Might be a winner only if it comes with Lotus tuned suspension, Volvo safety features and a decent Geely chassis / engine.ย

Get accredited and show the world that it's product is as safe as a Volvo.

Milo tin is not something that you want your car to be associated with.

When they make a car as good and cheap as a Kia Stinger GT, then they can talk.ย 

No need to be so high end as the Kia Stinger GT ba-their current X70 is good enough but still will have to depend on their selling price in ๐Ÿ‡ธ๐Ÿ‡ฌ as well.

Tax, Parf and Coe took up majority of the selling price

ย 

The price diff compare to a reasonable priced Korea car should be just few k. And ppl rather be seem in a Korea car than Malaysia car lo

ย 

Unless they have those 7 seaters 1.5l selling below 80kย

For Proton X70, it is likely to price around Altis.ย  How to sell?

Since a considerable portion of the price (i.e. COE) is a constant, Proton mightย have a hard timeย to acquire the market in S'pore. Anyway, the market in S'pore is not that interesting as well. If they can focus and sell averagely in bigger countries, the results would be more fruitful.ย

Proton can only survive in Msia because of local car tax breaks.

With Proton you hear all the excuses. We are a small company, we have a small local market, we don't have economies of scale, R&D cost a lot of money.

The excuse you never hear is we have lousy managers and lazy workers and we don't know what quality control is.

I always like to hear hard truths. I miss it.

I have seen more MG cars in Bangkok than Protons.

:grin:

A sign that M.I.C. rides are getting more recognition and X70 is a badge-engineered Geely Boyue...
