SHAH ALAM, Jan 9 (Bernama) -- Proton Holdings Bhd expects to complete the consolidation of its two plants by year-end, said group managing director Datuk Syed Zainal Abidin Syed Mohamed Tahir.
Proton has two manufacturing plants in Shah Alam, Selangor and Tanjung Malim, Perak.
"Currently, feasibility studies are going on. We expect to finalise them by year-end," he told reporters at Proton's 2010 Family Day celebration held in conjunction with its 25th year anniversary here on Saturday.
Syed Zainal, however, did not reveal details.
The Tanjung Malim manufacturing plant, which is five times larger than the Shah Alam plant, is capable of producing multi-model products on a common line, allowing flexibility in production change to meet the changing market demands.
Meanwhile, Syed Zainal said, Proton would participate in the 2010 International Geneva Motor Show for the first time.
The annual show, held in March in the Swiss city of Geneva, is one of the most important on the automotive firms' calendar as all the major carmakers will be there.
"We have come of age and the participation shows that the Proton brand is growing," he said.
He said Proton would use the seven-seater Exora multi-purpose vehicle to penetrate the Middle East market in the second quater of this year.
"Currently, the Exora, which was launched in April 2009, is in Brunei, Singapore, Thailand and Indonesia. And 2,300 units have been sold in Asean alone," he said.
Syed Zainal said Proton has received 38,000 bookings for the Exora and 24,000 units were on the road.
The Exora is priced from RM72,000 to RM76,000.
He said the Exora has beaten its competitors and this was a good barometer.
Earlier, Proton adviser, Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad, said the company has taken the lead in the local market again in its sales volume.
"Be more innovative, think out of the box. It's not only about changing the shape of the car but also changing performances," he said after launching the Family Day.
The Family Day, held for the first time, attracted more than 10,000 family members and staff.

|
| CAMPRO CPS ENGINE TECHNOLOGY (CPS & VIM) |
|
|
The Campro engine utilizes two ingenious technologies to give high power and rapid response, whilst maintaining low fuel consumption. Cam Profile Switching (CPS) and Variable Intake Manifold (VIM) technology.
Together, these technologies give the best if both worlds, essentially combining the best characteristics of two different engines in one compact package. The usual reduction in peak torque caused by High Lift cams is corrected by the Long Runner. The short runner works with the high lift cams to re-tune the engine and generate more power at high speed.
|
|
 |
|
|
|
| CPS & VIM : How It Works |
|
|
Engines create power from combusting a mixture of fuel and air. Valve lift creates a gap to draw air into the combustion chamber, and this gap influences the ratio of air in the mixture. Ordinary engines have fixed rate of valve lift, but Cam Profile Switching gives variable valve lift, for optimised airflow into the engine. A High Lift cam profile improves maximum power, whilst the Low profile offers fuel efficiency and low emissions.
Air is supplied to the valves by the engine’s intake manifold. Variable intake Manifold technology intelligently changes the rate of “breathing” according to the engine speed. At low speed, air will drawn through the Long Runner manifold. The resulting slower air flow allows more efficient, thorough mixing of air with fuel. At high speeds, the Short Runner takes over to supply more air for combustion, faster.
|
|
|
|
|
| IAFM (Intake Air Flow Module) |
|
|
The CAMPRO engine is now enhanced with a new air intake management system - the Intergrated Air Fuel Module (IAFM) technology. It helps the engine "breathe" better at offer you the best of both worlds - greater fuel efficiency at low speeds and better performance at high speeds. Be it a short one to the shops or a cross-state roadtrip, every drive will be one you'll enjoy.

Proton received an encouraging number of bookings at the recently concluded Thailand International Motor Expo 2009, which was held from 2 to 13 December in Bangkok. The company’s order books were filled with 1,388 bookings from a total of 25,220 orders placed at the Expo.
In fact, Proton recorded higher figures than all brands except for Toyota, Honda, Isuzu, Mazda and Mitsubishi, most of which have pick-ups in their range. Not bad at all for a relatively new player in the market.
The Exora, which made its Thai debut at the show, was the best selling Proton model with 825 bookings, or almost 60 per cent of total orders. The Savvy was the next best-seller with 270 units. Proton’s MPV is priced from 700,000 baht in Thailand, while its supermini starts from 399,000 baht. Meanwhile, 155 people put their names down for the Persona CNG, which is powered by compressed natural gas.
Since entering the Thai market in 2007, Proton has successfully placed itself among the top 10 brands in passenger car sales and things are definitely looking up for them in the Land of Smiles.
