Base model acceptance is quite an odd thing. On one end, 50k of them like them enough to form a quirky Facebook group. Further down the gamut you have the hardcore kaki kecam who are frothing to give you an earful (eyeful?) if you so much as so dare to choose a lower-end German car.

Proton X70 This is reinforced even further when the X70 took home Midsize Crossover and SUVs 5-seater category, and the Overall Car of The Year 2019 at the 18th Malaysia Cars of the Year Awards (previously known as COTY).
