I previously stated that my SA said the add-on is compulsory if I want to get the car this year.

However, SA updated today that it's confirmed optional. I think a lot of dealers got confused by the internal memo by Proton HQ laugh.gif

My SA also said it's optional but I took it anyway. I pick the 2nd cheaper option as I already have a Smart Tag and bought an RFID Self Install Tag. Besides, already save up so long so might as well.

I heard people say the tailgate can get 1k plus. I feel those optional package is for them to earn more commission..

A simple search in Google can show someone selling in Mudah. But it seem his post has been deleted. Good thing there's still webcache

GENUINE PART for Proton X50 Electric Auto Tailgate

Can also get at Aliexpress but the conversion of money and the waiting the shipment to arrive and then asking people to install it, not sure if I'm willing to go all that effort sweat.gif

Congratulation. There’s too many fb groups for x50 till i’m confused too. rclxub.gif
What color you took? Is the brake producing a lot of iron dust, like most of the proton models?
*
Passion Red. For the brake, so far I don't see it. Maybe becos I WFH at the moment so don't really go out much. Have to wait until CMCO is over.

when booking the time, you got firm that u only want passion red? or they call and ask you which color to choose?
just wana to make sure is it firm with 1 color easier and faster, as some even said when which color available then go for which color...
*
I gave option either Passion Red or Ocean Blue. The one in stock is Passion Red so I took it. And yes I took the optional package (I took the Utility)

hi, just wondering, that day I test drive flagship and found out that there will be alarm noise if drive above the highway speed limit, then I reconfirm this with my SA and he told me can't off this safety feature... and then i ask him what if i drive 120km/h all the way to Ipoh from KL, then the noise continuously because the highway speed limit is only 110km/h, he told me yes will have this noise....

so i wish to check with u all, anyone encounter this problem??
*
Yes, you can disable the highway speed limit. It's under the Setting Menu. You can check out the Proton X50 Quick Guide


https://mav2storage.blob.core.windows.net/g...Quick_Guide.pdf

It's under page 32 onwards. Didn't show specifically but the option is there.

funny thing was the SA confirmed that this cant be disable ! and then I say then I dont want to buy this car already... hahahaha
*
SA don’t know everything. Anyway, it’s under the Dashboard Menu. Go to Settings > Vehicle > OverSpeed Alarm. Here you could Enable/Disable it or set the Overspeed Threshold. I just set 120km/h cos you won’t notice you are that fast when you’re in Sport Mode

I think for Flagship, the main additional cost is sunroof and the safety features.

Actually for me the sunroof was totally useless in Malaysia as the weather always hot or rain....
*
I tend to disagree. At 1st I also assume the moonroof (because the roof covers from the driver seat at front to the passenger seat at the back) is useless. But my kids love it as evening/night can see the outside scene and my wife/ friends especially love it when it rain as can see the droplets of water sprinkled on the roof. During hot weather also is not a problem as I've tinted the moonroof so a nice view especially when you are the passenger, though afternoon it does get a bit hot so can always ask the moonroof shade to cover it. smile.gif

This is the list of SUV with Sunroof. X50 is the cheapest car with that feature.
