I-PROTON YETHULA u-e.MAS 7: ISINYATHELO ESIBHEKE KUKUSASA ELILISHA LE-MALAYSIA

Umkhiqizi wezimoto waseMalaysia i-Proton yethule imoto yokuqala kagesi ekhiqizwe ekhaya, i-e.MAS 7, esinyathelweni esikhulu esibheke kwezokuthutha ezisimeme. I-SUV entsha kagesi, enenani eliqala ku-RM105,800 (172,000 RMB) futhi ikhuphukela ku-RM123,800 (201,000 RMB) ngemodeli ephezulu, iphawula isikhathi esibalulekile embonini yezimoto yase-Malaysia.

Njengoba izwe lifuna ukuqinisa izinhloso zalo zokufaka ugesi, ukwethulwa kwe-e.MAS 7 kulindeleke ukuthi kuvuselele imakethe yasekhaya yezimoto zikagesi, ekade igcwele izikhondlakhondla zamazwe ngamazwe ezifana noTesla kanyeBYD.

Umhlaziyi wezimoto u-Nicholas King unethemba ngesu lentengo le-e.MAS 7, ukholelwa ukuthi lizoba nomthelela omkhulu emakethe yendawo yezimoto zikagesi. Uthe: “Le ntengo nakanjani izozamazamisa imakethe yendawo yezimoto zikagesi,” ephakamisa ukuthi amanani ancintisanayo akwaProton angase akhuthaze abathengi abaningi ukuba bacabangele izimoto ezisebenza ngogesi, ngaleyo ndlela basekele isifiso sikahulumeni waseMalaysia sekusasa eliluhlaza. I-e.MAS 7 ingaphezu nje kwemoto; imele ukuzibophezela ekusimamiseni imvelo kanye nokuguqukela ezimotweni zamandla amasha ezisebenzisa izibaseli zezimoto ezingajwayelekile.

I-Malaysian Automotive Association (MAA) isanda kumemezela ukuthi ukuthengiswa kwezimoto sekukonke kwehlile, njengoba ukuthengwa kwezimoto ezintsha ngoNovemba sekufinyelele kumayunithi angama-67,532, kwehle ngo-3.3% kunenyanga edlule no-8% kunonyaka odlule. Kodwa-ke, ukuthengiswa okuhlanganisiwe kusuka ngoJanuwari kuya kuNovemba kufinyelele amayunithi angama-731,534, okudlula unyaka wonke wangonyaka odlule. Lo mkhuba ukhombisa ukuthi yize ukuthengiswa kwezimoto ngokwesiko kungase kwehle, imakethe yezimoto ezintsha zamandla kulindeleke ukuthi ikhule. Umgomo wokuthengisa wonyaka ogcwele wamayunithi angu-800,000 usafinyeleleka, okubonisa ukuthi imboni yezimoto ivumelana nezimo ezinguqukweni ezithandwa ngabathengi futhi iyakwazi ukuqina.

Uma sibheka phambili, inkampani yendawo yokutshala izimali i-CIMB Securities ibikezela ukuthi izimoto ezidayisiwe zingase zehle zifike ku-755,000 ngonyaka ozayo, ikakhulukazi ngenxa yokuqaliswa kukahulumeni kwenqubomgomo entsha yokuxhaswa kukaphethiloli i-RON 95. Naphezu kwalokhu, umbono wokuthengisa wezimoto zikagesi ezihlanzekile uhlala ulungile. Imikhiqizo emibili yasendaweni, iPerodua neProton, kulindeleke ukuthi igcine isabelo semakethe esiphezulu esingu-65%, okugqamisa ukwamukelwa okukhulayo kwezimoto zikagesi phakathi kwabathengi baseMalaysia.

Ukunyuka kwezimoto zamandla amasha, njenge-e.MAS 7, kuhambisana nenkambiso yomhlaba wonke ebheke kwezokuthutha ezisimeme. Izimoto ezintsha zamandla, ezihlanganisa izimoto ezisebenza ngogesi, izimoto eziyingxubevange kanye nezimoto ezisebenza ngogesi zamaseli kafuel, zenzelwe ukunciphisa umthelela emvelweni. Asebenzisa ugesi ngokuyinhloko futhi awakhiqizi amapayipi aphuma emlonyeni, ngaleyo ndlela asize ekuhlanzeni umoya nokudala indawo enempilo. Lolu shintsho aluzuzisi i-Malaysia kuphela, kodwa futhi luhambisana nemizamo yomhlaba wonke yokulwa nokuguquguquka kwesimo sezulu kanye nokukhuthaza intuthuko esimeme.

Izinzuzo zezimoto zamandla amasha azigcini nje ngokuhambisana nemvelo, kodwa futhi zinokusebenza kahle kokuguqulwa kwamandla kanye nokusetshenziswa kwamandla okuphansi uma kuqhathaniswa nezimoto ezijwayelekile zikaphethiloli. Ngaphezu kwalokho, izimoto zikagesi zinezindleko eziphansi zokusebenza, okuhlanganisa amanani aphansi kagesi kanye nezindleko eziphansi zokuwulungisa, okuzenza zibe inketho ekwazi umnotho kubathengi. Izimoto zikagesi ziyasebenza futhi zingaxazulula inkinga yokungcoliswa komsindo wasemadolobheni futhi zithuthukise izinga lempilo ezindaweni eziminyene.
Ngaphezu kwalokho,izimoto ezintsha zamandlahlanganisa amasistimu okulawula ama-elekthronikhi athuthukile ukuze kuthuthukiswe ukuphepha nokunethezeka, kanye nemisebenzi efana nokushayela okuzenzakalelayo kanye nokupaka okuzenzakalelayo iya ngokuya iduma, okubonisa ukuqhubeka kobuchwepheshe bezokuthutha enkathini entsha. Njengoba amazwe emhlabeni wonke amukela ngenkuthalo lezi zinqubo ezintsha, isimo samazwe ngamazwe sezimoto ezisebenza ngamandla amasha siyaqhubeka nokuba ngcono, sibe yisisekelo sezixazululo zohambo zesikhathi esizayo.

Sengiphetha, ukwethulwa kwe-e.MAS 7 yiProton kuyingqophamlando embonini yezimoto yaseMalaysia futhi kuwubufakazi bokuzibophezela kwezwe ekuthuthukisweni okusimeme. Njengoba umphakathi womhlaba ubeka ukugcizelela okwandayo kubuchwepheshe obuluhlaza, imizamo yaseMalaysia yokukhuthaza izimoto ezisebenza ngogesi ngeke kusize nje ukufeza imigomo yendawo yendawo, kodwa futhi ihambisane nezinhlelo zamazwe ngamazwe okuhloswe ngazo ukunciphisa ukukhishwa kwekhabhoni. I-e.MAS 7 ingaphezu nje kwemoto; ifanekisela umnyakazo ohlangene obheke ekusaseni eliluhlaza, elisimeme, elikhuthaza amanye amazwe ukuthi alandele esimeni kanye nokudlulela ezimotweni ezintsha zamandla.
Njengoba umhlaba uphokophele emhlabeni omusha wamandla aluhlaza, iMalaysia isilungele ukudlala indima enkulu kulolu shintsho, ikhombisa amandla okuqamba izinto ezintsha zasekhaya emkhakheni wezimoto emhlabeni wonke.
