SMALL YET STURDY

We wanted to build a small city car that was big on features. With a unique design that was unlike any other Proton car, the Proton Savvy was also created with strength and savings in mind, topped off with exceptional ride and handling from Lotus.

 
 
 
 

What others say / Motor Trader

"Besides the new rear end looks, there's also a standard roof spoiler now and at the front, a new less fussy grille is evident wit the 'beak' also removed."


What others say / Paul Tan

"Thai business daily The Nation has picked the Proton Savvy as one of Thailand's top 10 cars in 2008 as it has a cheap price, good acceleration, and almost go-kart-like handling."


What others say / Asian Auto

"At the launch, many were surprised when the Savvy was said to be a rival for the older Perodua Kelisa, and not the more obvious and similarly priced Myvi, which was launched only weeks before."
