Subang Jaya, 11 March 2026 – PROTON unveiled the 2026 PROTON X90, the latest evolution of the model, now enhanced with a new powertrain that further strengthens its performance and driving confidence.
Since its introduction in 2023, the PROTON X90 has achieved strong market acceptance with more than 10,000 units delivered nationwide, becoming a preferred choice for Malaysian families seeking a spacious and capable seven-seater SUV.
With the latest update, the PROTON X90 continues to build on its strengths of space, comfort and practicality while delivering a more refined driving experience for everyday journeys and long-distance travel.
The PROTON X90 is built on T.R.U.E pillars, representing the key attributes that define its performance, space, comfort and everyday assurance.
At the heart of the 2026 PROTON X90 is the i-GT 1.5-litre 4-cylinder turbocharged engine, paired with a 7-speed Dual Clutch Transmission, delivering 181 PS and 290 Nm of torque for smooth acceleration, confident overtaking and composed highway cruising.
Supported by a multi-link rear suspension, selectable drive and steering modes, and Electronic Parking Brake with Auto Brake Hold, the X90 delivers assured road manners while maintaining the ride comfort expected of a family SUV.
True 7-seater capability remains a defining strength of the PROTON X90. Designed with spacious three-row seating, the cabin comfortably accommodates growing families and their daily needs.
With up to 2,050 litres of luggage capacity, the X90 adapts seamlessly from school runs to festive balik kampung journeys, road trips and weekend adventures. Roof rails capable of supporting up to 75kg further extend its versatility.
Comfort remains a key highlight of the PROTON X90, with premium features designed to enhance both daily commutes and long-distance journeys.
These include Nappa leather seats, ventilated seats for the first and second rows, a 6-way driver power seat with lumbar support, a 4-way front passenger power seat with ‘Boss’ switch, dual-zone automatic air conditioning with air purifier, and dedicated air vents for second and third-row passengers.
The 12.3-inch infotainment system with Wireless Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™ further ensures seamless connectivity for drivers and passengers.
The PROTON X90 continues to prioritise everyday driving confidence with features such as a 360° HD Camera with 180° Transparent View, Tyre Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS), and six SRS airbags.
Additional conveniences including Walk Away Auto Lock, Follow Me Home lighting, rain-sensing wipers and multiple parking sensors further enhance practicality and ease of use in daily driving situations.
