Geely Starry6 Unveiled in China – Could Become Next Proton e.MAS Model

Geely has officially launched the new Starry6 sedan in China, and it is widely expected to become the next model under the Proton e.MAS brand in Malaysia.

A four‑door family sedan, the Starry6 is positioned as an efficient plug‑in hybrid model, making it a strong candidate for Proton’s new energy lineup.

Key Specifications

Dimensions: 4,806 mm (L) × 1,886 mm (W) × 1,490 mm (H)
Wheelbase: 2,756 mm
Boot space: 609 litres
Fuel tank: 52 litres

It is sized similarly to a typical C‑segment sedan, focusing on space, comfort and practicality – ideal for family users.

Powertrain & Efficiency

The Starry6 uses Geely’s latest EM‑i 雷神 AI Hybrid 2.0 system.

1.5L engine: 82 kW (110 hp), 136 Nm
Front motor: 120 kW (161 hp), 210 Nm
Paired with E‑DHT transmission

Two LFP battery options:

8.5 kWh: 60 km CLTC pure electric range
17 kWh: 125 km CLTC pure electric range

Combined fuel consumption is rated at just 2.8–2.9 L/100 km (CLTC).

Why It Fits Proton e.MAS

Proton e.MAS currently has no sedan in its range, and the Starshine 6 would fill this gap perfectly.

It emphasises maturity, efficiency and family usability – matching Proton’s current product direction.

Proton has not officially confirmed the model for Malaysia, but platform sharing, mature hybrid technology and cost structure make it a strong and practical choice for the local market.
