First, you know how much tesla model 3 cost vs x50?
Second, how many so called level 5 autonomous tesla model s or model 3 crash into something(pillar, divider, truck etc... You name it). And x50 only level 2.
Third, you need to tell us your expectations on x50 L2 autonomous . So we can explain pro and con of it.


Personally i quite impress what radar based L2 can do than my imagine. But still need to hand on steering wheel and keep making correction.

The Engine oil provided by Proton X50 is a Shell branded 0W-20 grade oil (which I believe it's a similar Shell-HX8 type of oil but sold at a lowered price than RRP). However we need to note that our Proton Service maintenance book did mention the use of 5W-30 grade oil but since the Volvo XC40 T5 also uses a OW-20 here in Malaysia I supposed it will work for our engine too (also noting that Volvo Malaysia uses the Castrol Edge Professional 0W-20 oil of 5.6L vs our X50 Shell 0W-20 of 5L when Volvo's service interval is longer.

It is also good to know that the Geely Coolray sold in Philippines also states to use the 0W-20 grade oil at 10k intervals which have a similar weather to ours.

I have completed my 10k service which the oil has only run 9200km (considering I change a fresh new oil at 1000km) and noted that the oil changes from Golden colour to brownish with a few sediments and a reduction of approx. 0.5L of the total 5L oil. Personally after witnessing this which I drove lightly especially during MCO period, I will not keep the engine oil beyond the 10,000km mark anytime in the future unless one drive very less than it may be debatable.

What’s the longest distance you have put your x50 on it’s level 2?

Due to covid, i receive car only months.
And yet using on highway, only using L2 when cruising interstate.
10-15min on a section where doesnt have a lot junction and road mark clear.
Everyday passing there, but not everyday using L2 on that section.

Some owners in fb has updated Proton has changed the x50 engine oil from Shell 0w20 to now Petronas 5w30. Let's see in my next 20k service come Feb 2022.

As for me, i m surely impressed with the x50 L2 although i was sceptical initially. After using it for a while, m now pretty confident with it albeit only highway cruising.
The longest stretch was around 150km from Pg to Kl and vice versa.

Hmm, yes I did check it out that Proton did announce brand new Proton Genuine Oil back in Q4 2021 of 5W-30 grade in 5L bottle (which basically is for the 1.5T engine only).

I kinda enjoy using using the current Shell 0W-20 oil which I managed to achieve steady fuel consumption around 6.6-6.8L/100km including long distance drive (once best I was able to get 6.5L/100km). Like you my next service will be 20000km too but I can't say I am excited to use the new heavier grade oil which sold for the exact same price as the thinner oil which is usually more expensive. (but if the Shell 0W-20 is indeed the rebranded HX8 with specification of GF5, this new Petronas with a GF6A should be of a higher quality).

Well lets test it out for our new car and the judge but likely I will go back to the 0-20W after the warranty is over.

All Honda cars nowadays required 0w20 eo. I find that good for fc at highway

Yo guys, I just got my x50 flagship on Christmas Eve. Went up to penang for the new year week. Filled up full tank at Georgetown and after 5 days of city drive, tank was blinking. Is this normal? At about 20l/100km, it’s a lil bit too high no? I’m getting 250km max on a full tank of city drive (on eco mode) ????!!


Anybody else experiencing this? It’s crazy high yo.. I think can challenge F1 FC at this rate zzz

normal

Thats freaking high holyshit

when i 1st collect x50 also like this...after 1st and second service getting improve.

and i heavy foot

welcome to turbo engine.

that meter is not accurate; its actually much HIGHER

Hahaha, quite normal. It very thirsty tho with turbo suv. Welcome to the club. 😉

Question, between the range topping X50 and the range topping City RS Hybrid, what decisions made you to own the X50?

I am in the same dilemma as well. Looking for a new car maybe half a year from now

Can safe fuel but at constant highway speed. That the cons having small displacement turbo engine. Some manufacturers combo it with CVT to get a bettee fc.

lol the highest 19.9 that the meter can shown
You are considering City RS Hybrid meaning that you are concerning about FC, go for City RS Hybrid for sure
