The Proton X50 SUV has risen to the top of the B-segment SUV market. According to the latest press release issued by the domestic automaker, it delivered 1,756 units of the X50 in November, while the total deliveries since launch are of 2,203 units.
At launch, Proton said it was aiming to produce 8,000 units of the X50 in November and December 2020, but it is unclear if the goal can be reached. To address this, Proton Edar CEO Roslan Abdullah said: “It is true that deliveries of the Proton X50 have not increased to full capacity, but we are being deliberate in our approach to ensure that our customers get the best product that meets with your expectations. “
“Still, our goal is to increase our volume every month to shorten waiting times, so we urge everyone to be patient,” he added. By the end of October, Proton said it had collected nearly 28,000 reservations for the X50, 20,000 of which were made within the first two weeks since the order books opened.
In short, the X50 is priced at 79,200 RM for 1.5T Standard base, 84,800 RM for the Executive, 93,200 RM for the Premium and 103,300 RM for the flagship 1.5 TGDi. East Malaysian prices are RM2,000 higher across the board. These prices are on the road without insurance, including the maximum exemption from sales tax valid until December 31.
