Which obviously leads to a host of questions about fitting certain gear and equipment into the vehicle. A popular question is whether you can fit a bicycle into a car and in the case of the latest addition to the SA market, the Proton X50, we wanted to know if you could indeed fit a bike inside.
Make it fit
If you remove the front wheel of the bicycle and drop the rear seats and remove the parcel shelf of the X50, you can, very carefully, fit a full frame-size bicycle inside. We however recommend getting a bicycle rack of some kind to protect the interior of your Proton.
