PROTON has shared that recently the company delivered 50 Proton Iriz vehicles to Metro Driving Academy. The students will use these vehicles at their campuses in areas such as Subang and Puchong.

Deputy Chief Executive Officer of PROTON, Roslan Abdullah stated ‘’We are grateful for the confidence demonstrated by Metro Driving Academy and hope that this will encourage more driving schools to consider adding a Proton to their fleet.

‘’Driving schools are a great touchpoint for PROTON to get closer to the younger generation. With the collaboration with Metro Driving Academy, we can showcase the USPs offered by our products and tap into the psyche of potential first-time car buyers’’ he added.


For new drivers, Proton Iriz is a good choice because its combination of manoeuvrability, compact dimensions, and safety make it unimposing from behind the wheel.

Also, the model was awarded a 5-star ASEAN NCAP rating and comes with a comprehensive list of safety features such as reinforced body structure using Hot Press Formed (HPF) steel, Electronic Stability Control (ESC), Traction Control System (TCS) and Hill Hold Assist (HHA).


Aside from that, there are features like reverse camera and parking sensors to provide visual and audible parking assistance including ECO mode switch which encourages more efficient driving resulting in better fuel consumption.

PROTON also noted the vehicles were changed in compliance with the guidelines established by the Road Transport Department and were constructed by ACE, a division of Proton Global Services that specialises in custom builds and modifications.
