True 7/9-seat configuration ideal for large families or commercial use.
RWD, ladder-frame SUV with proven durability in Nepal conditions.
Lower entry price versus S11 while sharing core mechanicals.
Cons
Very basic interior with fabric seats and no touchscreen or modern infotainment.
No 4WD option, limiting off-road capability versus older Scorpios.
Only two airbags and no advanced safety or ADAS features.
Manual central locking and missing convenience features reduce perceived value.

Comprehensive ADAS plus 360-degree camera improves safety and convenience.
EPB with auto hold and 18-inch alloys deliver a more modern feel.

Warranty and after-sales coverage not clearly communicated in Nepal.
Proton brand recognition and resale may lag Japanese and Korean rivals.
