KUALA LUMPUR: The first-ever official gathering for both existing and future Proton e.MAS 7 owners was held recently at Proton DX centre in Quill City Mall, Kuala Lumpur.
The "Proton e.MAS Pioneer Teh Tarik Sesh" event was organised by Proton subsidiary Pro-Net, and aimed to spark real conversations — about the joys, challenges, and future of electric mobility in Malaysia.
The session featured two interactive discussions where more than 100 valuable insights, experiences, and feedback points were exchanged.
Participants — including EV (electric vehicle) advocates, early adopters, and those contemplating their first EV — shared their experiences and explored ways to enhance the EV journey.
Experts from soyacincau.com along with Pro-Net experts, led engaging conversations on key topics such as the transition to EVs, cost advantages over ICE vehicles, charging accessibility, and how the e.MAS 7 enhances modern mobility.
The open format allowed attendees to ask questions, speak about their personal experiences, and gain practical knowledge about electric vehicle ownership.
Reflecting on the e.MAS 7’s performance, Pro-Net chief branding officer Salawati Mohd Yusoff said: “EV adoption is still new for many, and we want to ensure they feel supported every step of the way. By engaging directly with owners and future adopters, we are not just delivering a product — we are building a community that is confident in embracing a new era of mobility.”
Among the e.MAS 7 owners was Ahmad Yumnie Adanan who said his decision to buy the car was inspired by his son.
He said he was impressed by how spacious the e.MAS 7 was, making it easy for him to fit a stroller and install a baby seat easily.
“Space is important when you have a child, and the e.MAS 7 gives us that comfort. It’s practical for a family like mine,” he added.
Muhamad Iskandar Abdul Rahman was among the earliest to book the e.MAS 7.
He was drawn to its affordability, advanced technology, and the assurance that Proton’s extensive service network would make maintenance convenient.
“I never regretted switching to an EV. The technology, the savings, the convenience — after this, no more ICE (internal combustion engine) cars for me.”
