Proton eMas 7 Android Auto arrives – OTA update also brings screen brightness adjustment, enhanced BM

Based on information posted on the Proton eMas 7 Community Malaysia Facebook group, it looks like the over-the-air (OTA) update that brings Android Auto has finally arrived for the Proton eMas 7, just in time as promised earlier this year. The above photo was posted by user ExcellentFox8322, who says the OTA will be rolled out in batches.

Besides Android Auto, this OTA (version 1.2.0) also brings screen brightness adjustment, enhanced Bahasa Melayu optimisation and “additional system optimisations” – according to ExcellentFox8322, there is now a sound when you change driving modes, so this could be one of the improvements.

Proton’s first EV model got Apple CarPlay via OTA in August. This same OTA also brought alternatives (‘Galactic Note’ and ‘Space Walk’) to the ‘ice cream truck‘ low-speed pedestrian warning sound.
