As an owner of the executive variant, I would say that I'm delighted to have selected this variant as per what you've said, I've saved RM20k of my hard-earned money and gets a value for money suv/crossover..driving in a black themed dashboard is way more luxury looking compared to the red colored ones..As a casual driver, this variant is definitely the best to be chosen considering my hard-earned money can be spent elsewhere..All in all, this is the best suv I can have with my tight budget!
that's pretty good choice because this car is very good
True, executive spec is not a kosong spec and it is the best buy among all variants. And I preferred the old school analog meter compared to the LEDs. #teamexecutive
@@jasonmok6890 seeing the rev counter moves makes it more satisfying hahahaha
proud executive driver here... woot woot... initially im pretty sad because the app cant fully access if you driving exec variant..
but long after that.. im pretty 101% sure i choose the perfect car for me
@@gokusonic92 been driving my dad's executive and everything seems just about right
I like how we've took notes on each others' content idea and take on different approach on presentation. Kudos! 👍👍🤣🤣
My idol is here💖
Adrian, yes you were spot-on, this Executive variant definitely worth serious consideration! The black dashboard & seats are a winner. To me, I miss the 360 camera and maybe the roof rails!
I like your clear statement. Great. And mostly the sensibility in making choices. Keep up ur good work. Looking forward to more content like this. User friendly.👍
I'm having both, executive and flagship. Exec feels more comfort since its having high profile tires. Power is just enough even on hiway 150 feels like 110km/h. Sport mode will transform the drive totally.. Great car with this price. And Flagship, tgdi engine is more smoother and of corse more grunt. Its really like driving a conti hothatch with its agile and precise handling. Love the car 💖
Nice to see a new Proton model. It's been a long time since the brand was in the UK but good to find out what they are up to
Thanks for the review! really needed this.
Great review Adrian. A very nice car in Executive trim. Very stylish. A similar equipment level to my Hyundai Tucson but the Proton looks more sporty. :-)
Great job, Adrian.
Thanks Adrian for the review, I have booked X50 Executive and couldn't find reasonable reviews
Agreed, my friend and gf's brother both got this variant.
One thing the exec variant is missing is the accessibility to Proton Link which actually very helpful for the user. Other than that, i'm happy with my exec
I do have a small gripe with the X50 i see on the road especially at night. The turn signals, especially the ones on the taillights. The brake lights are bright which is a good thing but if you have either one of the turn signals on, the brake lights can overpowered the amber light.
Finally a review for Executive variant. Booked mine last year's November and still patiently waiting for it. Hopefully I will get mine soon !
I too have booked mine Executive variant in October last year.. Waiting for my turn
If you all still didn't get it, I really have no idea when is my turn as I just booked it early of this month.
@@fazliibrahim5946 👋 Bro, i booked mine early this month too😅
I just got this last two weeks after 1 year waiting. Booked this Dec 2020. Haha.
@@crixiey spec apa tu? kawan ofis saya pun setahun jugak tunggu, dia ambik flagship.
Hope wapcar can make video for most fuel efficiency car for 2021!
Waiting the right time to book this car. Executive will be my choice.
It just took few second to reach 100km/h from start. What I like most about this car, Its very smooth drive even the speed already above 160km/h.
Premium owner here. Before this I booked x50 executive but unfortunately during my booking need to change to premium due too long waiting time for this variant. Now I am using premium x50. Some features that I appreciate or cannot live without are 360 camera, electronic seat, and tire pressure monitoring. I supposed if you came from previous car that didn't have these techno, like me too, then I think u will like this exec
May I know how long it took for u to get your premium variant x50?
me personally prefer the executive interior it just feel more mature. the red on black interior to me feels just to busy and makes the cabin feels less airy.
Hey Adrian, nice review. You didnt test 0-100 on this variant? Im really curious.
Great reviews & informations.. TQ
Planning to get X50 flagship, but after listening and reading your comments, life experience feedback i am convinced firm the same just get this X50 Executive better
I just buy this proton x50 executive cant wait for nextweek tuesday all my hard working 10years before this own a car kancil and viva(second hand) now finallyy have this cute SUV my very first big thank u proton
Hey Adrian have you tested the latest Nissan 2022 Qashqai? So many amazing features and latest innovations. Like to know what you think of it.
Nice review Adrian, I also hav always think this variant is the sweet spot for X50. It's either this or go all the way to the top spec Flagship, the other 2 variants tbh are pointless. My 2 cents ...
Spot on
The executive is definitely the value buy. However, if your budget permits, for me the ADAS, 360 camera is really worth the price pump...
I'm very impressed this car even with the entry-level and executive variant but sadly i couldn't found this many of them on the road only I'm saw in dealerships my favourite x50 is all of them because i don't want talk to too much because this car is very good no matter how in trim levels
Thank you Adrian for the great info.. Actually I'm looking forward to get one.. Now I know which variant is worth for the money.
Nice video👍
The all black leather seats and interior look better and classier than the Premium and Flagship models. However, Proton should include the power windows to all windows, power seat to the drivers seat and add 18" tyres. The rest are not important but all the above are important to me.
Yeah.. and for long term maintenance and power output consistency, MPI might better. Maybe Geely engine is quite different, but most DI engine suffer carbon built up on the intakes valve due to 'dry air'. Owner need the perform cleaning by using walnut blasting method. I had experienced with Peugeot 1.6THP before. As for MPI the detergent inside the fuel can help cleaning the intake valves, thus no issue on long run (80000 km above).
So so true.
@@snmrz yup.. many people didn't think of this matter
Proton should make sunroof an optional package and not make it a compulsory accessory together with other ADAS, TGDI engine. Back in the day, I had an Elantra MD with sunroof leaking just a few months after collected the car from show room. Sent it back to SC, SA told me it was due to clogged drain, problems settled then after driving it for less than 3 months it leaked again, second time was due to hardened rubber. It is too much of a hassle to drive a car with sunroof, which is why i gave up ADAS and TGDI engine and go for X50 Premium.
Hi could you show us the reverse cam for executive version as I do have a big concern as my previous car does have 360 cam but if the reverse cam is good enough maybe I can just live with it. Thanks!
Please standard variant in next video..
I chose flagship cause was looking at c-segments before
I just thougt about this car today and puff..you made a video of it...u can read mind is it
If you come from Toyota or Honda, yes executive is value buy for you. But if you come from conti cars, premium is more value buy cos we know & appreciate the well worth upgrades.
How is the driving experience and the acceleration compare to peugeot 2008
What about engine start using the phone? (Available in Premium & Flagship). Is it just me or other people also thinking/using about that function?
can you do iriz 1.3 , persona 1.3 variant?
This executive model is the more balanced model of the X50 range. Sometimes less is more!
funny
Have anyone try Eco mode and what's the fuel consumptionon x50. Does it cost much lower or no difference?
Why not top up a bit and get the x70 standard, the NVH is one level above the x50. In terms of acceleration, both are quite similar though x70 could be more fuel consuming.
How About When Using USB can play continuously when starting or need press any button for playing USB music from start ?
After im watch this...im not regret anymore bout im buying x50 standard spec...my car still at showroom...
Planning to buy standard becoz i like fabric seat.. Haha
Adrian are u regret buying ativa but not executive ? And why
is there 4G internet connectivity for Executive? Can the navigation work without internet?
Actually for my plan to make booking is Executive.
After that only aware without blindspot… so decided to cancel end up choosing Ativa AV.
Coz myself driving on city, average speed 100km speed. So in more on i need is blindspot… so yeah.
If executive have at least blindspot and today I’m driving is x50…
Shocked that the engine of Proton X50 is so inefficient. The exhaust of my 2 month old Executive smells like that from a 6 year old MyVi. No wonder the fuel consumption is so high: 11 liter per 100 km, much higher than that of Mercedes A250!
Drives quite nicely. But after weeks of using, I still can't find a way around the car forcing the JOOX app on me every time I start it up. I just want to see the home screen or map, but no matter how many times I close it out, up pops JOOX again when I come back and start the car. If that's unavoidable, they must have paid Proton a lot for that.
Hi, I must have viewed more than half a dozen reviews on X50 of different variants that cover pretty much every feature there is of X50. But none of them talk about the front-seat headsets which dip forward at a sharp angle and cannot be adjusted to allow our head and neck to rest comfortably when we lean back on the seat.
Headsets or headrests are in fact HEAD-RESTRAINTS. They are NOT meant for resting one's head (i.e. for comfort which may result in one dozing off while driving for being too comfortable). They are designed to RESTRAIN one's head to prevent neck from suffering a whiplash when accidents happen.
All car manufacturers and reviewers should refer to this seat feature as such to convey its true purpose and accurate function.
How come M'sia don't bring in 1.0l Manual 6????
info screen ni blh tukar yg after market ke
my friend show off his executive a few months ago. brand new that time. nice but engine was very noisy like an old car.
I will wait for a facelift to have all the issues corrected, and choose only the mid spec. I personally dont think we need all those fanciful accessories on our daily driving, save some bucks and use it for meaningful investments.
Fuel efficient is 11.4L/100km that high?
standard version can go or not? cheaper still
But less safety features like autonomous braking
Having the car for a month I noticed that upon start sometimes the car vibrates violently for a second, i mean really violent not a simple vibration. I guess is the engine balancing trying to do is job on the unbalanced 3 piston....??
Disappointing 😞 if it's normal...
Couldn't agree with u more 👍🏻
I booked this one but tired of waiting then the sa told me that there’s premium available so i just grab the the premium one. But tbh i really prefer black dashboard
How long is the waiting time for the Flagship model?
@@Has7DCT fs or premium wouldn’t take too long i think 2/3 months. But executives you have to wait for 6 months at least
same here, I really wanted to take the premium variant but the red black dash really put me off
I own the executive variant, I was wondering if someone is having problems starting the car after been in the garage for more that 2 days, it won't start. The solution it's always start with the remote. Anyone?!
What about fuel consumption
Could any proton x50 executive owner care to comment about the sound system? I cannot find any details review about it.
If you can look past the fuel economy and questionable after sales service, this is an extremely great value buy.
The way you said it I guess you one one.hehe..I must admit that this car is not really fuel economy but that is why I have a second car from Perodua which saves me alot of fuel for daily routine driving..However I don't have much experience with poor after sales service yet..I've owned the x50 for only 9months & is on 11,000km drive..my younger brother drives the all new corolla cross which is obviously pricier than x50 but my parents kept on saying that my executive x50 is much more comfortable n looks better
@@mohamadazlan913 I guess they are just different categories, if you can afford a 130k car, you probably wouldn't want an 80k car even though it is better right? More expensive doesn't equal to better, it is simply how you value them.
@@wong924 "It is simply how you value them"...to me that answers everything no matter what one says..brilliant point u got there!👏
3 years warranty on gearbox makes me think twice.
When s50 and x80?
Please answer Adrian 🙏
Is the Honda city E spec a more practical buy then the X50 executive? Need some help on deciding.
Can I encourage u to test drive both the x50 n city back to back on the same day to get a feel of both cars... I did n I ended up buying the X50 Executive
Dude. One is compact suv and another one is practical sedan. For more practicality and spacious luggage of course City . But for current Trend.i must admit x50 is a looker. The design is quite nice
I went on a test drive with both of the cars and found that the city is more ergonomic overall. For the X50, I couldn’t really get a comfortable driving position and the seat wasn’t supportive enough. X50 might be more impressive on paper with its bells and whistles but the city has more attention to the details. A simple test drive will help with the decision
I love smaller rim
i got mine in premium spec
For u choosing ，this spec X50 or advance Spec ACTIVA?
no answer/recommendation?
Booked the executive variant...the only feature I want more in it is the 360 camera (for my wife)😄
Berapa lama waiting period?
@@TheMetiac Baru book 2 minggu lalu. SA bagitau 3-4 bulan
TGDI☑️✔️☑️
for our weather, prefer no sunroof, fabric seats. higher profile tires for comfort, safety and cost. only halogen very cheap maintenance rm 30 compare to rm 350. don't be idiot just to follow trend and look better. they even sometimes have FAKE pathetic exhaust to look better.
SUV berkepala sedan
Soundproof problem
I had sunroof with my X70. After 1 year ....no problems at all ...haha
Tgdi vs Mpi, which one is more noisy?
11.4L/100km.?? 😔
To me its simple. If all of the cars have the same engine performance, then get the cheapest
Different engine in flagship variant😂
If only ACC is standard across all variants like the civic.
Sure starting price 125k
@@LunarFlare91 x50 starting at 125k?? Even top spec x70 barely 125k..
I want ask where comfortable and value for money with maintenance low
X50
Ativa
Hrv old model
Can give me your opinion
Thanks
All the huha on the X50. But watch out on the spare parts n warranty claims. The absorbers also got no stock when it comes to claims. Got to wait 6 months. Already almost 2 months n still waiting. Very disappointed even though it is a small issue.😡😡😡 Imagine if it is a bigger issue.
Got mine replAced. There's a worldwide parts shortage. Yes of course there's a long long wait for the parts but it's kind of worth it
I had this as a rental when i was in Malaysia for 6 months so i have a prety good feeling with this car. Ok, cut to the case. Its BY FAR the worst car i have ever driven lol. The handling is an absolute joke. The interior is reasonably good, but the chairs are a joke. The ergonomic factor is alright. Its very noisy and the 1.5turbo is not smooth and picks up from 2700rpm. Below that, its just dead. The gearbox is like a 1980 DAF. 150HP, sure, it feels like 100HP. Shocks and is slow. Im sorry, but everybody who calls this car good or comfortable has never even driven a close to good car. Brands like Volkswagen, Toyota, Kia, Seat, Skoda are MILES ahead of this car. The gap is HUGE. Not even start about the brands like BMW or Mercedes-Benz. Even a 20 year old E class is 10x better then this car.
I use Premium version. Fuel cosumption average 9ltr/100 km.
May I know what mode are u driving? Eco, sporty or just normal? Have u ever try Eco mode?
@@aldenloo6424 - Eco mode . And I also adjust steering mode (EPS) to sport mode. Feel more confident and stable handling. Before 1000km the fuel consumption at 11.3ltr/100km. After 1st 1000km service ,the fuel consumption dropped to average 9ltr/100km till now.
Hello 0:19
🌿❣️🇧🇩❣️
Received my flagship X50 after waiting 11 months. Gear box actuator oil leaking after 2 months driving..
My case is 2nd case reported at the same 4S center.. 1st case taken 2 months to complete repair...
High spec car with lousy service..
Any owner who has the car since the launch would like to share the experience? Been considering this car but have known a few people who don't recommend this car. Most issues i hear are the cvt jerking and no spare parts
But x50 doesn't use cvt
@@pathfinder9461 my bad, not cvt but dct. But still I've known 2 person who complains of jerking transmission. When asked sc either it's made like that or don't know
Fuel consumption of 11.4L/100km? That is awful 😅
X50 is 1400 kg compared to honda city 1140kg and honda crv 1500kg. So don't expect low fuel consumption.
@@galaxymetta5974 the corolla cross is around the same weight as X50 but has significantly better fuel economy. I think that the X50 just wasn't built with FC in mind, more towards performance and some touches of luxury. And CR-V i believe also has better fc
Just checked, WapCar's same testing suggests Cr-v FC is around 7.3L/100km, almost 50% better than X50. I mean... 🤷♂️
@@ndt2046 cr-v and Toyota cross is more expensive than X50. You use the money you save from buying Toyota or Honda, then you can buy all the petrol you want plus some extra cash left.
@@skevin83 of course, i know that. My original point as you can see above is just that the fc is really bad that's all. Still a value buy because of local favourable tax system but a square is a square.
Kereta orang kaya
Agree with Adrian, after 6 months of ownership of the X50 Exec, my feedback is that it exceeded my expectations. Please note I drove a B7 Audi A4 before this and the X50 do have that continental feel
The funny thing was that the X50 was not on my shortlisted cars until I test driven it. For the money (rm84k), I would say it's impressive
The only issue with the X50 Executive is the wait time and the famous hissing sound from the window for all X50.
I had to wait for a year for mine
Dude... wow.. really? From an Audi to Tiger?
@@muhamadrosly4058 Yup, that's correct. The funny thing was that the X50 was not in my short list until I test driven it
@@br8dzilla same bro.. kudos 😂
How Malaysia have fallen. We are now excited about cars from China.
