    2026 Proton X50 Malaysia Price & Variant Guide

    2026 Proton X50

    Compare the 2026 Proton X50 variants: 1.5TD Executive (RM89,800), 1.5TD Premium (RM101,800), and 1.5TD Flagship (RM113,300) to find the perfect trim for your budget.

    The launch of the refreshed 2026 Proton X50 marks an exciting evolution in the Malaysian compact SUV landscape, bringing massive tech upgrades and a streamlined lineup to savvy drivers. To make buying decisions simpler, Proton has focused this generation onto three high-value trims: the 1.5TD Executive (RM89,800), the mid-tier 1.5TD Premium (RM101,800), and the range-topping 1.5TD Flagship (RM113,300).

    Every single variant now comes standard with a potent 181 PS turbocharged engine and a massive 14.6-inch infotainment screen supporting wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. Navigating these options comes down to choosing the exact level of luxury, automated convenience, and active safety your daily drive demands. This comprehensive guide breaks down the three updated choices to help you identify the perfect X50 variant for your lifestyle and budget.

    Proton X50 Executive

    The 2026 Proton X50 Executive cements its status as Malaysia’s ultimate value-driven B-segment SUV, combining premium performance with an accessible entry price of RM89,800. Serving as the highly practical sweet spot of the updated lineup, the Executive trim shares the exact same standard rear spoiler with the Premium variant for a sporty aesthetic. Under the hood, its potent 1.5-litre turbocharged engine unleashes a Max Power of 133 kW (181 PS) at 5,500 RPM and a Max Torque of 290 Nm at 2,000–3,500 RPM. Power is seamlessly delivered via a responsive 7-speed wet dual-clutch transmission (DCT) for a spirited, engaging drive. Drivers looking to balance a budget with true turbocharged thrill will find this compact SUV to be the ideal daily commuter.

    Stepping inside the refreshed interior reveals a tech upgrade centered around a 14.6-inch infotainment unit. While it includes smart keyless entry and rear air vents, it does not include a wireless charger, as that feature is exclusively reserved for the top-tier Flagship trim. It rides on smaller 215/60 R17 alloy tyres and wheels, providing a comfortable ride compared to the larger 18-inch wheels offered on the Premium and Flagship trims. It prioritizes affordability by utilizing practical passive cruise control over complex autonomous ADAS braking systems, refusing to compromise on everyday convenience.

    X50 Premium

    The 2026 X50 Premium strikes the definitive sweet spot for families and urban commuters, layering essential everyday conveniences onto the already impressive base platform. The exterior receives an immediate cosmetic and functional boost, stepping up to larger, aggressive 18-inch alloy wheels that fill out the wheel arches beautifully. It also introduces a highly practical power tailgate, allowing you to load groceries, strollers, or luggage completely hands-free.

    Inside, the Premium variant steps deeper into luxury territory. While it shares the exact same 181 PS turbo powertrain and high-resolution 14.6-inch central display as the Executive model, it adds a power-adjustable driver’s seat and a dual-zone climate control system so passengers can personalize their comfort. Crucially, it introduces Advanced Driver Assistance System (ADAS) safety components but without Auto Park Assist (APA), providing extra monitoring layers to prevent accidents in heavy city gridlock. It remains the most sensible choice for buyers who want an upscale look, automated convenience, and improved safety tech for just a modest price increase.

    Proton X50 Flagship

    The X50 Flagship stands as the absolute crown jewel of the facelifted generation, fully loaded with uncompromising luxury, style, and cutting-edge tech. Visually, it asserts its flagship dominance instantly with a signature two-tone exterior package featuring a contrast black roof. The headline exterior feature is its breathtaking panoramic sunroof, which floods the spacious cabin with natural light to create an open, airy, high-end lounge ambiance for all passengers.

    The interior layout hits its premium peak with a bold, exclusive dual-tone color scheme wrapped in top-tier leatherette materials. What truly sets the Flagship apart, however, is its uncompromising approach to safety. It is the only variant in the entire lineup equipped with the complete, unrestricted Advanced Driver Assistance System (ADAS) suite, offering active protections like Adaptive Cruise Control with stop-and-go capabilities, Lane Keep Assist, and Autonomous Emergency Braking. For driving enthusiasts who demand maximum visual flair, first-class comfort, and the ultimate tier of autonomous safety protection, the Flagship is the definitive choice.

    Conclusion

    Ultimately, choosing the right 2023 Proton X90 variant comes down to how much you value active safety and second-row passenger luxury. While the budget-friendly Standard and Executive trims provide excellent entry points with a practical 7-seater layout, upgrading to the Premium or Flagship variants unlocks the full suite of advanced driver assistance safety tech. If maximizing family transport utility is your main priority, the 7-seater Premium serves as the sweetest spot for tech and value. However, if you want a true executive travel experience with a panoramic sunroof and individual captain seats, saving up for the top-tier 6-seater Flagship configuration is well worth the extra investment.

Boasting a 5-year unlimited mileage warranty, a 5-year 1GB/month data package, and 6 times free labor service, it offers both peace of mind and cost-saving benefits.

  • 2022 Proton Iriz Review: Standard vs Active Trims

    2022 Proton Iriz Review: Standard vs Active Trims

    2022 Proton Iriz

    Compare the 2022 Proton Iriz Standard, Executive, and Active variants to explore 1.3L vs 1.6L performance, updated cabin tech, and safety ratings.

    Introduction

    The 2022 Proton Iriz facelift brings a massive interior overhaul and a fresh crossover identity to the local B-segment hatchback market. Moving beyond a simple cosmetic nip-and-tuck, this second major update introduces the rugged, SUV-inspired Active variant alongside the everyday Standard and mid-tier Executive options. Buyers must navigate notable shifts under the hood—deciding between the entry-level 1.3L engine and the punchier 1.6L powerplant—as well as highly distinct styling languages. Reviewing how these distinct trim levels compare will reveal how they stack up in daily driving dynamics, cabin comfort, and safety features.

    Iriz Standard

    The Proton Iriz Standard (Price: RM40,800*) is a modern compact car that provides comfortable driving experience. It has a 5-speed transmission that produces smooth shifting and efficient performance. The car has an up-to-date technology, including daytime running lights, power windows, power locks, and a seven-inch touchscreen display with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto compatibility. It is also equipped with stability control, hill-start assist, and rain-sensing wipers.

    Iriz Executive

    The Proton Iriz Executive (Price: RM54,800*) is Proton’s mid-size hatchback with a balance of comfort, power, and style. On the safety front, it is equipped with an advanced safety package, including six airbags, stability control, and a reverse camera. Other standard features include dual-zone climate control, ISOFIX child-seat mounting, and a five-star Euro NCAP crash test rating making the Iriz a great option for families.

    Proton Iriz Executive Review

    Iriz Active

    The Proton Iriz Active (Price: RM54,800*) is the top-level variant of the redesigned Proton Iriz model. It boasts a sleek and sporty exterior and plush interior. It is powered by a 1.6-liter VVT petrol engine with a continuously variable transmission (CVT). This drivetrain delivers 103 PS (101 hp) and 150 Nm of torque.

    Standard equipment includes LED daytime running lights, a 9-inch touchscreen infotainment system with CarPlay and Android Auto, keyless entry and start, dual-zone climate control, and a digital instrument cluster. The Iriz also comes with advanced safety features such as six airbags, Electronic Stability Control (ESC), and Hill Start Assist (HSA).

    Proton Iriz Active Review

    Conclusion

    Choosing the ideal 2022 Proton Iriz variant depends on your budget and how much you value modern cabin connectivity and safety tech. The 1.3L Standard serves as an affordable, five-star ASEAN NCAP-rated runabout, but it sacrifices extra airbags and the upgraded touchscreen head unit. Moving up to the Executive trim secures the stronger 1.6L engine and crucial 6-airbag protection, making it the most sensible value proposition for daily commuters. However, if you want a sporty hatchback that stands out with roof rails, matte black body cladding, and a bold, red-accented interior, stretching your budget for the top-of-the-line Active variant delivers the definitive modern Iriz experience.

  • 2019 Proton Exora Review: Executive vs Premium

    2019 Proton Exora Review: Executive vs Premium

    2019 Proton Exora

    Discover the 2019 Proton Exora in Executive and Premium trims — compare its spacious 7-seater design, turbocharged performance, and smart “Hi Proton” voice control.

    Introduction

    The 2019 Proton Exora Running Change (RC) facelift breathes fresh tech into Malaysia’s most affordable C-segment MPV. Offering massive cabin real estate for budget-conscious families, this updated people-mover streamlines its lineup into two distinct trims: the entry-level Executive and the range-topping Premium. Both variants share a 1.6-litre turbocharged engine mated to a CVT, delivering reliable highway power for seven adult occupants. However, deciding between the two requires looking past the shared powertrain to evaluate crucial differences in active safety engineering, exterior styling kits, and smart cabin features.

    Exora Executive

    The Proton Exora Executive is a 7-seat MPV that comes with the latest 1.6 Turbocharged engine. This engine has a power output of 140 hp and 205 Nm of torque. The vehicle also comes with features such as ABS, EBD, EBA, and Traction Control. The transmission of the vehicle is a CVT with 7-speed sequential mode coupled with a manual shift mode. The exterior of the vehicle is equipped with LED headlamps, muscular and sporty body styling, fog lamps, 17-inch alloy wheels, and a rear spoiler.

    Exora Premium

    The Exora Premium comes with a legion of safety features such as airbags and stability control, a reverse-sensing system, and a tire pressure monitoring system. Additionally, this vehicle features a high-resolution 7″ touchscreen infotainment system with Android Auto and Apple CarPlay compatibility. This is the perfect vehicle for the modern family that is looking for a reliable, comfortable, and safe family car.

    Proton Exora Premium Review

    Conclusion

    Deciding between the two 2019 Proton Exora configurations comes down to your safety requirements and tech preferences. The Executive trim remains an incredibly practical utility tool for large families looking for maximum cabin space at the lowest possible baseline price. However, stepping up to the Premium variant heavily elevates the daily drive by adding essential Electronic Stability Control (ESC), semi-leatherette seats, a reverse camera, and a 7-inch “Hi Proton” infotainment screen. Given the importance of stability control for a fully loaded family vehicle, saving up for the Premium trim is the smarter, highly recommended investment.

    2022 Proton Persona: Best Buying Guide & Variants

    2022 Proton Persona

    Discover the 2022 Proton Persona variants. Compare the Standard, Executive, and Premium trims to find the best features, pricing, and value for your daily drive.

    Introduction

    The 2022 Proton Persona remains a top contender in the Malaysian B-segment sedan market, offering an ideal balance of space, safety, and affordability. With three distinct trims available—Standard, Executive, and Premium—choosing the right one depends heavily on your budget and feature priorities. This guide breaks down the key differences between the variants to help you make an informed decision.

    Persona Standard

    The Persona Standard (Price: RM45,800*) serves as the budget-friendly entry point into the 2022 lineup, designed specifically for pragmatic buyers and first-time car owners. Despite its position as the base tier, it does not compromise on core mechanics, sharing the exact same punchy 1.6-litre VVT engine and smooth CVT transmission found in the pricier variants. It offers a no-nonsense, reliable daily commute with essential modern conveniences, riding on neat 15-inch alloy wheels and featuring practical fabric seats.

    Safety remains a strong selling point for this entry-level model, making it a highly competitive choice in its price bracket. Proton equipped the Standard variant with essential active safety technologies, including Electronic Stability Control (ESC), Traction Control, and Hill Hold Assist. While it trades away the advanced digital infotainment screens and leatherette finishes of higher trims for a traditional audio system, it provides unmatched cabin space and structural safety for budget-conscious drivers.

    Persona Executive

    The Persona Executive (Price: RM50,800*) strikes the ideal middle ground in the lineup, offering a significant step up in comfort and technology without a massive price jump. The exterior receives a stylish upgrade with larger 16-inch bi-colour alloy wheels and automatic headlamps, giving the sedan a much sharper, more premium road presence. Inside, the cabin gets a modern tech overhaul centered around an 8-inch touchscreen infotainment monitor, complete with smartphone connectivity to keep drivers seamlessly connected on the move.

    Convenience is heavily emphasized in this mid-tier variant, adding practical features that make daily commuting effortless. Drivers benefit from intelligent keyless entry with a push-start button, a reverse camera with dynamic guide lines, and a total of six USB ports scattered throughout the cabin to keep everyone’s devices fully charged. It represents the sweet spot for small families and ride-sharing drivers who want modern tech and added convenience at a highly reasonable price point.

    Persona Premium

    The Persona Premium (Price: RM55,800*) stands as the flagship variant, fully loaded with top-tier aesthetics, comfort, and safety features for discerning buyers. Visually, it sets itself apart with a striking black roof contrast, full LED headlamps, and sleek daytime running lights that elevate its overall road presence. The interior is transformed into a more luxurious space, swapping out fabric for premium brown leatherette seats and matching door trim inserts that create a sophisticated, upscale atmosphere.

    Tech and safety reach their peak in the Premium trim, highlighted by an advanced infotainment system featuring “Hi Proton” voice command logic for hands-free control over windows, air conditioning, and music navigation. Crucially, it maximizes occupant protection by upgrading the safety package to a full suite of six airbags, compared to the four found in lower trims. For buyers looking for a B-segment sedan that offers a premium ownership experience, advanced voice aesthetics, and maximum safety protection, the Premium variant is the definitive choice.

    Introduction

    The 2022 Proton Saga continues its legacy as Malaysia’s definitive “People’s Car,” offering unmatched practicality and reliability at an affordable price point. With the introduction of the MC2 facelift, the lineup expanded into four distinct choices: the Standard Manual, Standard AT, Premium, and the range-topping Premium S. Navigating these options requires a close look at how each tier balances budget constraints with modern driving comforts. This comprehensive guide breaks down every variant to help you identify the best value for your daily commute.

    Proton X50

    Compare the 2020 Proton X50 variants. Explore the Standard, Executive, Premium, and Flagship trims to find the best performance, tech, and value for your budget.

    Introduction

    The launch of the 2020 Proton X50 marked a massive milestone in the Malaysian automotive landscape, completely redefining what buyers could expect from a compact SUV. Blending striking design, cutting-edge technology, and competitive pricing, it quickly became a highly coveted model on the road. Available in four distinct trims—Standard, Executive, Premium, and Flagship—the X50 caters to a wide range of budgets and driver preferences. This guide breaks down the key performance, safety, and comfort differences across the lineup to help you choose the ideal variant.

    X50 Standard

    The X50 Standard (Price: Starting from RM79,200) acts as the highly attractive entry-level gateway into Proton’s compact SUV ecosystem, designed for drivers who want modern styling without a premium price tag. Under the hood, it features a 1.5-litre three-cylinder multi-point injection (MPI) turbocharged engine paired with a quick-shifting 7-speed wet dual-clutch transmission. On the outside, it establishes a sharp presence right out of the gate, featuring full LED headlamps with daytime running lights and neat 17-inch alloy wheels that give it a confident, planted stance.

    Inside the cabin, the Standard variant delivers plenty of modern amenities, including comfortable fabric seats, a digital instrument cluster, and an 8-inch touchscreen infotainment unit. It covers all the essential safety bases with four airbags, electronic stability control, and a reverse camera. For budget-conscious buyers moving up from a traditional sedan or hatchback, the Standard trim offers the perfect balance of modern SUV ride height, turbo performance, and excellent daily practicality.

    X50 Executive

    The X50 Executive (Price: Starting from RM84,800) builds nicely on the entry-level model, introducing key comfort upgrades and enhanced safety features for a modest price increase. The exterior gets a classy lift with the addition of automatic headlamps and front fog lamps that improve visibility during dark or rainy drives.

Drivers benefit from an intelligent 360-degree camera system that makes tight city parking effortless, while safety is boosted to six airbags for full front and side curtain protection. It serves as an incredibly sensible sweet spot in the lineup, offering the premium look and feel most buyers want without breaking the bank.

    X50 Premium

    The X50 Premium (Price: Starting from RM93,200) takes a significant stride toward a luxury ownership experience, packing in high-end comfort and tech features usually reserved for more expensive segments.

The interior layout feels notably upscale, featuring a larger, crystal-clear 10.25-inch infotainment screen, a fully digital 7-inch driver’s instrument display, and a power-adjustable driver’s seat.

    Comfort is maximized with a dual-zone climate control setup that allows the driver and front passenger to set their own temperatures independently. Mechanically, it uses the same reliable 150 PS MPI turbo engine as the lower trims, but wraps it in a much more sophisticated package. It is the definitive choice for lifestyle-oriented buyers who want the absolute maximum amount of luxury, digital displays, and cabin creature comforts without jumping to the top-tier engine price.

The most critical upgrade lies under the hood, where it swaps the standard engine for an exclusive 1.5-litre direct-injection (TGDi) turbo engine, boosting output to a thrilling 177 PS and 255 Nm of torque. Visually, it asserts its flagship dominance with a striking two-tone exterior featuring a contrast black roof and a breathtaking panoramic sunroof that floods the cabin with natural light.

    2020 Proton X70: Full Variant & Buying Guide

    2020 Proton X70

    Compare the 2020 Proton X70 variants. Explore the Standard, Executive, Premium, and Premium X trims to find the best comfort, tech, and value for your budget.

    Introduction

    The arrival of the 2020 locally assembled (CKD) Proton X70 marked a massive leap forward for Malaysia’s C-segment SUV market, introducing a smoother ride, upgraded transmission, and enhanced value. Known for its exceptional cabin refinement and premium road presence, this iteration remains a highly popular choice for growing families and executive commuters alike. With four distinct trims available—Standard, Executive, Premium, and Premium X—the X70 lineup ensures a perfect match for varying budgets and lifestyle needs. This guide breaks down the essential performance, technology, and luxury differences to help you select the ideal variant.

    X70 Standard

    The X70 Standard serves as the comfortable, highly accessible entry point into Proton’s flagship C-segment SUV lineup. For the 2020 locally assembled (CKD) model, it retains a potent 1.8-litre turbocharged four-cylinder engine but receives a massive upgrade with a new 7-speed wet dual-clutch transmission (7DCT). This mechanical refinement significantly improves gear shift speeds and bumps up torque output to a robust 300 Nm. On the outside, it establishes a premium presence with 17-inch alloy wheels, halogen headlamps, and sleek body contours that easily rival pricier competitors.

    Inside the cabin, the Standard variant provides an exceptionally spacious and quiet ride, making it an excellent choice for daily family transportation. Passengers are treated to durable fabric seats, an 8-inch touchscreen infotainment display featuring online navigation, and a helpful clean-air ionizer system. While it keeps things straightforward with a standard reverse camera and front-wheel-drive dynamics, it refuses to skimp on fundamental safety, packing in electronic stability control and six airbags across the entire cabin.

    X70 Executive

    The X70 Executive represents the highly popular middle tier, striking a beautiful balance between sensible pricing and enhanced family comfort. The exterior receives a noticeable aesthetic and functional lift, upgrading to bright LED headlamps, auto-sensing windshield wipers, and larger 18-inch alloy wheels that instantly sharpen its road presence. It also introduces a highly practical power tailgate, allowing drivers to open the boot hands-free when loaded down with groceries or luggage.

    Step inside, and the cabin experience is elevated with plush, easy-to-clean black leatherette upholstery and a supportive 6-way power-adjustable driver’s seat. Drivers will also appreciate the addition of a comprehensive 360-degree camera system, which displays a crystal-clear bird’s-eye view on the infotainment screen to make maneuvering this large SUV into tight city parking spaces completely stress-free. It remains the ideal choice for buyers who want essential premium conveniences without stretching their budget to the maximum.

    X70 Premium

    The X70 Premium steps directly into true luxury territory, catering specifically to discerning buyers who want top-tier technology and first-class cabin comfort. The interior feels immediately upscale, replacing the leatherette with ultra-luxurious, deeply comfortable brown Nappa leather seats. The tech experience peaks with a power-adjustable front passenger seat featuring “boss switches” on the shoulder, allowing the driver or rear passenger to easily slide the front seat forward for maximum legroom.

    Safety and audio performance also receive an incredible boost in this flagship-tier variant. Passengers can enjoy a premium 9-speaker Kenwood sound system complete with a dedicated amplifier and subwoofer for an immersive acoustic experience. Crucially, the Premium trim introduces Proton’s full Advanced Driver Assistance System (ADAS) suite, offering active safety protections like Autonomous Emergency Braking (AEB), Forward Collision Warning (FCW), and Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) for ultimate peace of mind on long highway cruises.

    X70 Premium X

    The X70 Premium X stands as the absolute crown jewel of the 2020 lineup, built specifically for buyers who refuse to make any compromises on luxury and aesthetic flair. It inherits every single high-end feature from the Premium trim, including the luxurious Nappa leather interior, the high-fidelity Kenwood audio setup, and the complete suite of Level 2 autonomous safety features. It commands a premium road presence, riding high on massive, executive-styled 19-inch alloy wheels that perfectly fill out the wheel arches.

    The definitive, exclusive feature of the Premium X is its breathtaking panoramic sunroof. This massive glass roof floods the spacious cabin with natural light, dramatically enhancing the sense of openness and giving the entire vehicle an incredibly premium, airy lounge ambiance. For executive commuters and modern families who want the absolute highest level of specification, unmatched road presence, and an elite open-air driving experience, the Premium X is the definitive choice.
