Speaks good English and pronounces very well. Great intonation as well... Well done GC. And the team at Autobuzz. Even the video editing is very professionally done...
Very impressive car, changed my perception of the brand. Geely totally revolutionise Proton, injecting Volvo technology. And this is probably the best Malaysian car reviewer I've come across!
Thankfully it’s GC Mah presenting this epic vehicle every Malaysian has been waiting for! His explanation is very direct & easy to understand and his Malay interjection is most welcome. Good job mate 👍🏻 P/S: when you say drive fast, how fast is fast? And does this mean that the car isn’t ideal for long distance driving? Hope can get clarification 😁
Love AutoBuzz review. Just and knowledgeable reviews on the cars. Unlike some other reviewers that criticise to show their shallowness. Keep up the good work team AutoBuzz
GC even if the X50 was priced the same as all the same segment SUVs, I still think the X50 is the clear winner regardless of badge, pricing, nationalism or brand association
Actually the old days proton rebadged from mitsubishi were quite well accepted (wira, perdana, saga), but when it comes to the inspira i think mainly because the lancer is selling along side in Malaysia at the same time, so many people will see it as copy cat product. Until today they are still tons of people do not know about rebadge exercise in automotive industry. Since the Geely Boyue and Binyue are not avaialble in Malaysia, most malaysian do not know these car are rebadge from Geely. Sure, all the tech savvy guy and car enthusiast on the internet knows about this, but the "General" people outside has no clue or no interest in knowing these at all. They see nice car, they like. They see same car with different logo, copy cat product. Sad but true.
Nissan, renault, and mitsubishi. Always rebadge they car too. This called cooperation . Renault have share in nissan. And mitsubishi have share in nissan . Even toyota and daihatsu have similar cooperation . Is normal in car industry
since Proton is planning to launch his car in Pakistan also, i watched your review and bro you do awesome reviews informative and entertaining...10/10 from my side !
first time im watching your review, very commendable description of the car with some tasteful jokes placed through out, ill be looking forward to seeing more of your reviews in the future.
@@terryfu830 cool! Good that you have tried it already. If we buy this Proton X50 use with Petronas Primax 97 with Pro-Race, its gonna be damn nice not only with the turbo function.
the Geely Proton badge swap works this time because these are new models, not old end of life models like the Inspira/Lancer, Accord/Perdana, etc. and because Geely itself is not selling directly in the market vis-a-vis Mitsubishi and Honda.
Really love your presentation and acting, it's the best of the best car review that I've watched so many years, even better than Tai Choo Yee ( he is good too but too tension and serious feel). Wish to see you put more effort in Mandarin and keep it on.😁😁
kelisa over 10 yrs old already, of course it will vibrate. the X50 has got all sort of new tech to overcome the vibration. but i would like to see how it’ll be like after a few years, even with all that tech at the end of the day it’s still a 3 cyl.
Thank you for the comprehensive sharing. Wow! Very insightful. Great job Bro! If the price is 30k more than now.. well I would prefer to go for imported car.
Agree with GC Mah on the conclusion. If you seek "substance" in your drive (especially at higher speeds), this is not the car for you. The one I tested had very disturbing wind noise at the A-pillar area past 120km/h. The body roll is also very significant in sharp corners, not confidence inspiring. Otherwise, driven at normal speeds, the car is very well packaged and value-for-money.
I think it's due to the combination of rebadged model execution plus the price tag. Previous rebadged cars of Proton tend to make the car feels somewhat a lower grade iteration of the original car due to the built quality and discounted features. And this is because of the Proton's strategy where they focused on them as being a cheaper option as their selling point. Current Proton cars, albeit rebadged ones, barely discounts any features from the original model, except for the price, and they make sure whatever the competitors are offering, they could offer for a lower price, sometimes better in terms of quality/execution. And this somewhat cancels out the perception of Proton being that cheap car for those with no budget, to a bang for buck car with features and quality you could previously only find in a car at least 50k more expensive.
I think it’s because of the moneys worth for the features and specs we are getting...that’s why we are singing praises instead of criticising despite the rebadge.
This car looks tempting in Malaysia because of the taxes. NAP artificially inflate the prices of cars that made the X50 and X70 look like a bargain when in reality, Malaysians are still buying substandard cars at overpriced tag.
Exactly. Don't think it's right for him to say it's cheap while Malaysians have been paying way too much for cars all these while. In fact, why not match the price China is selling this since Proton is a domestic brand? 🤭
@@fuzaitux Perhaps if we adopt left hand drive where the car can be wholly imported from China. Thing is you guys dont understand the basics of economies of scale, we dont have the market volume like China for Geely or Proton to be able to sell at their price and still make profits. When we have a billion population perhaps we can start barking louder, for now, lets just say we should consider ourselves lucky that we dont need to see the Juara, Tiara or Savvy nonsense that comes out of Tg Malim.
@@Jamesdevil it's not about economies of scale here. If Proton is allowed to sell Geely made cars at an inflated price, while charging exorbitant duties on other foreign brands, it's just bad for average consumers like us. I don't see the justification why X50 should still sell at higher price while Honda or Toyota sells almost the same price at the same segment class? So we're only left with either Perodua or Proton's lower segment cars. Btw, X50 is still manufactured as left handed car but switched to right handed in Malaysia under CKD.
i think as u saw in the video is a good one. for starter If u think myvi is too basic xD. but most importantly is to choose a suitable gas cause that is the one that you will be paying monthly too
@@historiariley1562 truee. haha bcs im still surveying over two brands now bcs one the petrol pump is very near to my house. not sure if I'm gonna use that one or continue on searching
@@selenakesom9988 i think i would suggest u to use shell since it's very good in terms of saving your money and their petrol is very good for engines to absorb
@@historiariley1562 yess!! ive heard about it. because I tried to compare with others and I'm gonna start with shell first. and see if i could adapt with my budget. plus the petrol pump is very near to my house.. it will be easy
Because of the built quality and the reasonable price range. X70 and X50 have definitely increase the competitivenes of our local brand, despite it is just being a rebadge model.
Im jealous with this proton version since this is named as geely coolray sport in the Philippines and it lacks the voice command, ac vents at the back and auto rear open.
GC Mah arguably the best English reviewer in Malaysia. Love his local languages interjection.
Speaks good English and pronounces very well. Great intonation as well... Well done GC. And the team at Autobuzz. Even the video editing is very professionally done...
Hype should sound Hee - ep or Hai-epp . Hyundai Hee yundai or Hai yundai ?
@@Scooterdad72 thanks for the motivation and inspiration to the team!
absolutely 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
unlike some robotic speakers out there that sounded with the same tonality.
Hands down, the best automotive reviewer in our Malaysia.
Words are clear, information are sufficient and still informative.
Thank you for your review
there's also some appropriate and nice placed jokes !
Very impressive car, changed my perception of the brand. Geely totally revolutionise Proton, injecting Volvo technology. And this is probably the best Malaysian car reviewer I've come across!
Proton as reborn car maker they have improve tremendously. Now only if their service centers can do the same and shed the tidak apa attitude of old.
Because big shareholder kick out those lazyboners good for nothing management.
Personally i think the price and design plays a huge role here. Hence the success.
And tax advantage over other brands..
Really? Its a handsome car...i think if same price with HRV..it would also out sell Honda.
Plus, at the same price tag. This car feels so much more premium than it's competitor in the same segment
Thankfully it’s GC Mah presenting this epic vehicle every Malaysian has been waiting for! His explanation is very direct & easy to understand and his Malay interjection is most welcome. Good job mate 👍🏻
P/S: when you say drive fast, how fast is fast? And does this mean that the car isn’t ideal for long distance driving? Hope can get clarification 😁
This is a great video, the best video review for x50 i think. Yes a very well priced. Hope it will be reliable until loan finish haha
One of the most entertaining reviewer I've seen in a while. Very handsome too! Good job Autobuzz!!!
Been okay with Proton rebadging since early days, just in matter of price and material quality. Important factor for me as a buyer personally.
Love AutoBuzz review. Just and knowledgeable reviews on the cars. Unlike some other reviewers that criticise to show their shallowness. Keep up the good work team AutoBuzz
Love from Pakistan. Rwally impressive stuff from our Malaysian brothers. Waiting for this x50 here. Subscribed!!!
Is the car available there now?
@@Bo-ox8ji no bro. We aren't even getting the already booked x70 and Proton Saga cars because of lochdown in Malaysia
@@JustRandomThings oh okie... hope its worth waiting😊
@@Bo-ox8ji yup, they are better priced than other competitors but personally, i am waiting for x50. Love the styling of that
@KhartikeyenSath no its not
I like GC throwing the questions at the end of the video... 😜
GC even if the X50 was priced the same as all the same segment SUVs, I still think the X50 is the clear winner regardless of badge, pricing, nationalism or brand association
"In the middle, Thundercat logo" HAHA! Damn, I'm old
Scene tak boleh blah, buka tutup pintu berulang kali.
"Huaaahhhh...solid!"
means it is a good car...lol
Typical malaysian, another one "ketuk2" body to know the car were hard enough or not...funny
2:29 yeah it is absolutely a ThunderCat (TC) logo!
Hear that Proton! You've got a new nickname - ThunderCat
Thanks for the review gc, i was waiting for ur review since x50, officially launch, 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Wa nak order satu jugak bro hehehe 🤭😎
@4:48 yes that is the right price. Just that other manufacturers are not giving quality materials.
And Proton were not giving good quality back then.
I specifically love the last two minutes nice talk ...GC
Reasonable price, v all those power and torque, features, looks n driving experience, it's really worth the money
For me I think Proton has come so far and this x series actually can compete the other brand like Toyota even Honda

both the video and GC Mah are so good to watch... i watched full. great work and wonderful car
GC and EU JIN, do a little drag between this and the big brother x70!! 😅
The best presenter available in the whole of Malaysia..and it’s due to price, design as well as the strong association with Geely & Volvo….:)
For me personally I prefer X70. For 100k its better to go for the executive variant X70 instead of the flagship variant X50.
X70’s front is ugly and X50’s rear is ugly. How ah? Cars in front of u can see your front so X50 for me.
Most creative n fun reviewer
For once, the Trapo mats seems better suited than the stock haha
Yes that’s true legit plug , weed and pills
Super review and super X50. If only Proton would re-introduce their models in the UK. SUVs sell well here.
Now this is how you do car review!
i see autobuzz car review i give like, i see GC Mah i give double like (i wish i could :P)!
Very indept review. Enjoyed it. Hope proton can solve long waiting period after booking. heard some ppl waiting 4-6 months for their car
Nice review might buy one because of the bow and thundercat logo😂 Jokes aside this car is well rounded as a family daily
Wanted to watch, and I see this guy. Never mind.
Good Review, excellent video. Please do more GC your reviews are totally another level higher.
Well executed presentation! GC Mah is funny and witty.
best car review in Malaysia i have ever seen
instead of "hi proton" they should've gone for the "hey proton" , sounds more compatible 🤣
I second that.
How about “Eh Proton”. More localised 😂
Oit Proton
Woi proton!
6:00 what has been seen, cannot be unseen liao.... thanks Autobuzz
Hey GC Mah, thank you for the great and honest review about this car! Love it. This is awesome.
me too, same feedback from me. Have you heard of Petronas new fuel?
@@zandrazess2115 You mean Petronas Primax 97 with Pro-Race?
@@terryfu830 yea, correct. have you tried using it yet?
@@zandrazess2115 yess, I've tried it already. First time pump in no effect, but the effect starts to take place only after the second time pump.
@@terryfu830 cool! Good that you have tried it already. If we buy this Proton X50 use with Petronas Primax 97 with Pro-Race, its gonna be damn nice not only with the turbo function.
Nice video, love your enthusiasm.
You're the best GC Mah
there is a goodness and weaknesses, well everything is not perfect. i think this car is worth it and value for money. i luv this guy explanation. huhu
watching X50 best reviews by Malaysian "Carfection" chanel 👍😄
We’ll take that as a compliment 😉 thanks for watching dude!

Nice intonation & nice placed jokes..great review by Autobuzz team..
Your review the honest one that I found until now
Great product with correct pricing placement...true killer..rugi x beli bro 👍👍
Superb review!! All hail GC 👍👍
i really enjoyed ur review vid bro..
Very talented reviewer!
Really love your presentation and acting, it's the best of the best car review that I've watched so many years, even better than Tai Choo Yee ( he is good too but too tension and serious feel). Wish to see you put more effort in Mandarin and keep it on.😁😁
Tai? No match compared to this gentleman.
Thank you for teaching me mandarin!! Cant wait to use it to my mom
Bruh... 😂
Prepare to move out of the house bro
Good review GC 😁 sometimes I wonder between you and Eu Jin, who has more followers? Haha...🙄 🤣
Of course the boss ah hahaha, but it’s all for the good of AutoBuzz!
Its dashboard, on top is soft touch, but if you check on bottom part, its like material similiar to Saga SV
Even whn I bought kelisa as new, engine vibration not noticeable. But after few years, 3 cylinder vibrates like hell..
kelisa over 10 yrs old already, of course it will vibrate. the X50 has got all sort of new tech to overcome the vibration. but i would like to see how it’ll be like after a few years, even with all that tech at the end of the day it’s still a 3 cyl.
started being fan of GC when he reviewed MYVI G3 couple of years ago, very cool and straight honest review
Thank you for the comprehensive sharing. Wow! Very insightful. Great job Bro! If the price is 30k more than now.. well I would prefer to go for imported car.
Best Review of Proton X50 thus far. Waiting for Almera and City!
Coming up reallllll soon!
great review!
Wonderful bro....Thank ya for the review Yea....you’re da best bro...👌🏻🍺
dang it, now i can't unsee the aircond vent memes
good job bro jibby. I'm sure proton on the right path, no need gov support anymore.
looks, price and feature are the main things put into consideration
Saya suka cara dia ni review. Ingat lagi saya masa dia review proton saga vvt 2016 tu. Mmg menarik
"Rugi kalau x beli bro"
😆.. bikin panas je...😂
Can tapau Myvi or not
GC my man!💥💥
Even the engine area looks so premium
Im starting to like this guy review. Im gonna search his other video review
I couldn't help but burst out laughing at that "joke" @15:04 :-D

dam unlucky
Ervin,you get the best of best in singapore,why bother with this.Singapore cars all comes with really high specs and real leather,any make.
great video bro love you
Nice review 👍
How's the DCT in town driving? slow traffic in town is typically where DCT stumbles. Wonder if this is the case for the X50.
