Kuala Lumpur International Mobility Show (KLIMS 2026) is officially back at MITEC! Running from June 12 to 21, the theme this year is "Beyond Mobility," and local powerhouse Proton is pulling out all the stops at Hall 7, Level 2.
If you are planning your weekend trip, you might want to head straight to the Proton booth. From massive EV battery upgrades to literal robotic tech, here are the 5 major highlights you cannot afford to miss.

This is the big one. Proton is using center stage at KLIMS to host the official public preview of a brand-new, heavily upgraded flagship variant of the Proton e.MAS 7.
Word on the street is that underneath its familiar, sleek silhouette lies a massive new 68.39-kWh Aegis Short Blade battery pack. This mechanical heart transplant effectively boosts the EV's real-world driving range up to a stellar 475 km (WLTP) per charge! If you've been holding out on buying a national EV because of road-trip range anxiety, this variant might just change your mind.

2. Real-Life Humanoid Robot
Stepping directly into the next decade, Proton’s display isn’t just limited to vehicles on platforms. Visitors will get to interact with actual, fully functional Humanoid Robots roaming around the floor. It’s an exclusive showcase of how advanced artificial intelligence and automation are transitioning from high-tech automotive factories straight into daily human lifestyles.
3. The Mysterious 'FutureMotion' Hybrid Tech

Proton isn't leaving traditional combustion engines behind just yet. They are teasing an exciting new milestone called the FutureMotion HEV dedicated hybrid technology showcase. This marks a massive pivot for the national carmaker, especially since they completely dropped the old 48-volt mild hybrid system from the X90 lineup.
According to Proton's product roadmap, this isn't just a concept, it's a preview of a brand-new 1DHT dedicated hybrid transmission developed with Horse Powertrain. This smart tech is fully compatible with hybrid and plug-in hybrid models, and industry insiders are heavily touting it for upcoming vehicles like the highly anticipated AMA02 (affectionately dubbed the 'Saga Cross').
If you want a genuine glimpse of how Proton is shaping smarter energy and smoother motion for future Malaysian roads, this tech display is an absolute must-visit.
4. The Aggressive Proton X50 Sport Edition

For the petrolheads who prefer styling flair over battery cells, Proton is launching the X50 Sport Edition. Based on the latest facelift, this special edition comes equipped with an aggressive factory-fitted body kit, exclusive sports accessories, and a sleek presentation that signals a much sportier stance for the popular compact SUV.
5. Interactive Experiences (The Social Media Hotspots)
If you love futuristic tech, Proton is adding some very cool interactive and visual elements to their display area this year. You won’t miss the booth thanks to a massive 3D Anamorphic Display, which uses specialized screen tech to show off futuristic mobility concepts in striking, eye-catching detail.
You can also explore the Intelligent Mobility Zone to see how Proton is framing the future of driving tech.
To keep things fun, the booth features a Robotic Arm Blind Box Redemption station where visitors can interact with a precision robotic arm setup to redeem an exciting mystery blind box prize to take home... and many more! It makes for a great stop for both tech lovers and families looking for a unique activity.
