Summary
| Description |
Overall safety standards in the third generation Saga aren't up to par with the Persona or Iriz. This is to be expected, because the new Saga is still based on an 11-year old platform. Plus, the Saga is Proton's entry level product, it's the cheapest sedan on sale in Malaysia. The truth is, the main buying demographic for the Saga (and its rival, the Perodua Bezza) simply do not have safety as a top priority. Many are first time car owners, some are upgrading from a motorcycle or old beater. To them, any new car will be much safer than what they're accustomed to... but it will also have to be cheap enough for them to be able to afford it. And herein lies the dilemma for Proton... should they include anti-lock brakes (ABS) and electronic stability control (ESC) on all new Sagas and be forced to raise prices ? Or should they omit these features and gain a price advantage over the Bezza ? Proton has gone with the 'middle ground' here... they've left out ABS on the base model, and they've fitted ESC on the top-spec Saga. Most car companies and distributors in Malaysia follow this 'levelled' policy. On another note, Proton has also strengthened the body structure by 20%, and they're offering twin airbags on all new Sagas. |
