Proton Moves into OEM Converted Market

Proton has expanded its GEN-2 range with the addition of two lpg dual fuel models. The new ecoLogic GEN-2 is the same price as its petrol equivalent, with no extra cost for the factory fitted lpg conversion.

Conversion to the lpg system is done by Proton technicians at its new Avonmouth import centre near Bristol. The lpg ecologic versions of Proton’s mid-sized saloon and five-door hatchback will be joined later by Satria and Savvy models.

The Proton ecoLogic GEN-2 has a 1.6 litre engine and is available in hatchback or saloon versions. Reverse distance sensors, air conditioning with pollen filter, electric front and rear windows, automatic central locking and alloy wheels come as standard. Both models are available with a leather interior option, and for a limited time customers can choose a black leather interior on the GEN-2 ecoLogic hatchback for free.

Simon Park, general manager for sales and marketing at Proton, said: “The price of petrol is becoming quite a problem for some motorists and various companies offer lpg conversions, but there are hardly any manufacturer converted lpg models, so we are moving into this market.”
