What do we have here? A posting on social media by a Proton showroom representative suggests that the 2024 Proton X50 will be unveiled on Tuesday, June 4. That’s right after this long weekend!
Before you get too excited though, the teaser image shows a car that looks virtually identical to the current model, so this is likely just a minor update and not a full-fledged facelift. The spyshots of the proper X50 facelift we’ve seen recently are perhaps of a more extensive refresh set for later on, not this year.
So, what to expect from this updated 2024 version, then? No exact details are official just yet, but it’s safe to assume it will get a few small upgrades/enhancements, and hopefully a price revision as well. The X50 is under fire from a few newer models with ultra-competitive prices after all, and it has been offered with substantial discounts lately.
We’ll have to wait until Tuesday to find out the exact changes made to Proton’s popular B-segment SUV. Better safety package, cheaper price, perhaps upgraded equipment list?
Read the full report here on paultan.org at 11am this coming Tuesday.
UPDATE: Proton has released an official teaser below, confirming the launch date.
The post 2024 Proton X50 to be launched next week, June 4 appeared first on Paul Tan's Automotive News.

Proton has introduced a ‘5-Star Rating’ initiative to raise the standards of after-sales service, recognising dealers who have achieved an outstanding level. This is an extension of the Proton Operational Excellence (POE) initiative that started in March 2023.
The new rating is awarded to dealers based on their POE score and ‘Service Quality’ (SQ), encouraging all outlets to achieve and maintain a high level of customer service and satisfaction. SQ is evaluated in two categories, namely ‘Speed’ and ‘Compliance’, and these are then measured over six focus areas. The end goal is for outlets to manage customers concerns effectively and to deliver the best experience.
Proton’s POE initiative emphasises adherence to a ‘thorough list of requirements’ such as service process, technician competency, stock inventory and customer management. It was launched with the primary aim of enhancing the business performance of outlets and improving the operations efficiency of service centres nationwide.

Each outlet is assessed on a monthly basis and the results are then shared with all dealers to ‘clearly indicate where they stand within the network’. Proton’s after-sales division then works closely with the outlets to proactively raise their service levels and scores – this is done via quarterly roadshows (also held to give recognition to top achievers) and the sharing of best practices, the carmaker sa..

If you haven’t already heard, Proton will soon debut an electric vehicle, which will fall under a new EV brand. Earlier this month, Proton New Energy Technology (Pro-Net) announced a naming contest for the brand, called the Proton EV Brand Name Contest.
The contest concludes on June 5 (11.59 pm), which means that there are six days more for you to join. To do so, fill up a registration form, input your guess and match images to the order of the given statements. You’ll then stand a chance to win a grand prize of RM5,000 cash, or RM1,500 for second, RM1,000 for third and RM100 for the other top-five entries. Pro-Net says that it has received over 22,440 entries so far
“The overwhelming response to the Proton EV Brand Name Contest is a testament to the passion and excitement shared by Malaysians as we usher in a new era of automotive excellence. With the finish line in sight, we extend our heartfelt gratitude to all participants and encourage those who have yet to join the competition to seize this final opportunity to leave their mark on automotive history,” said Zhang Qiang, CEO of Pro-Net.
The contest announcement had a teaser of an outline drawing, which is tacit confirmation that new Proton EV will be based on the Geely Galaxy E5 that was revealed earlier this month – that SUV’s roof rails and slim headlights are visible in the outline.
The E5 was already widely touted to be the donor car for Proton’s EV, given that it has reportedly been de..
