I had read the news regarding the EV and REEV(hybrid) by Proton lately. Proton had speculated when it is launching (2013) and even an estimated price tag…
A little bit upset again when I saw how the high level management could just simply throw out word and sentences which they knew is untrue.
The key to success for an EV to be marketed depends on the country infrastructure – setting up of charging station or battery exchange station. Charging of an EV took at least 2 hours and as far as I know, the shorter the charging time, the shorter the battery last. Unless there is a breakthrough with this battery technology, the EV is just an prototype….It would be different for an hybrid car, charging take place when the driver hit the breaks. Hybird car is not charging station dependant,a certain amount of hybrid car running around and if the Proton could produce something other than the prototype, a mass production model could be launched NOW instead of 2 years later…that mean – they are not readied….just another "others can so we BOLEH" tactics….
Too many similar examples occurred in the past – the astronaut, female arctic adventurer, Mt. Everest Climber…..and the origin : PROTON…
Yes, Malaysian got to enjoy budget car with so less safety feature….just because foreign car had to be taxed….
