One of the most highly-anticipated cars this year, the 2023 Proton X90 is confirmed to launch on 7-May 2023 at 3pm local time. Expect daily teasers of Proton’s first 7-seater SUV over the course of the next five days. The Proton X90 is available in 4 variants, all of which are powered by a mild-hybrid (MHEV) 3-cylinder turbocharged 1.5-litre engine with a 48V starter generator.

This is the 2023 Proton X90 in Malaysia, a name you will remember thanks to nearly two, three years of hype. Lots of on-paper promise behind it, but first impressions are that it’s a bit of a let-down on the road. Overview SUVs haven’t been much of a pain point for Proton.

The X90 debuts with the brand’s first-ever electrified powertrain, up to 14

According to sources familiar with the matter, Proton’s line-up could be filled with even more SUVs in the future, as the company is in the midst of trademarking names like Proton X80 and Proton X90.

Geely will be launching the Geely Jiaji, Geely Binrui, and Geely Haoyue in the Philippines according to a teaser their official website. The silhouettes shown on Geely Philippines' website are easy guesses as told from the distinct body style – an MPV (Jiaji), sedan (Binrui), and large SUV (Haoyue). These cars would allow Geely to cover different body segments in the Philippines and appeal to a wider customer group.

The Geely Haoyue is set to be the company's flagship 3-row SUV when it is launched in China, but could this serve as a flagship model for Proton as well? Dimensions - Just how big is the Haoyue again? Starting with dimensions, Geely cheekily mentioned that the Haoyue is a XXXL-sized (大大大空间) SUV. Not surprising, as it is 4,835 mm long, 1,900 mm wide, and 1,780 mm tall. The Haoyue's wheelbase is 2,815 mm. In fact, the Haoyue is even larger in size than the Hyundai Santa Fe!
