I suppose kena batu is one of the risk associated with sunroof. But I do prefer this sunroof. I honestly understand the reasons of not wanting it but in life.... there are ppl who do wish for such things. I can also bet there are ppl who wish to not have tpms, cause for 50 years of driving didn’t have one, no need nappa cause can save few more thousand, straight up just have 1.8 without turbo too..... save some”hassle” of “maintaining the complicated turbo”.

Heck y even go sooo atas...... do halogen bulb with ladder frame chassis ala avanza, some say will drop the total price by 20k lol.

Anyway, just placing sunroof on the top spec is a wise choice, cause, not all would afford or want it, but not to alienate those who want and are able to afford it. It’s not even the fancy panoramic ones the likes of Tesla......

Just like before x70 release, some ktard/paultan's comment people think it will sell at 70k...lol... < if 70K....aruz 50?, myvi 40? lolzzzz

I think x70 was best buck for more spec. it wont cut down spec to reduce price..

Proton is changing the impression of cheap car. Low quality. No QC. They need to start first. If they are able to sell out 100k cars. I believe consumer is morr acceptable on the lower price car. X50 at 80k or x30 at 60k price. Its about marketing strategy. Improve from the top.
*
Somehow agreed. Even on promo video side you can see it better then previous iriz video...
100k a year quite hard, so far 5k-6k per month.

X50 with 70-90k will be much better choice for most people who don't wan to pay 120k on X70.
X30 then I Don think so, because X70 was direct competing with forester, crv, etc.. X50 will be hrv, xv?.. X30 for brv? I call no for that.

Price wise I foresee it have very slightly reduction, but cover up with additional features etc. For 70k-90k is too much reduction, maybe that fall for x50 price region?
*
People just too naive to think the price can lowest possible.
Before X70 launched, some people make 'conclusion' it surely 70-80k full spec..... And me:???, then how proton own exora, Preve, persona sell... We yet to mention perodua's car LoL

Rm100k is reasonable for suv except fuel consumption.

Nope. For suv that segment, it's Fc was quite normal, just yet considering as 'good'

to be fair proton car also got shoot with tax by gomen, plus need to get MITI for approval. so potential owner hoping the car to be at 70-80k is too much for that car spec & features. Remember proton current gen perdana which is based on previous version accord also sold at 138k for 2.4 unit.

an old version based car, with only adding new china made HU. rest is same, except the cosmetic, also at that price.

so to assume x70 spec & features at current price is acceptable imo. or better wait for CKD with next version of 1.5T 3 Cylinder engine?
*
That's why I say naive. Hoping something 150k+- car spec only half of its price... Assume proton cut profit and make it 100k full spec (current highest spec, 2wd premium) - 80k basic(down scale with with from current price)
Then... How x50 fit in between? 55-70k? Aruz, Myvi, persona, iris all gg?
Or Myvi sell on 35-40 full spec.? LoL

All back to square one... Too naive, car pricing not work like that


Me waiting 1.5t 7dct too..... LoL

Well, they based it on geely Boyle price of rmb120k but I don't know what taxes for number plate etc...total otr price in china.
.
My friend say otr 160k rmb.....so max out rm90k? Right hand drive conversion plus tax rm30k?
*
Its not convert like that.
Example, Malaysia almera full spec 79k before discount.
China almera full spec about 80k rmb. Convert about 55k...

And Malaysia much lower spec and it still using 4at...

Just to update, I called their centre and manage to talk to the manager. He said to Whatsapp him so I did and asked him to kindly reply my email for acknowledment. Let's see if he does or his attitude the same as the salesperson i dealt with.
*
With the descriptions you make.
I think you meet problematic sales person and manager.
If you really going to buy X70. Try ask other branches sales person or manager, I think they will happy to take care your problem.

saw youtube review on 1.5T 3 cylinders engine, the vibration is noticeable on low rpm. so that is some drawback of it but with better fc vs 1.8T
*
I yet to research the 3 cylinder engine.
But what rpm for 'noticeable' vibration. Idle also called as low rpm.. Driving low rpm then different story then idle...

i dont mind as long as full of active safety systems and LKAS

same idea. LoL
If it vibrate on 1-2k rpm... Then mostly happen on idle.. Why so bother it if like the car XD

With correction, I think geely China already announced /release 3cylinder 1.5t for boyue last year Oct.
So we can expect that info was true.

On paper it may seem that way but if you looks at the comparison by paulbo tan and even real life look it would seem that the x70 boot is much smaller

The top pic is x70,  bottom left is crv and bottom right is Subaru XV

When talking about spaces, i guess no 1 can defeat CRV.

Dont compare price lar...

X70 win 9 road smoke free

If compare overall sure need count in the price.
Otherwise if look price only, axia, saga/Myvi better.
Or only look feature/performance, land cruiser, land rover better.

If no need see price. Why pick proton. Ist?

Hi X70 owners, does Android Auto work with this car? Can it load Waze using Android Auto?

I went to see the car the other day, the SA told me it can load Waze by Android Auto. But afterward I read the car review and not even one say Waze nor Android Auto can be run, but all is Oct/Nov review so I don't know if now Proton have updated the software.

If it can't, how about using screen mirroring function to show Waze? Or it's too laggy to be usable?
*
As far I know yet support android auto.
But proton say future will support, and also no confirm date.

That's a big turn off. If Geely want to force people using their built in map, likely will never see Android Auto. sad.gif

How about using screen mirroring function to show Waze? You use it before? Or it's too laggy to be usable?

I yet own the car as I waiting X70 1.5t or X50.
On test drive I make I didt test waze, the infotainment system not the fastest but also not the slowest, it still responsive then current Subaru forester infotament(press and swap)

I think depends on case for phone connect to radio since this suppose to be a function of the radio.

I check the photo for it's power windows button, even the most basic spec have same marking which I guess means have auto UP & Down

If it's true. A lot brand will get tapao as they still equip normal power window.

Now another point, does all power window with anticlipping feature (so arm/thing Don get stuck. I not sure how they all call it)
