Hi fellow LYN future X50 owners!

I have just did a complete, indepth all you need to know video (in bahasa) regarding to x50 maintenance and future repairs.

In the video i highlighted this key points

- cost and parts specification that needs to be replaced during the interval service and estimation of full service cost for 5 years/100k

- compare some differences between the specification of parts between x50 and geely coolray

- cost for wear and tear item such as battery, tyres, timing belts and carbon cleaning

- most important!, Cost estimation for major parts and components (turbo, gearbox, sensors, etc2) which is not in the wear n tear list, which u might need to replace incase of an accident or if your warranty has finished or void, or even if you get fedup with the parts waiting time..

I hope this video will be very beneficial for upcoming new owners of this X50 and those who are still considering of getting one soon.

Today, just tested the X50 flagship at Bayan Lepas, Penang.
I also confirmed my order for the flagship.

According to the SA, the center itself already achieve 200 confirmed ordered up to-date, for my order here expected around Mar-2021 for delivery date. (I booked on 19-Oct).

Not sure I should be worry, the auto parking does not work on this morning, seem like front sensors got issue. Seems Proton's quality for 1st batch is still not up to level.

On the positive side, the car is really fun to drive. Coming from old cars like Peugeot 2007, Myvi (1st gen), Honda City -VTEC with pedal shift; I would said it is very responsive and powerful.
Feeling is like driving a sport car performance (I only drove around 70 to 120km/h in a short range).

Then also drove the X70 for comparison, 1st impression, the front view seem lower than X50.
Maybe due X50 seat is being adjust to higher, the X70 also feel like seeing in wider angle.

On my noob driving comparison (around 70-100km/h), the sport mode on X70 is just like the X50 on normal mode. For ECO mode on X70, I have to agree it is abit sluggish, while X50 is still good for my comfort.
When come to X50 sport mode, it is damn fun with those raw power, I do feel more like driving a sport car kind of power.

Then on the comfort level, I don't significant better with X70 on city. Perhaps better when running on highway due to more solid and heavy car.
No doubt here X70 is a notch better NVH and interior look more classy than sporty X50.

On different perspective here, one distinct different for me is the braking, X50 is very responsive (braking according to how hard your foot pressing) and you don't really feel like any jerking alike or lagging alike here when compare to X70. While both braking is responsive, X70 is much more heavier, my psychology feeling  is the car is leaning forward when braking.
Besides the driving performance here, overall X50 flagship is my choice over X70 executive.
Power, safety and size are my major preferences here which X50 is better.
X70 do feel more executive car (like my old Peugeot vs. Honda City), interior is classy, but to me a bit boring for my preference.
Dual tone with the floating screen and simplify in buttons attracted me more and also the bucket seat does make your feel more secure during cornering.

Lastly, I think X50 on long term maintenance cost would be lower than X70 (at least on globally X50/Binyue/Coolray volume is higher than X70/Boyue).
However it is also half toward the Volvo XC40 maintenance cost 

It is getting too long here, thanks for reading.
Just my 2-cents.
