Hey everyone. Long time lurker on this thread and seen every X50 video (except the new 1 hr video from Hafriz).

Getting tired of waiting 2 months for the X50 dy.. and probably will need to wait 3-6 months. Plus SST gonna kick in soon. What do you guys think between X50 Flagship vs Honda Civic TC-P? I know there's a RM30k gap but if we put that aside, would you go for it? Considered the City V but I'm not impressed that they inherited old engine and didn't provide any ADAS at all in a 2020 model for RM90k. Hence thinking of switching over to Civic TCP.

Sorry if not right forum feel free to ignore. Look forward to any advice.

Please consider Subaru XV. I had few other ‘almost’ X5” owners cancelled booking and bought Subaru XV instead and so far not complaining

Maybe you can say some bad things about the Proton leaders, but they definitely know how to gamble.

Holding a pair of Twos and going All in with no move until Dec 29, I am impressed.

And all just minutes after I finished my cancellation later, at least not printed out yet.

So let´s continue our happy waiting.

Did the XV finally come with EyeSight as promised by TCM?
If not, don't waste your money.

SUV wise if you don't fancy the collision warning, XV is a good alternative, it drives better than X50 and much more easier to drive as well with very narrow turning radius.

only thing I don't like from the XV apart from eyesight is the lack of Android Auto & Carplay just like the X50, overall is a better quality ride & space compared to X50,
Power although not as strong as X50, but it is sufficient and good enough. Their AWD is no joke yo

speaking of XV and as u said that AWD... when the mileage hits... the service and maintenance for that AWD is gona cost a bomb

The only thing i dislike about Subaru is the warranty etc take care under Tan Chong Motor.

It is also severely underpowered for an AWD, which does not make it fun to drive.
Subaru is the market leader for AWD, but unless the XV is turbocharged, it will be a slow stable drive (boring).
EyeSight is more than just collision warning: http://www.subarueyesight.com

Let's not also forget the poor after sales service by TCM.

Their parts are quite reliable, their chain-driven CVT is top class durable compared to other CVT which is driven by belt, speaking of periodic maintenance just abang adik with X50 only..
About the power see which car you are comparing with, take out X50 and Hyundai Kona, the XV is actually sufficiently powered,
Severely underpowered is an overstatement.

After Sales Service wise is better than Proton most of the time, go take a look at Subaru thread, not much complaints compared to Proton probably because their market share is smaller so you don't bump in to long queue as well.

as there is more merit, surprised why nobody converting to XV lol

After all this xv thing, I do read on the xv car club. Surprisingly the xv with 2.0 boxer na suffer with not so great fc eventhough combo with cvt.

The only concern is the Tan Chong after service. Especially on the warranty claim
