DRB-Hicom is working on introducing a foreign partner to Proton Holdings Bhd, reported The Star recently. Group GM Datuk Seri Mohd Khamil Jamil revealed that talks have been taking place with a select few foreign strategic partners (FSP) on the benefits they could provide to Proton and DRB-Hicom.

He added that the foreign partnership proposal was still in a preliminary stage. “We are keeping the house in order first before we are ready to bring in any foreign original equipment manufacturer (OEMs),” he said after the group’s AGM.

Aiming for the country’s top spot in terms of sales this year, DRB-Hicom recently raised Proton’s sales target from 167,000 to 200,000 units for the current financial year ending March 31, 2013, Bernama reported. According to Khamil, 100,000 cars have been sold since January.

KUALA LUMPUR: Proton is expected to roll out its hybrid electric vehicles by 2014.

International Trade and Industry Minister Datuk Seri Mustapa Mohamed told Parliament that Proton, like many other car manufacturers, is focused on moving towards producing environmentally friendly cars.

Proton is currently collaborating with UK-based Frazer-Nash Research (FNR) firm to develop its own electric vehicle models.

This is based on the firm's capability in developing its own intellectual patent in alternative and green technology.

Mustapa said in a reply to Azmin Ali (PKR-Gombak) that Proton had allocated RM500mil for research and development (R&D) in green technology and is expected to gain profits after commercialising it in 2014.

Azmin had asked the ministry to state the rational of investment by Proton through Frazer-Nash Research (FNR) to develop its own hybrid cars.

Mustapa said that Proton's investment in green technology R&D compared to other multinational car manufacturers was much smaller.

For instance, General Motors spends about USD1.2bil to develop its green car Chevrolet Volt while Nissan-Renault had allocated USD5.6bil for the same purpose.

Allegations that Proton spent some RM270mil to test 30 cars and each cost about RM9mil were also untrue, Mustapa said.

They are attempts by the opposition to confuse the public, he said.

He also denied allegations that Proton had not met its target to produce hybrid cars commercially by 2011.

Macam mana lak kerjasama dengan Mitsubishi yg kita sign hari tu dah tamat ker. Kalau dengan honda nie ermm memang beruntung la Proton ... sebab zaman sekarang kalau sesuatu syarikat automotif tak buat usahasama memang susah la. Tgk mcm nissan dengan renault tu yg boleh keluar GTR baru sebab boss paling atas dier pun dah org renault jugak .. lg pun masa tu nissan dah agak sesak .. aper tahniah n satu tindakan yg bijak buat proton.

kerjasama dgn mitsubishi hanya utk model Inspira sahaja...

ipar duai aku habag kerjasama dgn mitsubishi yg berkait dengan Lancer/Inspira pasal enjin Mivec jugak. kerana memerlukan enjin 2.0 Mivec untuk kegunaan kenderaan model besar proton kita diminta untuk mencapai kuota dan kerana itu kerjasama ini dilaksanakan supaya proton melalui model inspira boleh mencapai kuota. walaubagaimanapun dgn kemasukan model baru preve yg menggunakan enjin kecil menyebabkan kerjasama ini mungkin terpaksa dibatal kerana kekurangan tempahan. wallahualam!

kerjasama dgn honda tu aku rasa untuk honda gunakan facility proton untuk assemble kereta honda dalam m'sia ni (dgr nya nak beat thailand)...so bagi aku keuntungan pada pihak honda aja.....anyway kalau korang nak tau drb ni seolah2 nak "mempergunakan" proton untuk kepentingan business depa jah (pendapat aku semata-mata)....patutnya jual proton kpd giant car maker mcm VW ka, Renault ka ford ka, merc ka baru la ada perubahan besar disertai technology leap yg jauh ...my 2.50 cent
