anyone choosing this over HRV?

so far for me, X70 (executive) seems to be have more powerful engine (but sacrifice fuel consumption), spacious, LED and leather seat. anything else?

for the executive variant buyer, do you feel left out with the additional features offered from premium variant?

If you made a careful consideration and decided that the difference of almost 13k ringgit was too much to pay, then there's no need to feel anything negative.
It's a choice you made.

i was trying to justify should i go for the additional cost on premium.
so just want to get opinions from others.

for the ADAS, currently my vehicle does not come with it and driving fine all this while, so think may not need

Nappa leather wise, since executive variant already comes with leatherette seats (not sure leather type is PU or otherwise) is sufficient.

sensor tailgate is also quite gimmicky for me.

there a few things

there is 2 executive models 2wd and the awd. The awd got phased out due to unpopularity, that said it did have 2 things the 2wd executive didn't, which is AWD and the tire pressure monitoring system.

Too bad about the missing tpms, but awd not so much.

Then after that, compare the 2wd executive to the premium
I used this to create a table to show a side by side comparison, so you can see what features are missing
https://www.carbase.my/car-comparison?id=Mn...K3X7,KpoxBIdMq4,
https://www.zigwheels.my/car-news/proton-x7...iants-explained
Blind Spot Info System

Autonomous Braking System

Lane-keeping Assist

Collision Warning

Tyre Pressure Monitoring System

the switch for passenger to adjust the car seat

19" (executive comes with 18" tires )

the new 2020 premium has a Space Grey option

Brown Nappa Leather (executive uses Black Leatherette, aka fake leather)
https://www.cars.com/articles/what-are-the-...-1420690420494/
can open/close tailgate using feet (when i tried on executive 2wd, i couldn't)

tailgate will auto stop if it senses being blocked (tested on executive 2wd, it didn't stop)

9 Kenwood Speakers and Power Amplifier, Subwoofer (executive comes with 8 Speakers no name OEMs. But that said, others said the kenwoods were nothing great either, so doesn't sound like your missing much?)
Then premium u got 2 kinds. Premium, and premium x. the later basically the same, just with the roof (which in Malaysia is no lose, since it's hot, then you got to tint roof.... not worth the trouble)
even this uncle said go for basic or executive, and he should be more knowledgable. but this is probly a old video, cause he may be talking about the 2018 x70

then there is the 2018 vs 2020 X70. I believe the former was made in China, whereas the 2020 is made in Malaysia (from the newly opened factory). This reviewer points out the key differences between the 2 in much more detail

for that synthetic black leather , any idea how to maintain it?
my current vechicle is just fabric seat, not much experience on this.

i waited 4 months though.

maybe longer due to lock down , if can wait, then wait lo since lockdown no need travel much also.
if no, then go for CX5 or tiguan. Honda personally not my preference so i wont suggest CRV
