2026 Proton Saga Quick Specs
One of the biggest changes that comes with the all-new Saga is a completely fresh face. This is mainly in the form of a new front grille featuring the Sulaman Songket motif, which is being flanked by LED projector headlamps that include Daytime Running Lamps (DRL).
The all-new Saga also features a redesigned taillight, which is inclusive of a full LED light bar. In addition to that, the new budget-oriented sedan will ride on the newly designed 15-inch alloy wheels with a dual-tone finish.
Under the hood, the all-new Saga receives a significant upgrade through the new 1.5L i-GT engine. This is the same engine that powers the 2026 Proton X50, but without the turbocharger.
With a maximum power output of 118hp (88kW) alongside 150Nm of torque, the engine is paired with a CVT for the Premium variant, while the Executive and Standard variants received a 4-speed automatic transmission. Proton claimed that the new 1.5L i-GT engine has a fuel consumption of just 4.9L/100km when paired with CVT.
The new sedan has also been fitted with an Electric Power Steering for a more refined driving experience. Proton also said that its signature ride and handling tuning ensures that the all-new Saga can deliver a perfect balance of comfort and control.
After delivering AACP at launch for the 2026 Proton X50 and Proton e.MAS 5, it is now the all-new Proton Saga’s turn to have the feature. That’s correct: the 2026 Saga supports Android Auto and Apple CarPlay (AACP) through either wired or wireless connections.
At the same time, the car also features a 7-inch digital instrument cluster together with a 9-inch infotainment display. Proton has also equipped the all-new Saga with a Level 1 Advanced Driver Assistance System (ADAS).
This system enables 9 key safety features:
- Autonomous Emergency Braking (AEB)
- Forward Collision Warning (FCW)
- Lane Departure Warning (LDW)
- Front Departure Alert (FDA)
- Intelligent High Beam Control (IHBC)
- Rear Collision Warning (RCW)
- Lane Change Assist (LCA)
- Rear Cross Traffic Alert (RCTA)
- Door Opening Warning (DOW)
This ADAS suite is complemented by standard safety features, including 6 airbags and a Proton Reinforced Safety Structure (RESS) built with Hot Press Forming (HPF) components.
