Proton presents eight X50 1.5T Executive SUVs to Subang Jaya City Council for use as official vehicles

Proton has presented eight X50 SUVs to the Subang Jaya City Council (MBSJ) for use as official vehicles. The vehicles, all 1.5T Executive variants, were presented to the council on February 8 at the MBSJ Engineering Workshop in Subang Jaya.

The cars, which will be used by MBSJ for official duties, were handed over by Proton’s corporate sales director Fazli Hisham Shukor to Subang Jaya mayor Datuk Johary Anuar. Also present at the brief handover ceremony were Mohd Zulkurnain Che Ali, the deputy mayor and MBSJ deputy secretary Rosli Muhammad Yunus.

The X50 Executive is powered by a 1.5 litre turbocharged three-cylinder petrol engine capable of delivering 150 PS at 5,500 rpm and 226 Nm from 1,500 to 4,000 rpm, and the mill is paired with a seven-speed wet dual-clutch transmission.

Launched in September 2020, the X50 is priced from RM79,200 for the Standard to RM103,300 for the Flagship. The 1.5T Executive sits above the Standard model, and goes for RM84,800.

      All the menteri menteri should be humble enough to drive this X50…why membazir wang rakyat with vellfire?
      The rakyat is not interested in rhetorical speeches.
      Actions speak louder than words.

        Malaysian bureaucracy.
        Proposed to buy in 2018
        Approved to buy in 2019
        Budgeted in 2020
        Cars arrived in 2021
        The current mentris only used what was decided back in 2019. Not their fault as decision was not theirs. Should ask mentris of 2019 why they membazir duit rakyat instead of using Protons. They must repent and retire, action speak louder than words.

            At 1st, you masqueraded as Sick & Tired, and now Celup King. You’re not only trying to be the master of copycat, Copy Paste; now also trying to be the master of imposter.

          Save your spin doctoring for other comment sections. Here, automotive fans campaign about what they think are the better cars.

      Even PH has to downgrade now they lost. Previously they supported Merc & Alphards.

        That’s one way to look at it. Here’s another way, maybe X50 quality is on par with those you mentioned.. but a LOT cheaper, don’t you think? If you don’t think so, I assume you’re just bashing then?

      If cannot wait, can switch to P2, but that’s in MDHS, outside of MBSJ territory.

            Sendayan center for relabeling as ‘Made in Mesia’. Well done!

            By jove, STM, you’ve got it. Since it’s made in Sendayan, Malaysia, of course it is labelled ‘Made in Malaysia’, and the same labels are also distributed to Tg. Malim. And your prize is a ride with yours truly aboard my JDM Royal Edition Alphard cruiser. Well done!

            @Copy Paste (who is masquerading as Celup King), there’s nothing for anyone to apologize because the Minangkabau folks from Riau Sumatera brought the Sendayan name to Negeri Sembilan long long ago.

            Is this some how related to the Daihatsu factories in Indonesia? They are actually near Jakarta on Jawa island, not Sumatra.
