The Mercedes-AMG range has always been iconic for its insanely powerful models that never make sense on paper but always caresses the heart. Today, Mercedes-Benz Malaysia has updated that line-up with a refresh of the 2023 Mercedes-AMG CLA 45 S 4Matic+. While Mercedes-Benz is a serial killer for the term “coupe,” the 4-door CLA 45 S is a compelling argument for dismissal of the case.

It’s a landmark occasion for Proton as the carmaker celebrates producing the 10,000th unit of its famed GEP3 (Global Engine Petrol 3) 1.5 TGDI engine at its Tanjung Malim plant on 1 December 2022. Further adding to the milestone is the fact that this figure was achieved in just 7 months, having started in April 2022.

The Proton X70 is a spacious SUV that will accommodate 5 adults comfortably. Rear legroom is generous with 35 cm (equivalent to 3 tennis balls) of space when adjusted for a 175 cm tall adult at the rear and front.
