Verdict
The Premium costs RM119,800 and the Premium Plus RM125,800, so the RM6,000 gap is not buying faster performance: both use a 215 hp, 320 Nm front motor and reach 100 km/h in 6.9 seconds. It buys a 68.39 kWh battery instead of 60.22 kWh, taking stated range from 410 km to 450 km, plus 115 kW rather than 100 kW DC charging. The Plus also adds front-seat massage and a passenger leg rest. For most, Premium is the sharper spend; frequent inter-state EV users should pay up.
Pick the Proton eMas 7 Premium if you want the same 215 hp performance, 5-star ASEAN NCAP rating and key convenience kit while saving RM6,000.
Pick the Proton eMas 7 Premium Plus if its extra 40 km of stated range, faster 115 kW DC charging and more indulgent front seats matter to you.
