basically whoever buys the first gen is buying a beta test product and now they come out with a full equipped product + discount. when people say dont buy first gen product, it is exactly this is why.
@@feeltherose lol wtf are you talking about ? Are you saying if you need to buy a new car u must wait until they release a face-lift versions only you buy ? Then why not wait somemore until they release the next gen then ? Like that you wait forever loh
if there is no beta tester there is no 2nd gen, minor change , major change. because the company will close in first year already! you should thanks to them lor!
@@wanlagend256 let me get this straight, a company which is proton have geely backing which is one of the largest car manufacture, doesn't have enuff R&D for a mid luxury car that is copied from another car? u guys can be their white knight and all but come on... common sense? people pay good hard earned money for the first batch, and 2nd batch just crap them + discount. I mean, if we're a rich country. i guess? poor sob for the first gen tho, prolly still paying the loans and typing all these reply nonsense to cope.
what about the common issue that x50 always have? have they been fixed? like thier battery life issue, faulty alternator, broken gearbox, snapped timing belt, loose power window etc..
Most probably next 2 years, proton always have Minor Change/Micro Change to their models every 2 years. Then fully update the car every 6 years. Unless you are the X70 :(
This comes as no surprise, Proton has been selling old tech cars ever since it's inception. Good example is the CamPro engines, essentially taking a 90's engine with no updates or revisions and stuck it to a Persona in 2006. What's worse is, the price close to Japanese competitors WITH taxes even if Proton still the cheapest.
@@jonathanng8671 I own a persona before. Yes very cheap. So cheap it needs to change parts every year. the intake manifold changed 2 times in 3 years. Frequent engine oil leak.
Absolutely not. It feels exactly the same as before. If anything, it's a downgrade as the gearbox is rated for a lower max torque (but still well within the engine application here)
An upgraded X50 would still be nice in 2024, if only they made upgrades that people actually cared about. Smartphone integration, safety features on all variants etc. Improved NVH is nice, wish it was more significant on the wind noise. Also, whats up with the color selection. "We removed the orange option and replaced it with a big fat load of nothing", come on la, at least add black or just offer orange. Was considering it when the announcement dropped so its extra disappointing.
Agreed. I understand proton has to offer rahmah variants but ADAS should be in mid trims and at least let buyers choose the new colour options from X90 and S70. Those NVH and hardware updates should have gone to market in 2023. Might as well save the marketing budget for a proper facelift launch in a few months.
I test drove an X50 Flagship at a dealership this afternoon and I have to say the fittings were terrible 😮 almost everything I touched squeaks including the door handle, the center console handle, the sunroof open/close button. Please note that this was not a brand new X50, it’s one among the first batch of the model but should the interior show so much flaws after just 3 years? Having driven a 2019 Myvi for almost 5 years now - I don’t think so. I’m honestly asking if any X50 owners can confirm the build quality of their car’s interior to be bad over time or my experience is an isolated case or experience.
Probably no issue if you take care of the car and respect it. However i gotta admit that when an x50 or s70 pass by me. I can hear the knocking sound from the engine which sounded like diesel cars😂. Its normal but its something i noticed.
What's the point for big hoo-ha for? It's like blowing own trumpet to say look at me! Kudos to Hafriz for not sugar coating it. Please Paul Tan crew, be neutral if its need to be corrected say it, because it is good for the consumer. Paying for 100k not getting the ADAS? That is daylight robbery, if Proton taking us for granted, lets take our business elsewhere.
Was hoping for android auto with this update 😢 but. Overall upgrades are amazing. Hopefully the updated IHU across the range means they will be able to receive the promised OTA update to support ACP and AA in the future 🤞
ACP and AA will not be provided thru OTA update. It is confirmed by paultan. "Proton Apple CarPlay, Android Auto will only come on new model launches - existing cars will not support it"
At this point I feel like it better to get a bike in Malaysia, because of our high taxes on all even our local brands Proton and Perodua, not to mention the cars that Proton and Perodua are selling us are nothing but boring, bland and dull. That's is why I plan to move to Australia 🇦🇺 to work, buy a house there, and to get a better, cooler and normal to drive without paying so much for it, I understand people will say it sounds ridiculous true, that's true, but for me I would rather move to there where their AUD dollars are higher than our RM and I don't have to hear all our Malaysian Politicians talking all kind of nonsense to improve the country, when the reality there only care about getting the investments from the IMF and forcing Malaysians to pay so much for Taxes or SST, and next thing u know all the money will go to our corrupt politician including the KFC man and his witch wife. Anyone who reads this I hope u can see the reality and understand WTF is going on
Ok lah budget urban suv. Cuma kaler tu looks cheap, equipment button all over the places. Serabut. dah bawa beberapa kali tapi still tercari cari button
Its not really flagship though..proton were adamant this is just only minor/running change..the full facelift will come later after the launching of facelifted x70
In my opinion, the X50 still looks modern enough to survive for years to come. X70 however needed a proper facelift next time.
basically whoever buys the first gen is buying a beta test product and now they come out with a full equipped product + discount. when people say dont buy first gen product, it is exactly this is why.
Lol with mindset like yours then forever no need to buy car already the 'first' gen come out three years ago
@@axepro3053 i get it ur rich enuff to shill for a billion dollar company no need to brag

Stock clearance before incoming FL.
yea, depends on individuals whether they want a lower price of x50, or the new x50 with higher price later.
What’s FL?
@@nishaismail facelift
@Hanssolotrueganas mu
Which probably only come 3-4 years later.
This RC should've been launched in 2022 😂
the battery and altenator issue been settle ??? dun make ppl break down beside hignwah or trap in kampung dark road
Any indications when the proper facelift is coming out?
Should be next year
Most probably next 2 years, proton always have Minor Change/Micro Change to their models every 2 years. Then fully update the car every 6 years. Unless you are the X70 :(
i updated my atlas auto over the air and it cant even update to the newer version which is 1gb download. After downloading it auto restart 😅

Spare part cheap what, u see how many persona out there now

Japanese car😂😂😂, still living in the past.
@@jcl644 it's okay. Now we have Chinese cars 😀
For sure the update is not enough to keep up with competition but 7k discount might be.
Why don't they come up with an awd for the flagship version.
Hi When is the X70 Facelift released?
Such minor changes should've been introduced since last year. It would make people feel less frustrated about it.
Paultan tak nak bagi kete ni percuma ke kat saya ? Yg Executive wana kelabu sudah cun
Some other journalist stated that the DCT is difference too with much smoother gear chance , better acceleration, more efficiency. Is it true ?
Absolutely not. It feels exactly the same as before. If anything, it's a downgrade as the gearbox is rated for a lower max torque (but still well within the engine application here)
I thought they got change gearbox to 300 evo or they didn’t?
Yes they did, but there's practically no difference compared to the old car
Awww.. My family just receive our X50.. not even 1 week this come out.. Proton dont give free upgrade to X50 owner?
An upgraded X50 would still be nice in 2024, if only they made upgrades that people actually cared about.

Meaning you’re suitable to drive myvvi, only done take down the front and back cover , no collisions beam just plastic cover
For a car guy these really doesn’t matter much it’s really about the drive
Still no Android Auto or Apple Carplay.
Go to ah Beng accessories shop what OS oso they can put la, jail break ,lockup break oso can
Normal for me, before FL.... Clear stock
Have android auto car play?
No
Borderline shameful. Honesty is the best policy. 👌
Someone from Proton really thought this was worth an entire launch event... like wtf, hire me instead as the CMO
One objective.. Clear stock only la...
Proton2 … after this, mew FL with add on race stickers
Gear shift unit on X70 is still better than newer X90 and S70
What's new, android auto?
Mungkin hardware upgrade tu, untuk ready for android auto update nanti.
any issue since it's 3 cylinder? any real user can give feedback?
My own X50 has been fine, coming up to 4 years now.
Probably no issue if you take care of the car and respect it. However i gotta admit that when an x50 or s70 pass by me. I can hear the knocking sound from the engine which sounded like diesel cars😂. Its normal but its something i noticed.
Probably the most stupid and waste of money doing the launching etc.

none as announced just now
ACP and AA will not be provided thru OTA update. It is confirmed by paultan. "Proton Apple CarPlay, Android Auto will only come on new model launches - existing cars will not support it"
@@Maruchiru Just read the article too. Not gonna lie I am deeply disappointed.
The accessories shop can jail break or add dongle for AA or ACP
clear stock version...sapu sapuu
still no android auto and apple car play
She is beautiful! Don't plastic surgery her.

no wonder J7 is selling like hotcakes
dah kenapa vid distorted paultan oiiiiiiii sepet mata aku nengoknyaaaa
still no apple car play.
Ok lah budget urban suv. Cuma kaler tu looks cheap, equipment button all over the places. Serabut. dah bawa beberapa kali tapi still tercari cari button
They want to follow Porsche footsteps. It’s evolution and not revolution.
Proton really need to learn how to do updates and facelifts from pro scammer the H.
Wow
At this price I rather buy the tiggo 7 pro.
In summary = “Borderline shameful” #ProtonDoesNotExciteAnymore”
Funny why proton launched it😂
wow, what a lol.
Boo-hoo! I'd rather wait for the Nexis/Yaris cross launch in Malaysia instead
What's the whole point of this facelift then? Waste of time and resources. Lazy, just pure laziness.
Its not really flagship though..proton were adamant this is just only minor/running change..the full facelift will come later after the launching of facelifted x70
Ok lah same price get free upgrade mah, mine still got 3 more years to bayar, after that next gen come out can change already 😂
