    Proton is Malaysia’s national car manufacturer. Since 2017, Geely (a Chinese automotive group) has owned 49.9% of Proton. The Proton X50 uses the Geely BinYue platform. The Proton X70 is derived from the Geely Boyue. The Proton X90 is based on the Geely Xingyue L. Proton is a Malaysian company with Chinese technology ownership. The cars are sold as Proton vehicles, not as Geely.

    BYD, MG, Ora (GWM Funky Cat), Neta (Neta V), and Chery Omoda have official AP-holder distribution in Malaysia. All are sold in right-hand drive configuration. For showroom locations, visit each brand’s official Malaysian website or contact their authorised AP holder.

    Most Chinese EVs sold in Malaysia through authorised AP holders use Type 2 AC charging and CCS2 DC fast charging connectors, compatible with ChargEV stations operated by TNB. Confirm the connector standard for your specific model with the authorised dealer before purchase, as connector standards can vary by model variant.

    An Approved Permit (AP) is a licence issued by MITI (Ministry of International Trade and Industry) required for importing vehicles into Malaysia. Chinese car brands entering Malaysia must import through authorised AP holders. Buying from an AP holder ensures the vehicle is officially imported, has proper Malaysian specification, and qualifies for manufacturer warranty in Malaysia. Grey market imports without proper AP documentation may face JPJ registration difficulties.

    Yes. Sales and Service Tax (SST) applies to new vehicle purchases in Malaysia. The RM price quoted by authorised dealers should be SST-inclusive. Confirm whether any quoted price is SST-inclusive when getting a quote, and factor in JPJ road tax (based on engine cc), insurance, and registration fees for the full on-the-road cost.

    Proton X-series vehicles (X50, X70, X90) are sold as Proton vehicles with Proton warranty, serviced through Proton’s dealer network in Malaysia. The Geely technology connection does not mean warranty is serviced by Geely directly. Proton’s authorised service centres handle all warranty and service matters for Proton vehicles in Malaysia.
