It’s no secret that the end of the year is the best time to snap up car bargains, as manufacturers offer discounts on products that will be one-year old very soon. Proton is in on the act, and in its year-end promo, the national carmaker is offering up to RM8,000 discounts as well as free service packages.
The biggest savings are for the Suprima S; the C-segment five-door hatchback coming with an RM8,000 discount. Smaller sibling Iriz is RM6,000 cheaper, while the Preve sedan comes with RM5,000 off. All three models also come with two years of free service. No discounts for the new Persona, although the Iriz-based sedan does come with the two-year free service package. All for registrations before December 31, 2016
Proton is of course fighting market leader Perodua at the budget end, and P2 is also offering discounts on its entire range – up to RM5,000, Bezza included. Happy shopping!
