Proton recently unveiled the e.MAS 5 at the Malaysian Auto Show, and it is expected to debut by the end of this year. However, it seems like there is another model in the line-up. Friends at Soya Cincau reported a sighting of what could potentially be the e.MAS 3 at Proton Shah Alam.
Why e.MAS 3? Based on the shared images, the camouflaged EV appears to have smaller dimensions compared to the e.MAS 5. This is evident as the vehicle is seen parked between an e.MAS 5 and an e.MAS 7, where its compact size stands out.
Additionally, design cues such as the DRL LEDs and taillight styling closely resemble those found on the Geometry E Firefly (also known as the Geometry E), a model from an independent pure electric sub-brand within Geely Auto Group. It is currently available in mainland China and Myanmar.
Taking reference from the model available in Myanmar, it has full-width LED daytime running lights. It also comes with an LED headlight that is a fusion of a circle and a square. The rear also features LED taillights and a roof spoiler that is designed to look like a pair of wings. Other features include a sunroof and 16-inch alloy wheels.
The interior comes with a 10.25-inch infotainment screen and a 9.8-inch instrument cluster. It also has seats made from an eco-friendly material and a microfibre leather steering wheel. Other features include sun visors with make-up mirrors and front reading lamps. Furthermore, it also comes with a boot space of 295 litres.
As for the powertrain, it has a three-in-one electric drive system with an output of 60kW and 130Nm of torque. It is powered by a 39.3kWh LFP battery with a 401km range. The EV completes the century sprint in 15 seconds and can juice up from 30% to 80% in 30 minutes with a DC charger. Meanwhile, with an AC charger, it takes 7 hours to get a full charge.
As mentioned above, the camouflaged car could be a based on the Geometry E Firefly. If so, then these are the specs that we can expect from the EV.
