Remember the early 2000s when Nissan in Malaysia could go toe-to-toe with the kings of the era like Toyota and Honda?

Now that the locally assembled (CKD) Proton X70 is finally here, you must be thinking: RM 122k for a C-segment SUV complete with panoramic sunroof? Now that’s affordable! But wait, is the affordably priced X70 the most practical option? The similarly priced Honda HR-V begs to differ.
