Instead, it is available as an integrated styling package for an additional RM1,999 over the standard Flagship variant.

The front seats feature Sport Edition embroidery, while the floor area receives exclusive trim finishes, TPE floor mats and Sport Edition metal door scuff plates.

According to Proton, all of these enhancements have undergone more than 13,700 hours of testing, covering durability, corrosion resistance, UV resistance and suitability for Malaysia’s tropical climate.

Flagship Performance Remains Unchanged

Through the PROTON Link 2.0 mobile application, owners can remotely access various vehicle functions using their smartphones.
