As promised, the Proton eMas 7 (stylised as e.MAS 7) made its public debut during the National Day parade on Saturday, August 31 as part of a 25-car contingent. The presence of the national carmaker’s first electric vehicle, first previewed to the media early last month, gave those present a good first look at the car ahead of its launch at the end of the year.
The eMas 7’s design, shared with its Geely Galaxy E5 twin, was covered by a specially-designed camouflage bearing the colours of the Jalur Gemilang, as well as various greetings from around the world – again hinting at Proton’s possible global aspirations.
“Seeing the e.MAS 7 in action was a moment of national pride, showcasing our commitment to building a greener mobility for Malaysia,” said Pro-Net CEO Zhang Qiang. “This debut not only highlights our dedication to innovation excellence but also reinforces the connection between our brand and the Malaysian people, making it an indelible milestone in our journey toward an electric future.”
