Malaysia firm’s ‘Muslim car’ plan
Making a buck off religion - is a
2-way street.
The Malaysian carmaker Proton has announced plans to develop an “Islamic car“, designed for Muslim motorists.
The car could boast special features like a compass pointing to Mecca and a dedicated space to keep a copy of the Koran and a headscarf.
Safety features or fuel economy is one way of selling a car, but Proton thinks vehicles designed specifically for Muslims across the world represent a huge gap in the market.
Cripes. Ain’t nothing like a religion that stays on your case no matter where you are.
