if maintenance fee concern you, choose ativa

not really expensive but whatever adds on pero offer during service, just decline =x

X50 bad fc, wont comment about Ativa since i'm not join Ativa FB group

Proton FC is so horrible until I feel like ppl that sewel only buy ( except for saga )

i have both cars, but the answer is depending on what you use that car mostly for.
if city traffic - get the ativa.
if regularly long distance - the x50 (the seats are far far better)

in terms of reliability, both are good. they've never given me problems, at all.
cars are just tools. get the one that fits your use.

TBH, both cars are not expensive to own.
But if buyer is concerned about saving money, then avoid SUVs entirely.
The tyre costs itself will make you hurt.
Like I said above, cars are just tools. If you need an SUV, then you get one. If you dont, there are other options.

X50

Purely due to the driving dynamics n experience

Tekan sure vroom damn syok

Run over bumps also no rasa

Keep in mind high FC and exp tyres

But Myr still cheap fuel so yolo

Reconsider both choices if money is tight. SUV maintenance is higher than sedan car.

They are not sewel, they just not cheapskate like Perodua owner. They know what they paid for. They rather pay extra money for fuel than have to endure the feeling like 'naik sampan' at the highway or road with lots of corners.

I used to own both (MyVi & Persona) and have to travel almost 100-150km daily for my previous job, and seriously the fuel difference just around RM30 per month. But the comfort and handling of Proton over Perodua, even if the FC difference is RM100 per month i still willing to choose Proton. MyVi gave me body ache all over after just 2 months of travelling and the problem settled when i changed to Persona.
