Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between Proton X70 Executive and Premium?
Premium adds the full Level 2 ADAS suite (Autonomous Emergency Braking, Forward Collision Warning, Adaptive Cruise Control with Stop & Go, Intelligent Cruise Control, Lane Departure Warning/Prevention, Lane Centering Control, Traffic Sign Information, Intelligent High Beam Control, Lane Change Assist, Rear Cross Traffic Alert, Rear Collision Warning, Door Opening Warning and Tyre Pressure Monitoring), plus driver lumbar support, a 4-way power passenger seat with Boss switch, Nappa leather steering wheel, 72-colour rhythmic ambient lighting, security tint and front welcome lamps. Executive drops all ADAS features but keeps cruise control with a speed limiter, faux leather seats and 18-inch wheels — both variants share the 360° HD camera, power tailgate and front/rear parking sensors.
Does Proton X70 Executive have any driver-assist safety features?
Executive has 6 airbags, ABS, Electronic Stability Control, Traction Control, Hill Hold Assist, Hill Descent Control and the 360° HD camera with front and rear parking sensors as standard. It does not have the camera-based ADAS suite (AEB, ACC, LDW/LDP, blind-spot monitoring, etc.) — that is Premium-only.
Which Proton X70 variant has a reverse camera?
Neither variant has a separate reverse camera. Both Executive and Premium use a 360° HD camera system with a 180° transparent-view mode, which covers the reverse view plus surround visibility.
Does the Proton X70 have a panoramic sunroof?
No. The panoramic sunroof was removed from the X70 MC3 range — neither Executive nor Premium offers one.
What features are standard across all Proton X70 variants?
Both variants share the same 1.5L turbocharged engine, 7-speed wet dual-clutch transmission, 6 airbags, ABS/ESC/TCS, the 360° HD camera, front and rear parking sensors, 12.3-inch touchscreen with wireless Apple CarPlay/Android Auto, dual-zone air-conditioning with air purifier, ventilated front seats, power tailgate with hands-free opening and the same body dimensions.
Is Proton X70 Premium worth RM 10,000 more than Executive?
Premium is the only variant with the full ADAS suite and adaptive cruise control, plus comfort upgrades like Nappa leather steering, 72-colour ambient lighting, security tint, front welcome lamps, 19-inch wheels and a power passenger seat with Boss switch. If driver-assist safety tech matters to you, Premium is the clear choice; Executive suits buyers who want the X70 experience at the lowest price without paying for ADAS.
