If Proton smart, they will honour the price for 2020 booking even if delivery after this yearend.

Oh wait.. dealers and branches no longer under Proton Holdings?

Wapcar teasing most of the time I feel syok sendiri based on own assumption without sources,
like for X50 they are the one predicting Malaysia will get 1.4T engine rather than the 1.5T MPI once China announce the FL

Some article they came out like say comparison of 0-100km/h is totally based on spec sheet, stating the obvious.

But they do have some decent review with data on some case like testing NVH/space and stuff that I like.

Agreed.

Adrian provides rather fair comparison between brands, in this case clearly indicating X50 and D55L are in different range. However Hans keep insisting D55L pricing definitely will overlap X50 so yeah, a mix bag of staff in Wapcar.

Anyone got do a comparison of the launch Exec X50 vs the latest upgraded Exec X50? How are they able to offer a significantly upgraded car, at the same price point? Note the Exec X50 launch price was RM84.5k and the latest upgraded version also costs around there with the launch rebate.

How often to change car battery?

I bought in Oct 2021, changed once in August 2023, and now Proton say I need to change again.

no standard guideline for that, as long as you feel it weak, you change it. or result will be stranded somewhere.

my previous battery running with charging 13.x. after lunch cant start cant even open the door. need to use physical key. while the key encased in aluminum case need looking for screw driver
if you got dashcam running parking mode, it kick in voltage low shutdown too fast, battery dying.
so now i dont see voltage alone, warranty 18 month? i change it on 2yr. worry free.

What car is yours? High electrical components?
Also alternator may sometimes overcharge and shorten battery lifespan. Else some electrical issues.

During my younger days, car batteries usually last for years. Some still do but you have mechanics and shops propagating 2 years as the max with cheap useless brands

Edit: dashcam parking mode increases the charging cycle but shouldn't shorten lifespan significantly, I think. Need to ask in Dashcam thread
