It’s been almost 20 years years since UMW Toyota Motor established Lexus Malaysia to represent the premium luxury brand. Over that time, the sales and aftersales network has grown progressively to cover different areas of the country.

Today, a new outlet joins the Lexus network with the official opening of Lexus Subang Jaya in the township of Subang Jaya, Selangor. The outlet is a fully integrated 3S (sales, service and spare parts) facility that provides the full range of services to customers and owners.

Here you are – the first details and pictures (including interior) of Proton’s second EV – the e.MAS 5. Breaking from past practice, Proton is allowing us to tell you almost everything about the new model except the price right away. The car, however, remains camouflaged and will remain so during the MISI 5 Tour around the country over the next 2 months.

Will it be another winner in the EV space like the e.MAS 7?

At PROTON, it’s not only about making and selling cars but also being a good corporate citizen and demonstrating corporate social responsibility (CSR). One of the CSR initiatives of the Malaysian automaker is helping to raise environmental awareness by partnering with Reef Check Malaysia, a non-profit organisation focused on coral reef conservation, to remove waste material from beaches.
