Proton Jebat
Jebat seems a bad boy name. That’s why, Jebat is more agressive by the inspiration of Proton Inspira/Lancer based model kitted with complete wide bodykit, wheels and black white color scheme.

It’s good that Proton uses our ancient warrior name for the model. This symbolize the patriotic spirit being promoted to our modern citizen and even to promote throughout the world.

    This concept Hang Lekiu SUV name sounds like 69 in Cantonese/Hakka but the Hero Defender of Sultan Malacca can be renamed with a stronger name with a stronger aggressively bolder nose like concept Hang Tuah and stronger shaped body outlook with larger alloy wheels but run by the more powerful Permanent Magnets Electric Motor say 100 Kw and with larger storage capacity batteries packs and probably the Range Extender is powered by the most efficient Direct Drive Micro-Turbine Generator under license from say Capstone, leader of the Micro-Turbine Technology using flexible fuels instead of a Petrol or Diesel Internal Combustion Engine with Regenerative Brakes that could send electricity to recharge the batteries packs. The Batteries Packs could be sourced from the most competitively priced sources probably from say BYD the Battery Leader with their new batteries’ technologies of producing cheap and affordable large storage capacity and safety of their Fe-battery Technology under license for their JV with Berjaya to produce the batteries locally. Every best wishes for the success of the first Malaysian made Proton E-REV SUV ok?

    Jebat and Lekir look like highly riced pirated Lotus & Mitsu cars. Just like Proton Wajas modded with bodykits to look like EVO. If I drive a Mitsu or Lotus, I’ll probably feel shortchanged. Kasturi is probably the only true-blue Proton vehicle. Lekiu is quite a nice effort of Proton to venture into the new Crossover platform. Tuah looks really good but is suspiciously looking like a Honda Civic or Kia Forte.

    These cars are coming straight from the Saudi Arabia the oil rich nation. This would be better for their for economy to produce world class cars which is till now dominated by Japan, Europe and America.
