Proton eMas EV and PHEV models undergo PDRM evaluation with Gentari charging support
Proton has officially initiated the testing phase for its new eMas electrified lineup by handing over several models to the Royal Malaysian Police (PDRM). The evaluation will focus on the eMas 5, eMas 7 EV, and eMas 7 PHEV to determine their operational suitability for law enforcement duties.
The handover includes a diverse range of electrified powertrains, specifically the eMas 5, the all-electric eMas 7, and the plug-in hybrid eMas 7 PHEV. By integrating these vehicles into PDRM’s active fleet, Proton aims to gather comprehensive data regarding their real-world usability, durability, and performance under the rigorous demands of police patrolling. This field testing is a crucial step in validating the readiness of Proton's new energy vehicles for high-stakes, professional-grade applications.
To facilitate the testing process and minimize logistical hurdles, energy provider Gentari has committed to providing free charging services for the vehicles. This collaboration emphasizes the critical intersection of automotive innovation and charging infrastructure development within Malaysia. The outcome of this trial could potentially set a precedent for the widespread adoption of electric and hybrid vehicles within Malaysia's public sector and broader government fleets.
