PROTON would like to announce the appointment of Roslan Abdullah, to the post of Deputy Chief Executive Officer. He officially assumed his duties on 1 January 2022. Previously, Roslan was the Vice President, Sales and Marketing for PROTON as well as Chief Executive Officer of Proton Edar Sdn Bhd (PESB), roles he had held since 1 June 2020.

Following 12 pandemic affected months, national car maker PROTON ended 2021 on a high note. By selling 14,147 units in December, total sales for the year closed at 114,708 units (domestic + export), the highest closing figure since 2014. This represents an increase of 4.5% over 2020 and is the third consecutive year of volume growth for the company. The achievement is particularly noteworthy as overall Total Industry Volume (TIV) for Malaysia is estimated to have shrunk by 4.6% to just over 505,000 units.

As the scale of the damage caused by the recent floods becomes more apparent, PROTON has announced an enhanced assistance package for its customers whose cars were damaged to ease their financial burden.
