Just came back from Pauline's ACE 2024 in Setia Alam. Proton announced their e.Mas 7 goes for RM120K! Rebate 1.5K for booking now. Suicide pricing for national car? Even if CKD, I doubt it can a lot lower.

120k is the price which already factor in Call back, car spare part replacement, perhaps may be compensate owner token appreciation loss of use car within warranty period.

So No worry and safe in mind.

Went to check out the car at ACE Setia Alam yesterday. It was the most popular car there, needed to wait very long to get a chance to sit in the car and check it out. IMO its a very good value package at the price range. Will definitely sell like hot cakes. I especially liked the sharp and responsive infotainment screen.

Personally my primary concern is with the Proton badging and its crappy aftersales. But then again all the other competitors like Xpeng G6 and Leapmotor C10 are unknown entities as well. Bermaz especially does not inspire trust.

On the other hand, the Leapmotor C10 was a good looking vehicle. The green one looked great and interior was decent but very spartan. However, the pricing is a big turn-off for what is supposed to be a cheap car. The car look impressive but it is very cheaply made.

With regards to EV, there is no incentive or point to develop in house, since China is too far ahead with regards to EV tech, even Conti EV oso cannot compete. Best way is to go back to basics and rebadge lor. Perodua been doing it since day 1 till today yet no one complains. At least Proton did try to build a car in house, even if it failed miserably.

Unfortunately, I suspect its basically the same for all new electric cars, not just Proton with the exception of those like BYD that has been around for almost 2 years now. The pioneers will have to deal with delays in getting things fixed fast.

Personally, felt the car overpriced. Since it will be locally made, it should make it below 100k for majority of people to easy transit to EV.

It is not locally made. It will be CBU, that's why price cannot below 100K.

Proton SA said that the RHD version is already being built in Tanjung Malim and the first batch will be from Tanjung Malim and not China. Anyone can confirm whether this is true?

How is e.MAS 7 interior build compared to C10? Better build? Nice feel to touch?

However, the eMas 7 will arrive as a fully-imported (CBU) EV, which means it cannot be priced under the RM100,000 minimum price cap that the government has set for CBU EVs until the end of next year. Locally assembling (CKD) the eMas 7 in Malaysia should allow it to be priced under said price cap, but it’s not revealed when or if this will happen.

I see. Not sure which is true, guess have to wait and see.

The interior touch and feel is quite similar - both are synthetic materials not real leather. Proton feels more plush. Both seem to have good build quality but the C10 looks nice from far due to the faux saddle brown colour and clean look. They also have a dark interior option but it was not displayed. But the C10 is really very minimalist with no buttons compared to the e.mas 7 which at least has some buttons. Unfortunately the e.mas 7 only has one interior colour option which is the dark blue which looks like black.

Atto3 and MG4 sales will be most impacted by this car

I don't think Model Y, Xpeng G6 or Smart need to worry much since they have the range and maybe branding advantage

Leapmotor? No android auto or apple carplay, under stellantis group some more (read more about their issues especially quality), got people really consider this?

Neta? Whoever buy this brand here really brave lol. no offence

also note that so far we only see the CLTC figures for emas7... they haven't released the WLTP range yet

starting from 120k should be the base range model? CLTC range 440km.... WLTP should be around 350km+

if you need a second car just for work commute and staying landed, then no problem...

Atto 3 offering RM21k discount now but I really cannot accept the interior. BYD needs to do a refresh of the interior or sell it much cheaper. MG4 interior really kosong, they need to lower their prices or refresh the interior soon to stay competitive. But among all these cars MG4 is probably the best driver's car.

Xpeng G6 nothing to worry about right now but I heard that Bermaz is planning to increase the price next year. Smart is a bit more niche market due to the size and price.

Leapmotor is distributed worldwide by Stellantis but not made by them. China car build quality nowadays seems to be quite good. I like the car and would have seriously considered if it launched at around RM130k. At RM159k, better get G6.

Neta I think will be one of the first cars to bungkus due to fierce competition.

On the emas 7 price, there seems to be some misinformation on whether the 120k is starting price or high spec price. I hope it is the high spec price.

Yes but since there's so many good EV brands from China why consider a niche brand? If really want to get a China branded EV might as well go for one which is more popular in their home country or worldwide.

Also no AA or AC at that price. Some might say it doesn't matter but to me unless your software is as good as Tesla it matters a lot. But then nowadays these cars also come with OTA update so they can easily add the feature in future

Another car I missed in direct competition with emas7 - Omoda E5. Probably in the same group as Atto 3 and MG4

This car is currently CBU imported from China so the cheapest it could go is 100k
