Hi, any user reviews on Proton Saga ACE 1.3 AT.
Anyone who has been using this car, please let me know about fuel average, availability of parts and reliability of dealership network in Karachi?

Does proton still exist of Pakistan or they are gone?

I have a budget of around 2.5 to 2.8 million. Earlier I was considering a brand new suzuki alto 2024 MT.

Salam
Go for Alto
1) Great resale
2) wide dealer network
3) Spares easily available
4) great fuel economy
5) easy maintenance

Saga
1) Bad fuel economy (as compared to alto at least)
2) bad resale
3) spares not easily available
4) dealership network small and unreliable
5) NOT RECOMMENDED

I have driven the Saga extensively in Malaysia. It is a robust basic car. Considering that Alhajj group is overseeing Proton I would not recommend it though. FAW had failed rather terribly in their hands and parts will become an issue later on.

In that budget the Alto is the only thing to consider when getting new, if used is an option there should be the Picanto 3-4 years old or even an older Honda City (2014-2015)
