2025 Proton X50 facelift spotted with regular spoiler instead of Batmobile-style rear wing; but there’s ADAS

Another round of 2025 Proton X50 facelift spyshots, this time courtesy of Cairel Zikry. By now we know the SUV will take the Geely Binyue L as its base (judging by the full-width horizontally-slatted lower grille, as opposed to the Binyue Cool’s mesh grille).

However, this particular unit’s roof spoiler is similar to the current X50‘s and not the more outlandish Batmobile-style one previously spotted, leading us to believe that the latter will only be fitted to the top variant(s). The current X50 RC comes in four variants, all with the same spoiler.

What’s more, there’s an ADAS camera on this ‘lower-spec’ variant. Proton seems to be entering a new era where ADAS is not a top-of-the-range exclusive feature, as the lower-spec eMas 7 Prime also has ADAS.

Expect the next iteration of Proton’s best-selling SUV to get a redesigned tailgate and back bumper, full-width tail lamps, the aforementioned full-width horizontally-slatted lower front grille, slim headlamps with S70-like DRL dashes, L-shaped bumper corners front and rear, plus new 18-inch turbine-style alloys.

If we look at the Binyue L, that car gets a revised interior with new air-con vents, climate control toggles and a revamped centre console with twin grab handles, configurable storage and a thin translucent gear selector.

There’s also the latest Flyme Auto infotainment system that made its Malaysian debut on the eMas 7, running on an 8.8-inch slimline instrument display and 14.6-inch centre touchscreen (bettering the current X50’s 7.0- and 10.25-inch displays). Other new bits include novel new sunvisors with a see-through lower half that retains forward visibility while still cutting out glare.

Under the X50 facelift’s bonnet could be Geely’s latest four-cylinder turbo engine, used since the Binyue Cool. In the Binyue L, the 180 PS/290 Nm mill is married to a seven-speed wet twin-clutch gearbox, yielding a 7.6-second 0-100 km/h time.
