While the identity of the second model is still under wraps, it&#8217;s heavily rumoured to be the <a href=\"https:\/\/paultan.org\/2024\/08\/22\/proton-emas-5-ev-rendered-geometry-xingyuan-base-byd-dolphin-rival-with-up-to-116-ps-410-km-range\/\">eMas 5<\/a>, based on the <a href=\"https:\/\/paultan.org\/2024\/10\/10\/geely-geometry-xingyuan-launched-in-china\/\">Geely Xingyuan<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>If proved correct, the electric hatchback would be a smaller, more affordable EV option for the mass market, and one that will likely rival Perodua&#8217;s own upcoming electric model that was recently previewed by the <a href=\"https:\/\/paultan.org\/2024\/12\/04\/perodua-emo-ii-concept-unveiled-full-size-show-car-previews-first-ev-0-100-km-h-6-7-secs-up-to-410-km-range\/\">eMO-II concept<\/a>. <\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/paultan.org\/2025\/01\/05\/proton-to-launch-second-ev-model-this-year-smaller-more-affordable-emas-5-to-take-on-perodua-emo-ev\/proton-emas-pj-showroom-launch-li-chunrong-1\/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-1868449\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/paultan.org\/image\/2025\/01\/Proton-eMas-PJ-showroom-launch-Li-Chunrong-1-630x354.jpg\" alt=\"Proton to launch second EV model this year &#8211; smaller, more affordable eMas 5 to take on Perodua eMO EV?\" width=\"630\" height=\"354\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-1868449\" srcset=\"https:\/\/paultan.org\/image\/2025\/01\/Proton-eMas-PJ-showroom-launch-Li-Chunrong-1-630x354.jpg 630w, https:\/\/paultan.org\/image\/2025\/01\/Proton-eMas-PJ-showroom-launch-Li-Chunrong-1-1200x675.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/paultan.org\/image\/2025\/01\/Proton-eMas-PJ-showroom-launch-Li-Chunrong-1-1260x709.jpg 1260w, https:\/\/paultan.org\/image\/2025\/01\/Proton-eMas-PJ-showroom-launch-Li-Chunrong-1-750x422.jpg 750w, https:\/\/paultan.org\/image\/2025\/01\/Proton-eMas-PJ-showroom-launch-Li-Chunrong-1-850x478.jpg 850w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 630px) 100vw, 630px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>In China, the Geely Xingyuan was launched in October 2024, with a CLTC-rated range of up 410 km (closer to 350 km on the WLTP cycle). We will have to wait and see if the Proton eMas 5 will have similarly small 30.12 and 40.16 kWh battery options here. The larger eMas 7 gets a choice of 49.52 and 60.22 kWh battery packs, with a claimed range of 345 km and 410 km respectively on the WLTP cycle.<\/p>\n<p>Last September, we reported that <a href=\"https:\/\/paultan.org\/2024\/09\/26\/proton-emas-dealers-shown-the-geometry-xingyuan-in-china-smaller-ev-coming-to-malaysia-as-emas-5\/\">local Proton dealers were shown the Geely Xingyuan<\/a> during a group visit in China, fuelling rumours that the smaller EV model is being considered as an eMas model. It&#8217;s now looking more and more likely that that is indeed the case. <\/p>\n<p>The question is when and of course, how much? The Proton eMas 7 starts from RM105,800, so it&#8217;s natural to expect the far smaller sibling to perhaps fall below the RM100k mark. However, it will have to be locally assembled in Malaysia to carry a five-figure price tag. The eMas 7 is currently fully imported from China.<\/p>\n<p>The post <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/paultan.org\/2025\/01\/05\/proton-to-launch-second-ev-model-this-year-smaller-more-affordable-emas-5-to-take-on-perodua-emo-ev\/\">Proton to launch second EV model this year &#8211; smaller, more affordable eMas 5 to take on Perodua eMO EV?<\/a> appeared first on <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/paultan.org\/\">Paul Tan&#039;s Automotive News<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We are only a few days into 2025, but Proton CEO Dr Li Chunrong has already confirmed that the national car company will launch its second all-electric model this year.
