Fellow Autopuzzlers, for a point please identify this car.
Don't be naughty! Stay away from Google Search by Image, kids.
Up to the Experts.
Haima M3?
That's a good guess but it's not a Haima, nor is it connected to it in any way.
but Chinese?
No, it's not Chinese either. It would be possible to draw somewhat intricate, distant connections to a couple of Chinese companies.
Proton?
It's not a Proton, but you are on the right track!
From Iran?
Not Iran.
from Malaysia?
Not from Malaysia.

Kacts Aselaah from Saudi Arabia
KACST Aseelah according to the badging and the placeholder in the license plate area.
Well done thorax, you win the point! Thanks sixtee5cuda for the correction of the misspelling. KACST is the King Abdulaziz City for Science and Technology located in Riyadh. The Aseelah, based on the Proton Persona, was presented in 2010, and it was announced that a production line would be set up in Arabia to build it, but the project since to have disappeared from the radar.
Proton gives me the right clue
Yes, the Proton base was an important step towards finding the car, but I decided not to lock the puzzle for finding that (sorry Chance) because it was the easy part, the purpose of the puzzle was to dig a little deeper.
