come here the interesting bit

x50 claimed to do 7.9s to 100
x1 18i 9.6s
hrv 10.x s


see the difference ? and yet x50 cant pull away

one of the video show by bobby ang, the x50 take around 10s to reach 100 which is far from 7.9s dry.gif

From bobby video think it's 9.8sec.

Maybe they test turun bukit that's why can get 7.9s. Haha

Inconsistent results from all the other videos that I watched. Perhaps the driver could play a factor in some of the variables in the test results. After all they are all from the media & not professional drag racers I supposed. From paul tan video, bobby ang & few others seems like x50 pulls ahead. Don't take my word for it, you can watch it from the video from 2.09 onwards.

Inconsistent?
Sorry from all video I can watch , not even 1 video show x50 doing under 9second , all is 10 ish second I consider it to be very consistent liao

😂😂😂😂

that should cost some time

century sprint should be with single driver, up to temp. tyres, low fuel, hot and dry day, grippy tarmac

then only official time is good, like manufacturers' official fuel consumption figure
*
I suspect the 7.9s 0-100 km/h claim will be vanished soon icon_rolleyes.gif

Adaptive/intelligent cruise control all control your paddle electronically so if anything fails, you cannot start your car/move your car lah etc.

Which applies to expensive car too 😂
So they rather buy non-smart car or expensive car 🤔🤷🏼‍♂️
*
your cousin is BS ing you

From the old gen Saga, Gen 2 time, all proton already equip with electronic control paddle
no physical connection between paddle and the throttle itself

If i book least popular color, will i get the car faster?

NO,
plant already pre determine the paint they will spray on certain amount of car
if their projected match with actual situation, then your least chosen colour car have to wait even longer devil.gif

I see. But i heard that the production will follows the bookings. Not sure if it's true.

Nope ... those material already plan 1~2 month before launching
so no way they could fully adjusted to current booking sad.gif

so far proton will only be focus in producing Flagship , other variant have to wait longer

Yea it’s fishy and suspicious the way proton ‘claim’ so proudly but failed to demonstrate or rather an overstatement.

I can’t wait to get my car and do a sprint run without ‘launch control’ to see if it’s anywhere near 8 seconds
*
basically u cant do near 8 sec

in youtube there is some 8sec +- binyue but they were test near 0c ...

Tq for this feedback. I'm interested in this vehicle & started researching details before I plunge in. The info you put is certainly of concern!

I find the spec questionable. IMO I feel the vehicle has not got the power (177hp 256nm ) Proton claims. When it struggles against 140hp vehicles, I find this alarming. I dont believe the claimed FC. At the moment dont have any proof on this issue!
*
in some video it seem hrv even beaten the x50 ....

worst of all , Honda hrv and Bmw x1 use the same car while x50 change car twice still fail to secure 100% win doh.gif

Btw, why people say the launch will be delayed since emco? Tanjung Malim is not in red zone. Surely the venue will be in Proton Tanjung Malim right..
*
The original plan i heard is Pm8 should be the one who cut the red ribbon but he's now in quarantine ma... so delay

I think this is due to poor transmission design. Transmission on this vehicle is Geely inhouse design. It struggles against HRV with 40hp less!

Paul Tan claims 9s+ on sprint. I tend to believe this.
*
Paultan dont even dare to show video for it
9s ish can be achieve but not on noon
maybe on the morning 7/8/9 am , that time the weather is colder

Just for infor sharing about the City iMMD technology which is nothing new as Toyota Prius C already has this piece of tech way back in 2012. Think Honda is late to this tech.
*
Different devil.gif

Prius C have real transmission and the engine drive the car together with Motor

honda immd dont do that, the engine only powered the car if you drive more than 100
below that motor alone powering the car, engine just for charging

the rear door /seat of x50 have this particular shape that make harder for people to get out of the car
couple with a small door , this is a huge no no if you have elderly passenger

Paultan have one video pointed this out sad.gif
