Proton Saga; Dedicated Discussion, Owner/ Fan Club Thread

[ahmed.in.med]

There were only 100 cbus available, deliveries were starting in October from what I learnt - that too a handful of units per month initially. So it may very well be next year till you start seeing it commonly on roads. What I can attest is a person using a cultus will be sold on saga if s/he sits inside for just a moment.

I have seen one twice (I believe), in silver color. I saw it on Pine Avenue, the road from Valencia to Ring Road Lahore, once, and in Lake city another time. It looked okay, didn't look bad in my opinion, but we all know looks are subjective. This one was not an ACE variant, not sure if manual or auto.

Proton's next collaboration with Geely could be the replacement of their Preve sedan, which will be based on Geely SS11 (pictured below). It has a 1.5 NA or 1.4 Turbo and its size is roughly equal to Civic/Corolla.

So proton missed out on the strut bar in pakistan

Volvo-esque

[wasiqshahab94]

Yes, Geely owns Volvo and they have deep connections with regards to new vehicle development.

I went to the dealership today. They are saying the first ckds will be delivered in July. And if you book today you will receive your car in November.

Overall quality of the car is pretty impressive for the price. But the cars in the showrooms are cbus. Will want to wait to see a locally produced car before one can book

so it seems, saga suspension setup is superior to all A and B segment pkdm cars.

[taimurahmed92]

If Proton is so good then why hasn't it made any headway in any real markets? Also, in the video I think the prices should be mentioned excluding duties so that one can see how much markup is being applied in which market.

All these new entrants are fake.
Posting a picture to mislead people as usually people do not read caption.

Malaysia main bhi maine corolla/civic he ziada dekhi hai. Question is why cant they outsell Japanese at home ground?

[usman19854]

They do outsell Japanese on home ground, proton and perodua always lead Malaysian sale charts

fuel economy of Saga

11-12 in city

I've filled 4 tanks so far. Overall calculation puts me flat at 11, screen display fluctuates between 12.9 and 10. I drive with heavy foot and ac is on all the time due to kids (sometimes stationery car also with ac on for upto half hour or more). On out of city trip (motorway to Gujranwala) average was 16 as per display.

[roboxx]

That's an impressive one.

11-12 in city14-16 on motorway

calculation puts me flat at 11

seems legit, and acceptable. would improve till 5k inshallah. once the dbw calibrates with your style it will improve considerably

only alsvin's "miracle 'bluecore' the best engine in the world" is the one producing "17-18kmpl" in city as per some reviews
. that car could do 50kmpl and everyone better believe it.
