1.9m tall and can sit comfortably at the 3rd row seat?

Must be a PRC made measuring tape they been using, the kind that would read 9" when it is only 2"

if use same engine as x70, then forget it

i think with the 2 SUV.. is enough for now..

others still prefer sedan or hatchback..

x70 already big enough.. if want bigger..should consider another brand instead..
that depends on how big the families are..

not to mention if keep bringing in SUV..

proton will ignore ppl with lower income that cant afford a SUV..

This segment is a failing segment. No cars in this segment do well in our markets.

Yes. Those with this money would rather upgrade to luxury sedan or get alphard/velfire if they need people carriers.

IMO, if Proton wants to actually beat Toyota and Honda, they have to come up with proper B and C segment cars that can rival Civic, Altis, City and Vios. That segment has a huge customer base!

I own a kia sorento UM diesel 2017, from a suprima 2013. A car priced near 200k . If this comes to Malaysia, will give all 7 seater suv a run for its money. Will I change to x90. No. Engine too small. I get 400 nm torque with the diesel engine. The sorento at almost 2 tons with awd system is still a better package. I will consider the x90 successor though. If they increase the engine output and awd. Changed from suprima since it was too small as my family got bigger and it got stuck in mud requiring 2 hours worth of digging to remove front wheels. Once you go diesel, it is hard to go back to petrol. Few sen more expensive than Ron 95 but get way more mileage. FC about Honda City. My suprima has worse FC.

I put an android 10 " ice system which can support 360 degree camera feed. As far as I tell, only thing which I cannot upgrade is the ADAS. not that I care about ADAS. 360 nice to have.

Will the x90 sell? Yes. It will steal buyers from xtrail, sorento, santa fe etc. Is it late to the market? Yes, like 5 years late. I plan to use my sorento until it is too expensive or hassle to maintain.

If I didn't get the sorento, will I get the x90? Let's say it comes out at 160k. Sorento around 30k higher (going by X50 x70 vs competition). Engine, awd, diesel. Sorento is still better but after sales is a problem with naza selling it for now. If there is a awd version, then yes. I will pick the x90 awd version. I no longer want to be stuck in the mud. Now driving in heavy storm, also confident.
