The 2026 Proton Saga MC3: Which Variant is Right for You, Riders?

Okay geng, the new Proton Saga is here! Launched last week, the MC3 is looking fresh. But with Standard, Executive, and Premium versions, which one should you jilat? Don't worry, kita bedah spec by spec untuk riders yang nak angkat kereta baru tapi bajet smart.

First things first, the damage to your wallet. The Standard starts at RM37,990, the Executive at RM43,990, and the Premium at RM48,990. These prices dah termasuk RM1,000 rebate for early birds until end of the year, okay?

Engine Power: Sama tapi tak serupa

All Saga MC3s come with the same 1.5 litre engine (120 PS, 150 Nm torque). Power is there, tapi transmission lain cerita. Standard and Executive models pakai Aisin four-speed automatic. Premium version pula come back to Punch CVT.

“CVT lebih jimat minyak, delivering a fuel consumption figure of 4.9 litres per 100 km, versus 5.1 litres per 100 km on the others.”

So, kalau kaki minyak, Premium is for you!

Exterior: Apa Beza Luaran?

Depan semua baru, dengan lampu LED projector (even Standard!). Grille besar, with the 'Ethereal Bow' bar. Taillights pun LED. Style is there, cuma details yang beza.

• Standard: Silver Ethereal Bow, 14-inch silver alloys
• Executive: Chrome Ethereal Bow, 15-inch silver alloys, daytime running lights
• Premium: Chrome Ethereal Bow, 15-inch two-tone alloys, full-width LED taillights

Premium ada lampu menyala sambung taillights, and external boot release. Style points!

Interior: Dalaman Mana Lagi Best?

Dashboard baru, with 7-inch digital meter display for all models. Touchscreen? Only Executive and Premium. Standard masih pakai radio/Bluetooth player.

• Standard: Kain biasa, two speakers.
• Executive: Textured fabric, 9-inch touchscreen, four speakers.
• Premium: Faux leather, full seat height adjuster.

Wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto? Only for those with the touchscreen. So, think about your phone sebelum pilih.

Safety: Berapa Banyak Airbag?

Basic safety? Dua airbags and stability control for all. The full experience? Kena pi Premium.

• Standard/Executive: Dua airbags, ABS, EBD, brake assist, traction control, stability control, hill start assist.
• Premium: Six airbags, autonomous emergency braking, lane departure warning, blind spot monitoring, auto high beam.

ADAS best ke tak? Itu ikut cara korang ride, geng.

The Verdict: Mana Satu Nak Angkat?

The Saga MC3's wide variety of options allow you to balance price, features, and performance. The Standard offers a great starting point, while the Executive adds convenience, and the Premium focuses on technology and advanced safety.

Harap ni membantu korang buat keputusan! Ride safe and remember, kereta bukan untuk lajak je okay?
