Ahead of its December launch, Proton has provided a sneak preview of its first-ever production EV. The new electric SUV is now officially called the Proton e.MAS7.
We also get to see two actual pre-production units of e.MAS7 at the media preview today. However, they were covered in camouflaged wrapping and have heavily tinted windows in order to hide their interior.For one, Proton insists that the e.MAS7 is not a rebadged Geely Galaxy E5. Instead, the automaker said that the e.MAS7 was co-developed with Geely and has been engineered to deliver driving dynamics that can withstand Malaysian roads.
For example, e.MAS7 is a C-segment electric SUV that is 4,615mm long, 1,901mm wide and 1,670mm tall while it also has a 2,750mm wheelbase. It is the first model to be built using Proton-Geely’s Global Modular Architecture platform which is why the e.MAS7 is also known by its GMA 01 codename. Similar to Galaxy E5, the e.MAS7 is also equipped with the new LFP-based Aegis Short Blade battery. In addition to that, the new EV also has a cell-to-body implementation which Proton said not only helps maximise the space utilisation of the vehicle but also helps provide a better ride & handling experience.
