SUBANG JAYA, Aug 7 — Proton e.MAS says it has become the fastest automotive brand in Malaysia to surpass 30,000 electrified vehicle (xEV) registrations, reaching 31,504 units just 20 months after launching its first model.
The company said 30,293 of those registrations were in Malaysia as of July 31, while another 1,211 units had been exported since it entered overseas markets.
The milestone comes after Proton e.MAS exceeded 20,000 registrations in 2026 alone, already surpassing its total sales for the whole of 2025 within the first half of the year.
Chief executive officer Zhang Qiang said the achievement reflected growing consumer confidence in electric mobility and the rapid pace of EV adoption in Malaysia.
“Surpassing 30,000 Proton e.MAS registrations in just 20 months reflects the growing confidence Malaysians have in electric mobility and demonstrates how quickly xEVs have become part of everyday consideration for car buyers,” he said in a press statement.
The company said it now has 58 dealerships, 45 service centres and 10 body and paint centres nationwide, alongside an integrated charging map listing more than 4,700 charging points covering over 90 per cent of the country.
Proton e.MAS also said it had invested an additional RM37 million to expand the capacity of its dedicated EV assembly plant from 20,000 to 42,000 units a year to meet rising domestic demand and support exports.
It added that all three Proton e.MAS models are now assembled locally, with the Proton e.MAS 7 plug-in hybrid currently incorporating 30 per cent local content.
