Proton eMas EV and PHEV models to undergo evaluation by PDRM
Proton has officially handed over its new eMas 5, eMas 7 EV, and eMas 7 PHEV models to the Royal Malaysian Police (PDRM) for rigorous field testing. The initiative aims to evaluate the practical usability and performance of these electrified vehicles within law enforcement operations.
The handover, completed last week, serves as a critical step in assessing how Proton's latest electric and plug-in hybrid technologies perform under real-world duty cycles. By providing a mix of pure battery electric vehicles (BEV) and plug-in hybrids (PHEV), Proton is ensuring that the PDRM can test a variety of powertrain configurations. This process will focus on the vehicles' reliability, durability, and overall suitability for the multifaceted demands of police patrolling and emergency response.
To facilitate seamless testing, Gentari has committed to providing free charging support for the fleet, removing potential logistical barriers regarding energy consumption during the evaluation period. This partnership highlights the growing synergy between automotive manufacturers and energy providers in Malaysia's transition toward green mobility. Successful testing could potentially mark the beginning of a broader adoption of electrified fleets within the country's public services.
