Proton Drives into Trinidad and Tobago with its First Electric Vehicle
Proton Expands Global Reach with Launch of e.MAS 7 EV in Trinidad and Tobago Proton, Malaysia's leading automotive company, continues to make strides in the global market. The company recently launched its first electric vehicle (EV), the Proton e.MAS 7, in Trinidad and Tobago. This marks a significant expansion for Proton, as Trinidad and Tobago becomes only the second export market for the e.MAS 7, following Nepal. The launch event, held in Port of Spain, Trinidad and Tobago, was a significant occasion. It showcased Proton's commitment to electric mobility and its growing international presence. Ansar Motors, a long-term business partner of Proton, played a key role in the launch. "The launch of the e.MAS 7 in Trinidad and Tobago underscores Proton's commitment to expanding the adoption of EVs in international markets," said Edmon Lim Meng Tong, Proton's director of international sales. "We are confident that the e.MAS 7, with its advanced technology and safety features, will resonate with consumers in this market." The e.MAS 7 itself is a compelling offering. It boasts a five-star ASEAN NCAP safety rating, providing peace of mind to drivers. With a maximum range of 410 kilometers on a single charge, it addresses range anxiety, a common concern among potential EV buyers. The vehicle's launch in Trinidad and Tobago represents a promising step towards a greener future for the region and underscores Proton's commitment to sustainable transportation.
