Proton X50 Overview

Proton X50 sports a unique styling with its own originality.

Like its elder sibling, the overall sporty aesthetic helps to create a bolder impression.

The front section comes with stylish LED Headlamps with unique LED DRLs. Also, it sports the signature infinite-weave grille.

Similarly, the hood section gets a decent amount of creases and lines. Adding to that, the front bumper also helps maintain the sleek silhouette.

Interestingly, the side profile is much sportier than the Proton X70.

It comes with sculpted lines that move from the headlamp to the taillamp. It gives off a wraparound appearance.

Proton X50 rivals Hyundai Creta.

Nevertheless, the Proton X50 has better specs, better design, and better offerings. Unfortunately, it is still unable to match the sheer popularity and market dominance of the Hyundai Creta.

Additionally, Hyundai Creta has more variants available at a much lower price.

This works against Proton’s offering to some extent. Nevertheless, Proton X50 still possesses a good value with a 5-Star Safety Rating along with more features!
