Proton’s bestselling car will be given a slight nip and tuck this year. It’s the second time we’re seeing the 2022 Proton Saga out on public roads, and this appears to be the exact same unit spotted at the end of last November.
So far, we know that the A-segment sedan will be getting the new rounded Proton logo up front, along with a black front lip and black side mirrors. This fresh set of images actually give us a better look at the design of wheels, which appear to look a lot like the old 15-inch turbine-style units fitted on the 2016 Persona.
That doesn’t mean the Saga will be recycling old wheels, though, because carmakers are known to dip into their parts bin when testing pre-production vehicles. We’re fans of the current twin-five spoke design, but only time will tell for sure. Just for reference, the Iriz R3 uses the old 16-inch wheels from the Satria Neo CPS.
Beyond that, no mechanical changes are expected to be made, so the Saga will continue to be powered by the 1.3 litre four-cylinder engine that makes 95 PS at 5,750 rpm and 120 Nm of torque at 4,000 rpm. The Saga is currently still available with a five-speed manual transmission, though it remains to be seen if this will continue to be offered.
As per the 2019 update, the Punch CVT gets replaced with a four-speed torque converter automatic gearbox sourced from Hyundai, which is the same unit used in the Kia Picanto. Exterior colour options may remain unchanged, so the current Snow White, Armoured Silver, Jet Grey, Rosewood Maroon and Ruby Red may continue to be offered. So, what do you think?

What a waste of budget to facelift a Game Over car. Better to buy Game-Changing Perodua Axia than this outdated obsolete car. Proton should have already replace it with a modern Geely model
Game Changing?, Bruh can I have what you’re smoking right now? 3 cylinder shaking engine when idling?, Handle like a boat?, Too much body roll when cornering and ride comfort is bad AND it’s a hatchback while being more expensive than top spec saga which is a sedan bruh stop being a Perodua fanboy
proton fanboy hahaha… 2X5 sj kamu hahahaha..
So what is new in it to be launched?
Tak payah pikir, tak payah pening.. Belilah satu utk saya, ya? Terima kasih :)
Started working this year, hoping to purchase my first car. Hopefully this is a Lotus handling tweaked Proton Saga or an actual sporty derivative of the Proton Saga. Finger’s crossed it’s not just a facelift
P1..stop injecting botox….we ,the hardcore P1 fanboys demand something ” fresh from the oven”.
Dr.Li,stop the rot..dont just bring X70 and X50.Bring fresh sedans.There is still a demand.
Not everyone wants a suv.
With old design, production cost becomes less & less and so price will become cheaper. Estimate in another few years, this Saga price will drop until match Axia E price. That time, Saga will outsell all P2 models.
By that time, P2 already come out with newer models.
The best keeps getting better. Kipidap!
Still ugly in the car fashion world, but at the asking price – totally acceptable.
Really? Have you seen Bezza lately?
The previous gen Almera was slightly worse.
Proton Oh Proton… how many times do you want FL the old dinosaur? bring up a fresh model at an affordable price.
As long as Toyota continue refreshing 2003 Vios, newer Saga refresh ok what.
What has been changed? Really from the look itself, it is almost identical. Proton….if you do not reply on rebadged from Geely, you are still the Proton previously. Pls hire new batch of designers.
got diff ke
price. if not because of price, nobody cares about this saga.
Come with body-kit also need to be tested?
Malaysia boleh maaaa…
I think this model come with new feature like auto cruise control or automatic emergency braking system
I’m just imagine if this saga is fitted with new engine 1.4,automatic torque converter, value for money. Or another thing is imagine design for saga is Proton persona.
Jgn facelift bang…
Use the money to build in house service center to provide better service…..
