Proton’s first electric vehicle (EV), the Proton e.MAS 7, has made a significant milestone by successfully completing the southern leg of its nationwide tour, covering 894km across Malaysia’s southern states. The journey is the first part of an over 2,000km tour that aims to introduce Malaysians to the future of sustainable mobility while showcasing the highly anticipated Proton e.MAS 7 ahead of its grand launch later this year.
