Recently went viral on social media was a brand-new Proton x50 driven by one of their sales advisors which got into an accident and was reported to be a total wreck.


The accident took place during the delivery process where the sales advisor had to deliver the brand-new Proton x50 from Kuala Lumpur to its customer in Johor Bahru. 

A Facebook user that goes by the handle of Puteri Topsales, was the one who shared the incident and it caught the attention of many netizens.

According to Puteri Topsales, the supposed sales advisor, she wasn’t allowed to deliver and or drive the crashed x50 alone. This is due to her current status of being an ex-sales advisor.

Thus, a representative who goes by the name of Azmi, was instead tasked to drive the brand-new x50, while the ex-sales advisor was to only tailgate him using Azmi’s personal car during the delivery process.

Unbeknownst and in major shock, when she found out that Azmi had gotten into an accident which has resulted in the brand-new Proton x50 to receive maximum damage, a total loss. 

“Around 11 PM, I got a phone call from my customer saying, Azmi told her that he has gotten himself into a major accident which resulted in the x50’s condition to be in the state of a total loss,” commented Puteri Topsales on her Facebook post.  

Nevertheless, a police report has been made about the crash at a police station in Segamat. Also, Azmi, driver of the crashed Proton x50 was reported to not suffer from any injuries whatsoever.
