The special-built SUV was dressed in several customised design bits, including a unique two-tone brown and silver exterior hue.<img src="https://static-content-live.caricarz.com/media_library/post/18124/15546216/conversions/Proton-X90-Custom-TengkuLaksamanaSelangor-11-full_normal.jpg" style="width: 100%;" data-media-id="15546216" alt="Proton-X90-Custom-TengkuLaksamanaSelangor-11.jpg"><img src="https://static-content-live.caricarz.com/media_library/post/18124/15546218/conversions/Proton-X90-Custom-TengkuLaksamanaSelangor-4-full_normal.jpg" style="width: 50%;" data-media-id="15546218" alt="Proton-X90-Custom-TengkuLaksamanaSelangor-4.jpg"><img src="https://static-content-live.caricarz.com/media_library/post/18124/15546220/conversions/Proton-X90-Custom-TengkuLaksamanaSelangor-14-full_normal.jpg" style="width: 50%;" data-media-id="15546220" alt="Proton-X90-Custom-TengkuLaksamanaSelangor-14.jpg"> The silver hue adorns both the front hood and the roof part of the car, while the rest of the exterior is finished in the same Cinnamon Brown hue as the standard model. Besides the striking two-tone hue, the customised X90 also rides on custom wheels finished in a shiny silver hue, and there’s also the Proton ‘Harimau Malaya’ bonnet ornament on the front hood, with ‘Proton X90 Special Edition’ writing surrounding the ornament’s base.<img src="https://static-content-live.caricarz.com/media_library/post/18124/15546221/conversions/Proton-X90-Custom-TengkuLaksamanaSelangor-3-full_normal.jpg" style="width: 100%;" data-media-id="15546221" alt="Proton-X90-Custom-TengkuLaksamanaSelangor-3.jpg"><img src="https://static-content-live.caricarz.com/media_library/post/18124/15546222/conversions/Proton-X90-Custom-TengkuLaksamanaSelangor-12-full_normal.jpg" style="width: 50%;" data-media-id="15546222" alt="Proton-X90-Custom-TengkuLaksamanaSelangor-12.jpg"><img src="https://static-content-live.caricarz.com/media_library/post/18124/15546223/conversions/Proton-X90-Custom-TengkuLaksamanaSelangor-8-full_normal.jpg" style="width: 50%;" data-media-id="15546223" alt="Proton-X90-Custom-TengkuLaksamanaSelangor-8.jpg"> The customisation continues as we get inside this special X90, with the most striking bit being the red-and-white leather upholstery engulfing the entire cabin, accompanied by the walnut finish on the steering wheel. At the rear, the six-seater SUV comes equipped with fold-down tray tables for the second row, with cup holders integrated into them.Given its six-seater layout, we can presume that this customised X90 is based on the <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" href="https://www.carz.com.my/2024/03/review-proton-x90-flagship-the-perfect-budget-boss-ride" target="_blank">Flagship variant of the X90</a>. As Proton’s first new energy vehicle (NEV) model, the X90 harnesses a 1.5-litre 3-cyl turbocharged engine rated at 174 HP and 255 Nm, which has been mated to a 48-volt belt starter-generator mild hybrid (MHEV) system.<img src="https://static-content-live.caricarz.com/media_library/post/18124/15546263/conversions/Proton-X90-Custom-TengkuLaksamanaSelangor-13-full_normal.jpg" data-media-id="15546263" alt="Proton-X90-Custom-TengkuLaksamanaSelangor-13.jpg" style="width: 50%;"><img src="https://static-content-live.caricarz.com/media_library/post/18124/15546264/conversions/Proton-X90-Custom-TengkuLaksamanaSelangor-17-full_normal.jpg" style="width: 50%;" data-media-id="15546264" alt="Proton-X90-Custom-TengkuLaksamanaSelangor-17.jpg"> The standard Proton X90 Flagship currently retails at RM152,900, but we’d reckon this customised X90 will definitely cost more than its vanilla counterpart.<img src="https://static-content-live.caricarz.com/media_library/post/18124/15546261/conversions/Proton-X90-Custom-TengkuLaksamanaSelangor-7-full_normal.jpg" style="width: 50%;" data-media-id="15546261" alt="Proton-X90-Custom-TengkuLaksamanaSelangor-7.jpg"><img src="https://static-content-live.caricarz.com/media_library/post/18124/15546262/conversions/Proton-X90-Custom-TengkuLaksamanaSelangor-5-full_normal.jpg" style="width: 50%;" data-media-id="15546262" alt="Proton-X90-Custom-TengkuLaksamanaSelangor-5.jpg"> This X90 is definitely not the first customised Proton commissioned by Tengku Sulaiman, as his star-studded Proton collection also includes the likes of the Perdana, X70, X50, Satria Neo, and even the Putra coupe—all of which are customised to his specifications.

 Prof Dr Law Teik Hua of UPM’s Road Safety Research Centre has proposed that the government consider imposing<a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" href="https://www.carz.com.my/2025/06/jpj-will-audit-500-high-risk-bus-lorry-operators" target="_blank" style=""> higher taxes on heavy vehicles such as trucks and trailers, citing their significant role in damaging road infrastructure. </a><span style="font-size:12pt;font-family:Arial,sans-serif;color:#000000;background-color:transparent;font-weight:400;font-style:normal;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre;white-space:pre-wrap;"> <span style="font-size:12pt;font-family:Arial,sans-serif;color:#000000;background-color:transparent;font-weight:400;font-style:normal;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre;white-space:pre-wrap;"> <span style="font-size:12pt;font-family:Arial,sans-serif;color:#000000;background-color:transparent;font-weight:400;font-style:normal;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre;white-space:pre-wrap;">“The extra revenue could help ease the Works Ministry’s estimated RM4 billion annual road maintenance costs,” he stated in a FMT report.
However, Law stressed that such a policy must be backed by stronger enforcement, such as weigh-in-motion systems at key locations and safeguards to ensure the added tax burden doesn’t fall unfairly on end users.

Funds are distributed based on yearly national priorities,” he said.The JRTB, which links Gerik in Perak to Jeli in Kelantan, is a key federal road often affected by bad weather and heavy traffic.Roslan said any upcoming works would be carefully planned to avoid clashing with other ongoing projects in order to make every ringgit spent count making upgrades that will make a real difference.

To allow for maintenance, according to Loke,  only one train will run during off-peak hours (12am to 5am). Each Aerotrain features three carriages and can accommodate up to 270 passengers, ensuring smoother and more efficient movement between terminals.
