805,000 new cars expected to be sold in Malaysia in 2025, hybrids to be included in national EV targets?

Theophilus Chin’s idea of what Perodua’s first production EV could look likeCIMB Securities and Maybank Investment Bank Research predicted 755,000 and 750,000 units respectively (lower than the record 800,000 units expected this year), but Kenanga Investment Bank has gone the other way, expecting 805,000 new cars to be sold in Malaysia in 2025, Bernama reports.
The investment bank said the higher projection was backed by bigger pie slices encompassing a volume-driven affordable segment, citing Perodua’s sustained over-90,000-unit order backlog, steady monthly deliveries and new launches replacing older generation vehicles (the Bezza is almost nine years old and the third-gen Myvi turns eight next year – both have yet to be DNGA-ed).
It added that the upcoming targeted RON 95 subsidies should drive mid-market buyers to down-trade to more fuel-efficient cars, including hybrids, EVs and Energy Efficient Vehicles (EEV). Plus, more Chinese carmakers could ramp up their local assembly (CKD) efforts, potentially boosting their market share.

The GWM Haval H6 HEV is a locally-assembled (CKD) hybrid vehicle“We also anticipate a mid-term review of the National Automotive Policy (NAP) to include hybrid vehicles as a key transition to the national target for EV and hybrid vehicles of 15% of TIV by 2030 and 38% by 2040,” Kenanga IB said in a research note today.
In fact, the latest national target is for EVs (battery-electric vehicles) to make up 20% of Malaysia’s total ..

Proton New Energy Technology (Pro-Net) has announced that the Proton eMas 7 EV, which was officially launched on December 16, has achieved over 2,500 bookings so far. The all-electric SUV is available in two variant forms, these being the Prime and Premium, priced at RM109,800 and RM123,800, on-the-road without insurance.
Of course, as mentioned during the launch, the first 3,000 eMas 7 buyers get a RM4,000 discount, which brings the price of the Prime down to RM105,800 and that for the Premium to RM119,800. With the launch offer still available, you can make a booking for the Proton eMas 7 at any of the 30 Proton eMas dealerships nationwide or through the Proton e.MAS website.
On top of the rebate, Proton is also throwing in a launch package worth RM8,000 for the first 3,000 customers, consisting of a free 7kW home charger worth RM1,500, a free V2L adaptor worth RM500, a five-year unlimited data package worth RM1,800, a trade-in rebate worth RM1,200 and a special 1.98% interest rate from Proton Commerce, offering savings of up to RM3,000.
To recap, both eMas 7 variants are powered by a front-mounted electric motor that produces 218 PS (160 kW) and 320 Nm of torque, which is able to get the EV from zero to 100 km/h in 6.9 seconds on the way to a 175 km/h top speed.

Proton eMas 7 warranty – full battery replacement if SoH falls below 70% within 8 years or 160,000 km

Without doubt the most important EV launch in Malaysia this year, the eMas 7 is Proton’s first production battery-electric vehicle. As a national carmaker, its products are geared towards the Malaysian masses, many of whom may be new to EVs and therefore still wary of taking the plunge.
Besides range anxiety, the battery is one of the most questioned aspects among those new to EVs – what is the battery’s lifespan? What if there’s a problem with the battery? Valid questions, and we’re sure people asked the same questions about combustion engines 140 years ago. We certainly did with hybrids!
Well, apart from a six-year/unlimited mileage warranty that applies to the vehicle, the Proton eMas 7 is sold with an eight-year/160,000 km EV warranty, which covers the EV components and the battery. We checked with Proton – if the battery’s state of health dips below 70% within those eight years, Proton will replace the entire battery for free, just like BYD and Chery. How’s that for peace of mind?
Moreover, according to Proton, internal tests show that after 921 complete charge and discharge cycles – which is equivalent to a mileage of 400,000 km – battery state of health is 90.5%, which ‘far exceeds international standards’.
With RM105,800 Prime and RM119,800 Premium variants (promo prices for the first 3,000 buyers), the Proton eMas 7’s 218 PS/320 Nm front-mounted electric motor is fed by Geely’s Aegis short blade lithium iron..
