Proton Saga Selepas 35 tahun dalam pasaran, Proton Saga sememangnya dekat di hati rakyat Malaysia.

Proton was one of the few carmakers to emerge from the 80s (coincidentally, Geely was also part of that small batch). The first car to bear the Proton name was the Proton Saga. Based on the Mitsubishi Lancer Fiore, the Saga was a big deal for Malaysia when it first came to fruition in 1985. Thirty five years later, the Saga remains highly relevant. The compact saloon is affordable and perfect for young families. It is a worthy successor to the “Saga” name. Having evolved over 35 years, the Saga

Proton ialah antara beberapa syarikat pengeluar kenderaan yang muncul pada era 80-an. Kereta pertama yang menggunakan nama Proton adalah Proton Saga. Dibangunkan berdasarkan Mitsubishi Lancar Fiore, Saga merupakan antara keunggulan Malaysia sewaktu ia dirasmikan pada tahun 1985. Untuk pengetahuan anda, sedan kompak ini dihasilkan untuk berharga mampu milik dan sesuai untuk keluarga muda. 35 tahun kemudian, ia masih relevan. Sedan ini masih memiliki kekuatan yang ada pada nama “Saga” selama ini.

The Proton Persona might be one of the most exciting-handling cars on a budget. No, I’m serious and this is coming from someone who has very mixed feelings on the Exora. The Persona might be one of those cars that would look great as a sleeper and it even comes with a manual, if you’re the sort who prefers a traditional, engaging drive at the expense of creature comforts. But enough reminiscing over the beauty (and sometimes left leg aching pain) of a manual, most people these days would rather

On top of that, prices were reduced, starting from RM 32,800 (RM 32,400 without SST) for the Standard MT and RM 39,800 (RM 39,300 without SST) for the Premium AT. One of the most significant changes in the facelift exercise is the new 4-speed automatic transmission, replacing the CVT.

The benefits of CVT have been repeated many and many times over – simple design, better fuel efficiency, smooth gear shifts, and infinite gear ratios. So much so, that city cars by Nissan, Honda, and Toyota mainly use CVTs. Common fears regarding CVT are overheating CVTs and snapped CVT belts. But how much truth is there to these fears? 1.

Proton has released another teaser video of the Saga Anniversary Edition, which teases what upgrades this car will feature. As previously covered, there are splashes of yellow trim in and outside the car, on a predominantly black-coloured car. You can watch the teaser video below. Mechanically, there should be no change from the regular Saga, meaning it soldiers on with a 1.3-litre engine (95 PS, 120 Nm), and a 4-speed automatic gearbox.

Back in 1993, the most preferred body-type for a car was a saloon. The Proton Persona debuted, and back then, we knew it as the Proton Wira. The Wira was known as the Persona in UK. Alongside the Wira, the Satria was called the Persona Compact, and the Putra was the Persona Coupe. For 2 generations, the Persona was a C-segment saloon. Things were revamped in 2016, and the Persona name was redesignated to an Iriz-based B-segment sedan. A lot has changed over 27 years, but the Persona remains an a
