Proton Saga costs रु 39,01,000 less ex-showroom.
At NPR 4,999,000, this suits buyers wanting an automatic compact sedan with a five-year/150,000-km warranty. Value is weakened by unclear current Nepal equipment disclosure and the older four-speed automatic.
The flagship experience. Fast, smooth, and tech-loaded. Worth it for those who can afford the premium for performance.
