As the nation continues to face the COVID-19 pandemic as we enter what hopes to be the final phase of the Conditional Movement Control Order (CMCO), the boffins at PROTON continue to innovate, with their customers remaining at the heart of all that they do. With many concerned regarding air quality and particulate filtration, it comes to no surprise that PROTON has met the challenge and has begun fitting all new X70 SUVs with N95-grade cabin air filters as standard.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The new system, called the PROTON Intelligent Air Purification System (P-IAPS) will be applied only to new X70s coming out of Tanjung Malim. However, existing X70 owners (CBU & CKD) can have the N95 cabin filters fitted at a PROTON service centre of choice as part of scheduled servicing, with the filter itself costing RM79 before labour & fitment charges. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cPROTON is constantly looking at ways to improve our offerings. The introduction of the N95 cabin filter is particularly relevant in today\u2019s global environment and by improving the quality of air in the cabin, we hope to deliver a comfortable contaminant-free experience to our customers.”<\/em><\/p>Dr. Li Chunron, Chief Executive Officer, PROTON<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The N95 cabin filters are technically capable of dealing with 95% of particles that measure more than 0.3-microns, and 98% of PM2.5 dust particulates. That means that smoke particles, dust, bacteria, and various other pollutants can be dealt with efficiently & quickly. Additionally, this filtration level is active regardless of the settings of your air-conditioning, so those who prefer fresh air intake and those who prefer recirculated air are equally well protected.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The P-IAPS system is more than just the cabin filter, however. The X70 has been available from launch with a High Efficiency Particulate Air Filter as standard, which is capable of dealing with 99.97% of all particulates that measure more than 0.3-microns. This also doubles up as an ioniser, discharging negative ions in the air and attracting positive ions into the filter, where activated carbon elements will remove odours, smoke, and formaldehyde. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

For those looking to have the new N95 cabin filter fitted to their X70, PROTON will be offering a 15% discount (RM67.15 after discount, excluding labour & fitment charges) beginning from May 18th all the way to August 18th 2020. Service appointments can be made starting from May the 13th.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At the moment, P-IAPS is only available on the X70 SUV. However, the CEO did say that this may not continue to be the case for long: <\/p>\n\n\n\n

“For now, P-IAPS will only be offered on the Proton X70 but our designers and engineers are working to fit the N95 cabin filter in our other models too.\u201d<\/em><\/p>Dr. Li Chunrong, Chief Executive Officer, PROTON<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n
