This second set of Proton Saga facelift photo sent in by reader Bazli are one of the clearest yet, as it was snapped while the car was parked at a highway rest stop yesterday, while our previous shots of the car featured it on the move on a highway near Bukit Jelutong.
The shape of the front end slightly be made out behind the thick disguise. The grille of course gets the same signature Proton family grille that’s found on the Persona, the Exora and even the new Proton Inspira.
From this angle shot we can note a few more changes. I like how the new rear bumper now has integrated reflectors in them, it’ll definitely enhance the look of the bumper. The pre-facelift bumper was bare, although it had a little diffuser-look design at the bottom. You can also notice the new design for the alloy wheels as well as the new design for the tail lamps, which in the Bukit Jelutong photos we observed were powered by LEDs.
No clear photos of the interior so we can’t really see if anything is different but I do hope that the highline model gets dual airbags as standard – it’s already been offered on the 25th Anniversary Edition. Notice the little LED turn signal peeking from the side of the wing mirror.
Look after the jump for a full hi-res gallery of Bazli’s snapshots.
