This is a review of the new 2025 PROTON X50 compact SUV. This was recently launched here in Malaysia and is the facelift of what is currently the most popular B segment Sports Utility Vehicle (SUV) in Malaysia. It features a redesigned front and rear end, a redesigned interior with a very large, now HD infotainment screen with a new dashboard design. Most importantly is a new 1.5liter turbo petrol 4 cylinder engine replacing the old 3 cylinder one. The new engine runs through a 7 speed dual clutch transmission to the front wheels and it quite a nippy little SUV. Here, we take it from the Klang Valley to the streets of Melaka, and back.
Watch the video to see what we think about this popular SUV during the road trip.
