At first glance this looks like just any other Proton Exora, except for the fact that even after it has been launched for quite some time now Proton found it necessary to put generous amounts of black tape on it. The lower fog lamp area peeks out from the taped up sections and what we can see is the old pre-MC update fog lamps without the chrome.
But the headlamp is very much covered up – there could be some kind of facelift headlamp hiding in there. Or it could simply be an old mule with the headlamps taped up from before and not removed.
This is where it gets interesting. The rear muffler is different. I don’t think there would be any reason to have a new rear muffler installed on a mule, other than to test a completely new powertrain and/or driveline ;)
Big thanks to the photographer Asan Taring for these! They were snapped en route to Malacca. According Asan and his friend, the rear end of this vehicle looked pretty different from a regular Exora. This is all so very mysterious!

AI-generated Summary ✨
Comments predominantly suggest that the car in the photos has a lower roofline, wider stance, and sportier profile resembling a Caldina, indicating a likely turbocharged Exora or a new Proton model. Many believe it's a test mule for a turbo version, possibly with a facelift or sporty styling, featuring a prominent muffler and intercooler placement. Some comments even speculate about different engine options, body styles, or completely new models, with generally positive sentiments about Proton's potential innovations.
