The upcoming Proton Saga MC3 has been noticed but once more, this time present process testing at night time as seen in photographs posted by Syafiq Ismail within the paultan.org Automotive/Automotive Dialogue Group on Fb.
OP’s put up provides us a somewhat good take a look at the Saga’s revised exterior lighting, the place the rear taillights seem like of the LED selection and have slanted dashes. The latter is just like what you’ll discover on the bigger S70, though the Saga’s larger brother has fewer dashes (we rely not less than 5 on the Saga prototype) and so they level inwards somewhat than outwards.
A separate picture of the prototype’s facet additionally exhibits the brand new projector LED headlamps, though this might solely be out there with higher-spec variants. LED headlamps can be a primary for the Sagawhich has been on halogens for a very long time.
As for what else we are able to count on with the Saga MC3, a leaked doc reveals the sedan will get a brand new 1.5 litre inline-four petrol engine (deep dive right here) and a alternative of two transmissions. Three variants are listed within the doc, with the Customary and Government getting an automated transmission, whereas the presumably top-spec Premium will include a CVT.
The present Saga is powered by a 1.3 litre inline-four petrol unit making 95 (94 hp or 70 kW) and 120 Nm of torque, with both a five-speed guide or four-speed automated, though the previous has been on its method out for a while. If the doc is legit, we’re taking a look at substantial modifications to the Saga’s powertrain.
As for design modifications, photographs of an uncamouflaged automobile present a full-width concave grille with an Ethereal Bow cupping the Proton emblem and a thick chrome strip visually connecting the brand new LED headlamps, which function hockey stick-shaped daytime operating lights. The inside will get a brand new dashboard with a textured part forward of the entrance passenger, pill-shaped air vents and twin conjoined screens.
Once more, appreciable revisions, and that’s earlier than contemplating the Saga MC3 will include an ADAS suite. There’s nonetheless no indication when the Saga MC3 shall be launched, however do you want what’s anticipated thus far?
