KUALA LUMPUR: Malaysia`s national car, the Proton X70 is emerging as one of the leaders in Malaysia’s SUV market as it has broken all previous records for delivery numbers in its segment.

In a statement yesterday, Proton said it had sold 8,500 units of the Proton’s first sport utility vehicle (SUV), Proton X70 just 100 days after the SUV was launched.

“Proton X70 was the most popular model in January and February and it is on track to achieve the accolade for a third consecutive month.

“This proves that Malaysian car buyers have taken a liking to our first SUV, and we continue to be humbled by their support and are working hard to deliver more units as quickly as possible to reduce the waiting time,” said Proton chief executive officer Li Chunrong in the statement.
