Proton launched two new models at the Felda Settlers Day in Johor - the Proton Saga SE and the Proton Exora 1.6 manual.

From the info I am getting now, the Saga SE uses a 1.3 litre Campro IAFM engine as before (the sole 1.6 litre model continues in taxi spec), but comes with aeshetic and equipment changes, while the Proton Exora 1.6 M/T like its namesake comes with a manual transmission. The Proton team is having trouble sending full specs and press release over because they are in an area without internet access now but at least we have the prices.

Prices of Saga and Exora:

Proton Saga SE Manual RM43,000
Proton Saga SE Auto RM45,500
Proton Exora M/T Solid RM64,548.00
Proton Exora M/T Metallic RM64,998.00
