2020 Proton X50 1.5TGDi Full Review in Malaysia, It’s Great but What About Its FLAWS?! | WapCar

[@LugiaMCG]

this is the review we've all been waiting for.

[@AndrewKNI]

Great review Adrian. The X50 looks so stylish. Laughed when you mentioned Matt Watson's Carwow "stick of truth" :-) Looks like the X50 needs more powerful struts for the tailgate. My Tucson tailgate rises easily. Keep up the fantastic work.

[@DylanCalvin]

loving the review, and the background music is perfect in this video, not too loud

[@manveentoor5609]

Tennis ball measurement is genius. Subscribed!

Great work Adrian. All content , no BS. IMHO you are the the most comprehensive car reviewer in Malaysia.

[@WapCar]

Thank you!

[@Don_Tyco]

agreeed too

[@Kovacs.x]

A very well spoken, unbiased review.

[@vastaxx]

Hi Adrian, very detailed review. Just a feedback, could you test the audio systems and it's quality as well in your reviews? Thanks.

[@WapCar]

Sure, will take note in future reviews!

Ive watched countless X50 review videos, but i find this is the best..

[@shazlansyah2380]

Dude this is the great review among other car review. Keep up the good wapcar..

[@doitmyself6377]

Hello WapCar, I saw an article on the web about how to care for DCT in Proton X50. I quote below. Looks like this came from Proton. Do you have an official source for this from Proton? "During prolonged standstill, it is recommended to shift to ‘Neutral’ position for safety (accidental release of the brake pedal) as well as to prolong the lifespan of engine and transmission roll mountings. Furthermore, there is a safety function whereby the engagement of Auto Brake Hold will be automatically shifted to Electric Parking Brake after 10 minutes of standstill. This is to prevent the brake system from overheating"

[@eutube90]

Thanks for not being bias and ride on the how great x50 is hype.

[@piskel2003]

I guess no other KZbinrs ever mention about side mirror problem. I still can see like 50% of the car body on the driver's side mirror. Perhaps the engineers forgot to adjust side mirror alignment from right driving to left driving.

[@ohkered]

this is actually consider safety hazard

[@Albion80s]

A very serious road safety issue that the Ministry of Transport should take action if Proton doesn't make a recall.

[@Jeremyevo90]

Paultan did. They did mention more flaws compared to WAP ........

Very detailed and honest review. Thanks

[@zafranshamsudin9231]

Rear bench looks really short.. can u compare it to the rivals such as the hr-v? Interested to know

[@mahchunteng9434]

All of the x50 seat is short , I'm 180cm I don't find any support for my tight , be it front or rear

[@WapCar]

It's shorter, the HR-V have more supportive seats

[@wbtoo6945]

only Adrian's review mentioned about Thigh support, this is most important & essential stuff that cannot be seen in brochure. Regardless of how good your design & features, if sacrifice comfort in long run. It is a problem to the driver or passengers.

[@kcc6608]

Excellent Review! Without Fear or Favour! Both Positives n Negatives of the X50 covered! Well Done!

[@ffh2303]

In terms of handling and body control, how does the X50 compare to the Mazda CX-3? Is it far off?

[@wansyamil92]

Mazda and Subaru better on ride and handling..

[@WapCar]

CX-3 is much more planted and rewarding to drive. But loses out to the X50 on ride comfort

[@sgt.paperchannel8827]

Hello bro, help me decide bro. Im choosing between proton x50 and Honda city rs. Which is better between the two cars if we are talking of value for money and practicality? Thanks, More power to your channel. Nice review. 😊👍

[@khairulfaiz146]

waiting for this comparism too

[@Crasher_7]

Any chance for long term review? Like one year ownership comment etc...

[@WapCar]

Of course!

[@selespeed3]

i really like the inside layout. the best i have seen among the peers out there. and the outside is attractive too. rich features for the amount of money you pay. but a wait time of 6 months is just too long. absurd. also, what is the reliability after 3 months of using?

[@glentheseira308]

Hi Adrian, another well done review for this car !! kudos to you for your detailed homework before the video presentation !! Keep safe and bye ...Oh happy belated New Year to you and your team !.

[@WapCar]

Thank you!

[@glentheseira308]

@@WapCar most welcome great presentation!

[@jasonwong1358]

Flaws is the fuel efficiency and second hand market and after warranty parts availability

[@AyieJosh]

this is a very good review and very thorough. explained goods and quirks of x50 that some might find it helpful and informative. if i had money i would buy tesla car for full autonomous driving. imagine what i can do in the mean time. lol

[@hsienjin88]

Bro, u forgot about the side mirror. Driver side mirror is meant for left hand drive. And the 360 camera is not as clear as x70

[@masterj0j0j0]

Hi Adrian, agreed with your comment on the thigh support on the driver seat.. Do you have any solution to recommend?

[@Albion80s]

Right side mirror is a MAJOR ROAD SAFETY issue. A complaint should be lodged with the Ministry of Transport if Proton doesn't fix it.

[@luqmanhamdan7621]

Now that you mentioned Mat from Carwow, would certainly like to watch him reviewing this car. 😂

[@flamingfox2366]

Great review! For around RM100k, family car would be the Xpander with ample amounts of space while the fun car with lots of features would definitely be the X50.

[@nashrulaqil4365]

That's true if you really need 7 seater & a lot of space. For small family x50 is fantastic in my opinion.

[@sputnikfreshie3601]

Xpander have really bad safety features. For a modern car, 2 airbags is not acceptable. For a family car, safety must come 1st. Aruz, rush or any modern sedan cars like almera city vios would be a better option.

[@adamme-8513]

I m all about the details100000x. Damn u always delivered that tagline👍🏾😬 Always look forward for wapcar videos. Gd job Adrian

[@AdrianChiaa]

Thank you!

[@transformersteam9425]

Thanks for the review Adrian, by looking at this recent review I noticed that the fuel consumption is 10.2L/100 km. Which the figures different from the previous acclaimed figures. May I know, is this suv considered as EEV vehicle then??? Kindly, advise.... 🙄

[@WapCar]

Lab-tested vs real-world testing, the results don't always tally. And yes, the X50 is EEV accredited

[@galaxymetta5974]

X50 is 1.4 tons, around the same with Jetta. So the city consumption is around that. Only at highway speed my Jetta get 15km per l. If want better fuel economy, go for activa which weigh 1 ton and give 18lkm per l.

[@lokekaryew8408]

Love your review. Excellent efforts 👍

[@edmondVerboseLogging]

10:03 can't you adjust it to the back more? and maybe you can adjust the steering telescopically if it is too far reach after you adjust seat backward. Another things is perhaps you should wait for CMCO to over and test it on genting road, because since it launch until today, none of the youtuber test it on genting road yet...well, I mean to make it stand out from other's video. We don't how it perform on genting road until today.

[@mohdk2299]

It could stretch his legs more & would be uncomfortable. Also CMCO is ending & cross state is allowed.

[@edmondVerboseLogging]

@@mohdk2299 seems like need to personally go to showroom to check out ourselves

[@edmondVerboseLogging]

Just when to check out the car today, the seat doesn't have so much gap between my tigh and seat , only a bit bit gap, if u backward the seat a bit and adjust the steering to suit ur arm length, then it should be fine. Btw, I'm just 175cm tall

[@WapCar]

Seat is adjusted to Adrian's proper driving position to be able to apply full force to the brake pedals. You can check out the proper seating position by our professional advanced driving instructors here kzbin.info/www/bejne/iKnQlHp8ac9pisU

[@nizanramly8196]

Great review. The small details that matter.

[@JC-hn5qx]

I think there's mistake on the power output and torque *177ps@5500 rpm 255Nm @ 1500 rpm

[@izzmalaysia8007]

HAIYAA!!! You saying, “Hi Proton, roll down all windows”, made my flagship X50 roll down all the windows!! This while driving in federal highway lehh. Also, i love the semi-autonomous driving. A godsent when travelling long distance or in traffic jam. It drives and stop in the jam for you! About the thigh support, you are right! But i worked around it by crossing my legs while the car drives it self, making it so comfortable. Worth the money. My 1st proton, from BMW.

[@WapCar]

😂

[@usoppumerumo]

bro so true about them not just adding the power boot feature. I mean its still ok if they expect people to pay for it if they purchase premium and below, but for FS spec, come on man.. still want to squeeze money ah.. not to mention the lack of pedal shifters! Inspira, Preve, suprima all had it, why the hell not x50??

[@darrenong6585]

Yes I do agreed the power tailgate for 3K is ridiculous expensive & the spare parts for X50 is very expensive & always not ready stock!!! Good luck to the new buyer!!!

[@HuntaKiller91]

I guess ur really the most suitable X50 reviewer since the previous geely was also being tested by u and made vid on it 11:56 Hopefully the exora replacement model/geely ones will be given this insight aswell

Put tower under thigh or modify the seat bracket to make front a bit higher

[@tctham]

This problem is not present in proton proton cars. Car seat design thoughts different between geely and proton.

[@izzmalaysia8007]

I worked around it by crossing my legs/ bersila , make for more comfortable ride. Use the autonomous driving of course.

Which has better speakers and sound quality ? Civic or x50?

[@LOL-pn7gh]

LOL, never expect Honda and Mazda will come with good speakers.

[@WapCar]

Err.... Both are equal 😶

[@Naokaaa]

The position you are driving in I would say it's quite close to the steering, but I would like the seat to be adjustable so that it would fit all since all people have different hand and leg length ratio lol.

[@WapCar]

It's the correct driving position endorsed by professional advanced driving instructors 😃

@@pangpang7202 proton already trying settle parts waiting problem. Don't bring it to long. I think it is the service center problem because there is case that after the owner complain it to the higher management they solve it the next day. And proton management are currently really looking forward to improve their after sales service.
