The 2022 Proton Saga hit Malaysian showrooms with three trim levels: the 1.3L Standard MT (base manual), 1.3L Standard AT (base automatic), and 1.3L Premium AT (range-topping automatic). All variants are powered by a 1.3-litre four-cylinder VVT naturally aspirated engine, pushing out 95PS and 120Nm of torque. Step up to the Premium AT, and you’ll get nice upgrades like LED daytime running lights, leather seats, and a 7-inch touchscreen head unit with Bluetooth and smartphone mirroring. True to form, the 2022 Saga stays true to its "practical and affordable" roots. Proton’s also kept its pricing super competitive in the segment, and fuel efficiency has been tweaked to 5.6L/100km for the manual and 6.0L/100km for the auto. As Proton’s best-selling "national car," the Saga’s winning combo of a reliable powertrain and wallet-friendly maintenance costs keeps it a top pick for first-time buyers-especially city-dwelling families who prioritize utility and fuel savings.
