QUOTE(berann @ Nov 2 2020, 10:03 PM) High demand due to the high specs/quality vs price. Proton should follow Mazda strategy with "higher quality & premium price" to upmarket their products. Should price the x50 20k more.. base with 99k & 123k for the flagship & may be increase x70 price 10k. Even if the flagship at 123k. i think will still sell like hotcakes considering the Hyundai Kona flagship , ch-r 140k+  pricing a "national brand" car which is wholly CKD at that price is no different then committing suicide  even at this price point, so many are complaining "it is expensive". |

QUOTE(sonotme @ Nov 3 2020, 11:51 AM) Agree. One of the reason why perodua is still top sales. Once D55 comes out, it will eat some of the X50 sales for sure.. definitely because after all the D55 is a "Daihatsu" so people won't complain too much. |

QUOTE(singk @ Nov 3 2020, 01:56 PM) looking at Geely Binyue pricing in RMB (sold in China) then you will able to get a feeling about the X50 pricing in comparison perspective. wasn't too sure what is the automotive pricing tax structure in MY vs in China though. i think someone mentioned about the pricing of the Binyue in RMB, it was supposed to be a dirt cheap car and even after direct conversion to MYR, it should not hit the price Proton launched it few days ago but I also remember watching a youtube review (i think from wapcar) on the Binyue in China, the X50 is very much more refined. so there's that. |

QUOTE(infernoaswen @ Nov 3 2020, 02:37 PM) Direct comparison doesn't work, many fail to understand the cost of producing 100,000 cars vs the cost of producing 1,000 cars would totally be different. China market is way larger than malaysia. finally someone that actually understand how economic of scale works was having a hard time discussing this with /ktards few days ago that i just gave up. |
