The Proton eMAS 5 (stylised as e.MAS 5) has amassed 3,000 bookings in just one week since the opening of order books, with a remarkable 1,607 orders recorded within 24 hours of the Open for Booking announcement livestream on 4 October, Pro-Net, the new-energy vehicle subsidiary of national carmaker Proton, announced in a press release today.
Pro-Net attributes the strong debut of the eMAS 5 to the continued success of its larger sibling, the Proton eMAS 7 (stylised as e.MAS 7), which dominates the Malaysian market and reinforces consumer confidence. As of 30 September, the Proton eMAS 7 has recorded cumulative sales of 6,655 units — 6,212 sold locally and 443 exported. With a commanding 24% market share, the eMAS 7 remains the nation’s best-selling electric vehicle (EV) for nine consecutive months.

The Proton eMAS 5 will be available in two variants, with prices estimated between RM60,000 and RM80,000. For now, only the specifications of the range-topping Premium variant have been revealed.
It’s powered by a rear-mounted electric motor producing 116 hp (85 kW) and 150 Nm, enabling the eMAS 5 Premium to sprint from 0-50 km/h in 3.9 seconds. Power is sourced from a 40.16 kWh CATL-sourced lithium iron phosphate (LFP) battery pack, offering a range of up to 325 km (WLTP).
Charging is supported at up to 6.6 kW AC and 71 kW DC, with the latter allowing a 30-80% recharge in just 21 minutes. In China, the base variant of its donor car, the Geely Xingyuan, comes with a smaller 30.12 kWh battery, offering around 250 km of range, along with slightly less power.

“The booking numbers exceeded our expectations. We are thankful that Malaysians continue to put their trust in us to deliver electric vehicles specifically tailored for Malaysia’s road and driving habits,” he added.
