The All-New Proton X50 Has Been Revealed. Time To Get A Used One?

The All-New Proton X50 Has Been Revealed. Time To Get A Used One?

After a long wait, Proton has finally revealed the All-New X50, and while most eyeballs are surely glued to this new variant, should you consider the older model if you’re in the market for a used car in this segment? Daniel Fernandez from dsf.my shares his thoughts on whether this is a good strategy, and what you should be mindful of when making the decision, as always.

But before we get to that, we discuss the happenings in the automotive industry, including a new Santa Fe from Hyundai, and a new colour and minor software upgrades for the Proton e.MAS 7. Globally, Huawei has started work on a new battery technology that can potentially be a game changer, while Ferrari replaces their iconic Roma with a sleek and seductive looking Amalfi.

In our discussion segment, we talk about EV chargers and whether they should be built on public parking spaces.
