Pro-Net, the new energy vehicle (NEV) arm of Proton, has announced it has delivered 1,000 units of the eMas 7. This achievement comes a little over two months after the Proton’s first electric vehicle (EV) went on sale last December.
“The success of the eMas 7 is a reflection of our commitment to providing a compelling EV proposition that aligns with the needs of Malaysian consumers. Our goal is not just to sell cars but to foster a complete ecosystem that ensures a seamless and confident transition to electric mobility,” said Zhang Qiang, CEO of Pro-Net.
In an official release, the company said it had secured over 4,500 bookings for the eMas 7. It added that it was confident that the figure will increase to 6,000 bookings soon with the extension of a special launch package that provides exclusive pricing for the first 6,000 customers (previously 3,000).
With the promo, the base Prime variant retails for RM105,800 (instead of RM109,800), while the top-spec Premium can be had RM119,800 (instead of RM123,800) – these are on-the-road prices excluding insurance.
The eMas 7 was the best-selling EV in Malaysia in January this year, with 421 units registered according to data from the road transport department (JPJ). The company also noted the eMas 7 currently commands a 25% share of the local EV market.
