians enjoy other marques besides proton and perodua. it’s so sad that so many of us simply have to settle for these two brands because the cars are too damn expensive. well that, and our salaries are a literal joke but that’s a conversation for a different forum.

    • “so what gives?”.

      Car production strives from large volumes. The larger the production volume, the more affordable a car can be.

      Back in 2020, a Japan imported RAV4 was more affordable than a locally assembled CRV in Langkawi.

      Malaysian could get more affordable cars if we only imported cars and didn’t impose hefty taxes on imported cars… but a local automotive manufacturing sector helps the economy, indirectly supporting Malaysians.

      However Geely Okavango is sold at ₱ 1,523,000 (RM122k) which is similar to our price noted that their are fully CBU however one need to take note that their version is with the cheaper Torsion Beam suspension while their top spec also do not have ADAS Lv.2 unlike ours.

      As for why we should produce our own even if pricey?
      Without local companies like Proton/Petronas, you wouldn’t even be able afford the lower imported prices.

    The base X90 definitely will cannabalise some top spec X70 sales.
    By topping up a bit ,instead of top spec X50..one may get the base X90 if size does matter to a big family,alto it may drink more petrol.
    In terms of mere size n seating capacity n pricing,it seems X90 beat the competition flat.Those contemplating big mpvs might save a bit by opting for this X90.
    So,the SUVs comprise 40% product range of P1 .
    P1 fanboys who do not want Suvs may have to wait a bit longer for the sedan n mpv new models.
    I m no fan of P1,but have to acknowledge P1 is capitalising on the rising SUV market.

    Proton no longer a car for the rakyat.
    More like dumping ground to recoup profit

    It’s proven with the amount of stock in the yard now at all Proton dealerships and Tg. Malim.
    Hope not to see another round of bulk purchase of these Xs to be gomen dept cars.

    Maintenance is high, spareparts incomplete with even crucial service parts out of stocks for months at a time.

    So many got cheated thinking buying a Rakyat car having higher specs with lower price but the fact is, you’re comparing with cars after high tax imposed.
    Try comparing them at their base prices.
    That’s why I say it’s overly marked up price for profit.

    • It does not matter. They can pretend any identity and try to give fair comment here. If you like a car and trust it is in fact a good car, not need to condemn other car to show your opinion is right. I agree with you. These people only afford to buy Proton but scare others will laugh at them. Therefore, they try to condemn Mazda cx8 to make a feeling that they are making the right decision, not because of they do not afford.

    • I beg to differ, I’m in CRV G5 group and they’re always make fun of X70 as their car always better, people will drooling seeing their car rather than a China car yada yada. They always say their car a class above and head turner on the road. It gives me cringe feeling to those community. I just about to study the car and own one. Seeing such mentality in those community, MY CRV G5 owner club to be exact, I don’t know what to think anymore. Why so insecure. Seriously pathetic lol

    • But after forming with Geely, looks better than old proton era. Now proton have improved a lot but only service cost not very cheap than japanese cars like honda & toyota but cheaper than mazda. Also rating time for spare parts is also easier as toyota & honda unlike mazda

  • Was thinking whether to get either X90 or Chery. I recently went to Malaysia autoshow, Chery is also good.

  • In my experience, Proton has provided excellent service as a car maintenance center in Malaysia. Their availability of parts allows for a smooth replacement of major car components during repairs, and their thorough checks during servicing ensure a comprehensive assessment of the vehicle’s condition. Additionally, their efficient handling of warranty claims is a valuable asset.

      Surely low lah.
      If it was great, based on previous experience… Proton would have declared it immediately. Tak boleh kalah attitude.

      They have truly underestimated the Rakyat’s IQ.
      For that price and profit margin, we might was well go for the new Nissan Serena with lower interest, bigger more comfortable, lower maintenance in the long run and definately higher resale value.

      • I think this model lower market demand become failed model , Alza waiting list 9m to 1y , with this price can by 2 unit of Perodua car (Ativa + Alza) DNGA …, Proton need to consider discount 15k to 20k ….to push out the stock qty , if not during 2024 still need to sell 2023 model…

    When paultan.org doing x90 premium test drive. Can try if a family have 2 car seats, how can they fetch a family of 5 + 2 grandparents. Based on my observations after i check the x90 at showroom, it end up like a sedan with bigger booot only.

    Geely should be allowed to sell direct its own cars in this country rather than partnering with proton and drb hicom so that geely can sell cheaper. Geely doesnot need to share profits with the other companies that causing the price reach end buyers double triple. Ordinary people also dont have to pay double with higher price >rm100k for bigger family cars. Selling cars online direct from china is better. Cut cost the showroom, offices, commissions etc. Also let the proton and drb develop and sell thier own car versions to compete with the other car companies in not negative ways. Otherwise proton existence will be numbered.
