Proton EMAS: New Proton Concept Car at Geneva International Motor Show with Pictures

Salam and hello to all. If you still don’t know Malaysia’s national car manufacture, Proton is currently developing their own concept car or maybe will go into production soon, here I tell you. The name of new Proton’s concept car is EMAS which stand for “Eco Mobility Advance Solution” and for the first time, it was shown at Geneva International Motor Show. Proton EMAS, it is a great name in my opinion.

This Proton EMAS concept car is the result of Proton collaboration with Lotus and Italdesign-Giugiaro, and as you can see from several pictures that I have shared below, only one word pop up in my mind “WOW!”. Something totally different from what Proton have produced before. I know some of you may say this is the result of foreign company, but well, knowing that this car is the result of collaboration of engineers from Proton and Lotus and designer from Italdesign-Giugiaro, I think as Malaysian, we should proud of this result. Well, I don’t know you, but me, I’m proud of it.

Well, just enjoy the pictures and leave some of your comments, words, opinions or maybe constructive critics about this new Proton EMAS concept car. All the pictures below are credited to Paultan.org and respected photographers who photograph these pictures.

Who is The Winner of The Contest “Namakan Proton MPV”?

Salam and hello all. This is a short entry from me and the purposes is just to share some information with you. Some of you maybe already know about the winner of this contest, but for those who don’t know who is the winner of the contest “Namakan Proton MPV” or “Name the Proton MPV” that has been organized by Proton last time, here is the answer. The winner is a lucky woman named Norsholihan Bt Abdul Eanich, who will get to drive this Proton Exora and own this 7-seater people mover once it is launched this April.

The name Proton Exora inspired from the name of a flower, Ixora and comes with the tagline “Keriangan Keluarga“. Hmm… Why not I’m thinking of this name last time? Haih…

p/s: It looks like many people searching for the keywords of “Proton Exora” and “Pictures of Proton Exora” lately

Proton Exora is The New Proton MPV’s Name

Salam and hello all. I think most of you already know about this new Proton MPV which will be launched this April 2009. I don’t really know what’s the point Proton told the media about the name of this new MPV earlier than the launch date, for promotion purposes probably? Or just a teaser? Whatever it is, a bit sad to hear that this new Proton MPV which now can be called Proton Exora will only be powered by 1.6 engine. Hello?! Come on Proton, your Proton Waja is already using 1.6 engine and for MPV also want to use the same engine? What do you expect?

By announcing this news yesterday, it means all the rumors that said this new Proton Exora will be using 1.8 engine are totally wrong and the price which expected around RM80k maybe will be less. So, what do you think? For me 1.6 engine is not so suitable for such a MPV that will carry at least 8 peoples inside it. I don’t know how to explain technically but the rough idea in my mind, a MPV at least should use 1.8 engine instead of 1.6 engine.

I don’t want to comment much, but from what others has commented in this entry, I can say that many people will be disappointed after Proton has announced some details of this Proton Exora.

p/s: I’ve changed my mind to recommend this MPV to my dad.
p/p/s: Who wins the contest “Namakan Proton MPV” that has been organized by Proton last time? Haha.
