Verdict
At RM59,800, the Proton eMas 5 undercuts the Wuling Bingo’s RM67,800 by RM8,000 while bringing a 77 hp motor, five seats and a 2,650 mm wheelbase. Its 375-litre boot is 20 litres smaller, but it has rear air-con vents, a multi-link rear suspension and 3.3 kW V2L. The Bingo answers with the longer 273 km range from its 31.9 kWh battery, against 225 km and 30.12 kWh, plus LED projector headlamps and a powered driver’s seat. For a Malaysian household carrying five, the Proton is the more complete package; the Wuling suits buyers who place range first.
Pick the Proton eMas 5 if you need five seats, rear air-con vents, V2L and a lower RM59,800 entry price.
Pick the Wuling Bingo if its 273 km range, 395-litre boot and powered driver’s seat matter more than rear-seat capacity.
