Proton dealer SG Cars Sdn Bhd (SG Cars) has officially unveiled Malaysia’s first Proton e.MAS dealership at the Ideal Convention Centre (IDCC) in Shah Alam. This landmark showroom marks a significant milestone for Proton’s New Energy Vehicle (NEV) brand, Proton e.MAS, as it embarks on its journey toward sustainable mobility.
The launch event was graced by YB Tuan Lau Weng San, Speaker of the Selangor State Legislative Assembly; Roslan Abdullah, Deputy Chief Executive Officer of Proton; Zhang Qiang, CEO of PRO-NET; and Datuk Andrew Quek, Dealer Owner of SG Cars.
The opening of this dealership underscores the shared vision of Proton and SG Cars to deliver world-class sustainable automotive solutions. It represents a pivotal step in accelerating Malaysia’s adoption of electric mobility.
“We are proud to collaborate with SG Cars in launching the first Proton e.MAS dealership,” said Zhang Qiang, CEO of PRO-NET. “This initiative reflects our commitment to not only selling vehicles but creating hubs of education and innovation. Our aim is to deliver a premium, all-electric experience for Proton e.MAS customers while showcasing the cutting-edge EV technology driving the future of mobility.”
Proton e.MAS dealerships, managed under PRO-NET, are set to introduce elevated standards for sales and after-sales services. Sales assistants will be extensively trained to guide first-time EV owners on the nuances of EV ownership, ensuring customers feel confident in managing their vehicles.
Datuk Andrew Quek, Dealer Owner of SG Cars, emphasized the community benefits of the new dealership. “We are confident this showroom will not only meet the needs of the community but also contribute to the local economy by creating jobs and fostering appreciation for sustainable automotive technologies.”
PRO-NET has already appointed 37 dealers across Malaysia, with 30 expected to be fully operational by the end of 2024. To further enhance dealer expertise, a group of over 40 dealer principals and executives recently participated in a knowledge-sharing trip to the Geely Research Institute in Hangzhou, China. During the visit, participants explored Geely’s state-of-the-art technology and gained insights into premium EV customer care, sales strategies, and operational excellence.
As the EV revolution gains traction, PRO-NET is actively seeking passionate individuals and partners to grow its Proton e.MAS dealership network. For those eager to contribute to the local EV ecosystem and champion sustainable mobility, PRO-NET offers exciting career and partnership opportunities.
