According to The Star, he said the EV industry is new in Malaysia and has the potential to grow big, where we can even be a hub for its production. "EV are a new technology and requires investment. It has the potential to increase investment in Malaysia," he said. "If the government can provide attractive incentives to bring in investors, we can make Malaysia a hub for the production and distribution of EV components," said Proton's deputy CEO. Roslan also added that the existing EV incentives need to be extended, so that more consumers would be interested in adopting EVs. Even though Proton is currently not selling any electric vehicles, these comments by one of their top dogs clearly paint a picture for their future. Previously, Roslan mentioned that Proton will be producing their own EVs, and they will arrive by 2027. As it is, Proton is working with Smart Automobile Co Ltd, where they will be distributing smart vehicles in Malaysia by the end of this year. Proton has set up a wholly-owned subsidiary, Proton New Energy Technology Sdn Bhd (Pro-Net), and is inviting Malaysians to invest in it, as there are opportunities now to open EV dealerships set up under Pro-Net. ✕ Let's Connect on Whatsapp We protect your personal information in compliance with the PDPA I agree with Carlist.my Terms of Use and Privacy Policy.
