Engine Displacement: 1,299 cc
The Proton Saga in Pakistan features a 1.3L VVT engine. Interestingly, for the local market, the displacement was slightly adjusted from the international 1,332cc to 1,299cc. This was a strategic move by Proton to bring the car into a lower tax bracket in Pakistan, making it more affordable for the budget-conscious consumer.
Max Power: 91 bhp
The 1,299cc engine generates 91 horsepower at 5,750 RPM. While not a powerhouse, the engine is tuned for reliability and fuel efficiency in dense urban traffic, providing enough pep for city drives and steady highway cruising.
0-100 km/h time: 14.5 Seconds
The Saga is not built for drag racing. It reaches 100 km/h in approximately 14.5 seconds. The focus here is on a smooth, linear acceleration curve that favors fuel economy over raw speed.
