Perhaps one of Malaysia’s most highly-anticipated models, the Proton X50, has been caught beside its larger sibling, the Proton X70, giving us a good look at how much smaller the X50 is. Compared to the Proton X70 (4,519 mm x 1,831 mm x 1,694 mm), the Proton X50 is 4,330 mm long (189 mm shorter), 1,800 mm wide (31 mm narrower), and 1,609 mm tall (85 mm shorter).
