2020 Proton X50 exceeds sales target, waiting period 3 months 01

In just a little over two weeks since its media preview, the Proton X50 has surpassed its 4,000 unit sales goal. 

And as you are well aware, all of this happened even before prices have been announced - but that hasn't stopped prospective buyers from shelling out the RM500 booking fee.
