Proton SUV To Be CBU China, Arriving By September 2018

Proton top management team, led by CEO Dr Li Chunrong, has provided information that the new Proton SUV, based on the Geely Boyue, is on track to be introduced to the Malaysian market by late September to early October this year.

The management team shared the good news during a simple meet-and-greet session with the media after the opening ceremony of their first upgraded Proton 4S centre at Subang, Selangor.

Proton has also mentioned that the supply and sourcing of the new Proton SUV will be in two stages. The first batch of the new SUV will be imported from China and only to be assembled at the Tanjung Malim plant later in 2019.

Dr Li said this two-stage introduction was necessary as Proton was required to meet the government’s request of having the Proton SUV be introduced as soon as possible.
