The 2022 Proton Saga really shines when it comes to fuel efficiency. Under the bonnet, you've got a 1.3-litre VVT naturally aspirated engine, paired with either a 4-speed auto or a 5-speed manual gearbox. Official figures claim 5.6L/100km for the manual and 5.8L/100km for the auto. In real-world driving though, if you keep a steady hand on the wheel, you're looking at a combined city-highway figure somewhere between 6 to 7 litres per hundred kilometres - pretty competitive for an affordable runabout. Plus, the Saga's lightweight body plays its part in keeping those fuel costs down too. It's not just the wallet-friendly price tag that draws people in; that solid fuel economy is a big selling point too, making it perfect for daily commutes and family use. And hey, let's not forget - regular servicing and keeping those tyres properly inflated can make a real difference to how efficiently your Saga runs. Stick to the official maintenance schedule, and you'll keep it performing at its best.
