The Proton X50 Exceeds Every Expectation

The Proton X50 Exceeds Every Expectation

This week, we debate the JPJ's decision to ban eScooters on public roads and revel in the positivity surrounding Peugeot's new sole distributors, Berjaya Auto Alliance. We talk about cars in Part 2 - more specifically, the good-looking 2020 Mercedes-Benz GLA and the Lexus LM350 - a million-Ringgit Toyota Alphard.

 

For our car review, Daniel reviews the Proton X50 and struggles to find fault with it. Being well-built and designed, packed to the brim with technology, and a lot of fun to drive, it's a Proton unlike any other - not least one that might convince Daniel to buy his first Proton in 31 years.
