Proton Emas

At first glance it looks pretty stylish with its design. I would have expected they hired some designer since ‘they’ always copy refurbish other’s design. It is pretty rare to find a new design from Proton itself.

According to the newspaper, this new car is invented to be the first global car, that Malaysia will be exporting it to European countries and also in conjunction of celebrating Proton’s 25th year since establishment. Based on the pictures, it seem to be rather a small car and most probably below 1.5cc.

The rear view is less appealing.

I am wondering if the top section is also made of glass? Would not it be expensive if the front mirror breaks?

The interior looks promising but it is still very Proton-ish. Everything are in blocks and squares. It is like some cheap plastic where you can hear 'empty sound' when you try knocking it.

No price of the vehicle is available at the moment. It was told to be an eco-friendly vehicle which uses pure-electric system. The technology includes touch-screen centre console, Internet browsing capabilities and etc.


There are three models, but I only find the first one attractive.

BTW, I find the name of this car is horrible. They got no sense of artistic when coming up with a name. It simply bring shame to those who are driving it.


For example:
Teacher: What car does your father drive?
Student1: Gen2!!
Student2: Myvi!
Student3: Emas.....

I feel that...
1. It has a horrible name.
2. If the top is made up of glass, how does it protect passengers from heat from the sun?

Thanks for sharing!
