SHAH ALAM: The all-electric Proton e.MAS 7 recently completed a 352km round trip (which was livestreamed) from Shah Alam to Melaka and Port Dickson and back - on a single charge.
The journey was organised by Proton subsidiary Pro-Net (Proton New Energy Technology) and featured the e.MAS 7 Prime variant, which offers a WLTP range of 345km.
The journey kicked off at the Proton Centre of Excellence (COE) and included stops at Seremban R&R and a Proton e.MAS dealership in Melaka and return via the same route.
It covered a mix of highways, city traffic, and diverse driving conditions, thus simulating a real-world ownership experience.
By the end of the drive, the e.MAS 7 had 43km of remaining range, bringing the total estimated range to 395km - exceeding its official WLTP-rated range.
Pro-Net had streamed the entire journey live, offering audiences an unfiltered look at the e.MAS 7 Prime in action.
Viewers gained real-time insights as Pro-Net chief branding officer Salawati Mohd Yusoff joined product experts and key opinion leaders in EV (electric vehicle) mobility to discuss essential aspects of EV ownership, including driving range, charging infrastructure, battery management, and advanced EV technology.
“This journey proves that an EV can seamlessly fit into any lifestyle—whether commuting to the office, managing daily errands as a busy parent, running a small business, or embarking on long-distance trips and sightseeing adventures. While many worry about range anxiety, but this test drive demonstrated just how far the Proton e.MAS 7 can go, delivering confidence as a conventional car.,” she said in a statement.
To date, over 1,000 units of e.MAS 7 have been delivered.
Pro-Net will be holding Raya Ikonik celebrations at Proton e.MAS dealerships on March 15 and 16 which offer exclusive deals and exciting activities.
