Why Is Cabin Filter Important? Here’s WHY!

With global warming and air pollution cases rising, all need to consider the importance of a cleaner atmosphere to breathe.


Living in the city is chaotic and exposed to carbon emissions. There are plenty of stationary cars and motorbikes in traffic jams that emit toxic smoke, dust, and bacteria particles.

Driving in urban areas with your windows down or with the air recirculation mode off means you’re breathing in a high level of particulate pollution.


By filtering smoke particles, dust, bacteria, and other pollutants in the cabin, N95 Cabin Filters ensure that the air inside remains clean. Also, the Air Purifier System comes with an ioniser that emits negative ions to clean dust, allergens, and bacteria.

Did you know, National carmaker Proton was one of the first few companies in Malaysia to offer N95 cabin filters for its models?


The N95 carbon filter could also assist those driving on unpaved roads, whether in dry weather that releases plenty of dust that can easily enter your car.

Therefore, despite being closed off from the outside, the haze can still pollute the car's interior. Some of the surrounding air still makes its way inside, where it can affect your health.


Hence, Proton introduced the N95 cabin filters that care for its owners’ health. The N95 carbon filter removes 95 percent of particles and contaminants larger than 0.3 microns. Apart from that, 98 percent of PM2.5 dust particles also can be rid of!

Proton owners who wish to purchase the N95 Cabin Filter will cost them RM59. However, the Proton X70 N95 cabin filter is priced at RM79. If you all want to purchase, do get it from Proton authorised service centres nationwide.
