What happened

Proton launched the naturally aspirated S70 i-GT 1.5 sedan in two variants: Lite at RM56,800 and Prime at RM59,800, both inclusive of a RM3,000 launch rebate. The NA engine is the same 118hp 1.5 4-cylinder from the Saga MC3, paired with an 8-speed CVT torque converter, undercutting the turbocharged S70 range by RM9,000 to RM33,100.
