X70 first. That why u see on the media they run on road for testing

I see … I’m currently still driving Proton Saga SE which is more than 10 years old

Am currently thinking to choose between X50, Vios or City for next car

Not in rush though since I can wait and X50 is my preferred option, barring any unexpected developments or news

If you care about FC i.e. love boasting with ppl about how fuel save your car is, Vios and City are the one to go for

X50 excel in all other aspects miles away.

Edit: Oh ya if u care about boot space, City or Vios are better too

Out of curiosity since you are comparing with Sedan, why rule out S70?
*
actually I only got to know about S70 recently

so yea my current option is between S70 vs X50 now ..

S70 has sexy back design brows.gif quite like it

but I also wondering about any potential issue since it was just recently release

need to wait for few months to hear/read owners' feedback

I'm still hearing issues with 2023 X50 which is abit "frightening"

Yeah wait mayb 6 more months or 1 year to see feedback.

Powertrain wise like Engine and Gearbox should be pretty good, X50 since launched did not hear any premature failure for engine & GB

The minor one like wind noise also solved for X50 for the later batch.

So far my X50 till today no major issue, only have the wiper sensor not turning off which they eventually solved after tweaking.

hopefully the X50 facelift is coming soon together with AACP

that may change my decision .... icon_idea.gif

more to rebates. after a year on the road, Proton or Proton SA love give rebates for the car. so no harm to wait. Actually if u buy X90 or x50 now, can find SA that give rebates, x70 for sure more rebates. your pocket, your call.
my case last time, x70 premium x, sst at rm7k, SA add another rebates for rm4k. that why ended up with coating and ppf
*
rebate not so much of my concern

just dun wan buy a car then need to spend time keep going back to SC to fix issues

I'm still seeing ppl complaint about X50 ohmy.gif

Isn't the power tailgate pretty expensive too?
*
worth 3K per proton ..

but there's still a wide gap in price between S70 flagship vs X50 flagship

Last year Dec got 8k cash rebate plus free power tailgate from proton, plus other free accessories from SA. The cash discount was to compensate for year end car depreciation.

I see .. guess it's better to go S70 flagship instead and hope can get AACP as upgrade after that

if hacked version, x90, x70 (atlas & gkui), x50, s70 all already have AACP.

hacked version will void warranty right? need to restore before send in

how about during service? need to restore as well?
