In Cars, Local News, Proton / by Jonathan James Tan / 6 August 2026 10:11 amProton has announced that it exported 1,398 cars in July, saying in a release that its best export month since March 2013 was driven by stronger demand and regional production activities at the Tanjong Malim plant. “Growing export demand demonstrates the increasing quality of vehicles produced in Malaysia. As regional production activities continue to expand, they will enhance plant utilisation, strengthen our local supply chain and create new opportunities for Malaysian vendors. “Together with our domestic business, exports will become an increasingly important contributor to Proton’s sustainable long-term growth,” said Proton deputy CEO Datuk Abdul Rashid Musa. Proton’s export target this year is 12,000.
