Proton has taken to LinkedIn to post a story about this 1985 Saga, which is the latest addition to the display area of its Centre of Excellence (COE) in Subang Jaya. This year marks the 39th anniversary of the carmaker’s first production car, and this particular example was donated to Proton by the family of the late Ariffin Hew.
Ariffin, a passionate car enthusiast, was among the first to purchase the Saga when it launched back in July 1985. In the time he owned it, he remained committed to maintaining the car in its original condition, including the original blue paint job and well-preserved interior.
Recognising the significance of the car as a piece of automotive history, his family decided to donate the car to ensure its legacy would be appreciated by future generations. The car was handed over by Rosni Rahmat, wife of the late Ariffin Hew, accompanied by her son in law, Imran Abdullah.
“We are deeply honoured by Ariffin Hew’s generous donation. The 1985 Proton Saga is a significant part of our history, and its display at our HQ will provide a unique opportunity for visitors to connect with our legacy. This exhibition celebrates not just the car, but the spirit of innovation and progress that Proton has gone through,” said Roslan Abdullah, deputy CEO of Proton.
If you’re interested in checking out this rolling time capsule, it will be displayed at Proton COE for one month as part of a special exhibition that also explores the origins of the Saga ..

With Proton’s new eMas electric vehicle brand slowly but surely building up to its 2025 launch, its custodian Pro-Net is looking for more dealers to join its network. The national carmaker’s new energy vehicle (NEV) subsidiary has recently expanded its list of showrooms by one, bringing the total number to 18.
Those 1S, 2S and 3S outlets, operated by 16 dealers, include four in Selangor, three in Kuala Lumpur and Perak, two in Pulau Pinang and Johor and one each in Kedah, Kelantan, Pahang and in East Malaysia in Sabah. Pro-Net says this expansion “underscores our commitment to providing accessible and comprehensive support to our customers,” with the goal of developing “community spaces” with “seamless digital platforms” and EV chargers.
Pro-Net is targeting to grow the number of outlets to 30 by 2025, and to that end, it is calling for more dealers to join the network. The company is specifically looking to build its presence in the central region (Kuala Lumpur and Selangor) as well as Alor Setar in Kedah, Kuala Terengganu, Seremban in Negeri Sembilan, Melaka, Johor Bahru, Batu Pahat and Muar in Johor, Kuching, Sibu, Bintulu and Miri in Sarawak, and Sandakan and Tawau in Sabah.

Sales of the Proton S70 may have only kicked off this year, but the new sedan has already been a runaway success, with sales surpassing 10,000 units. Pushing the car past the milestone were June sales of 1,440 units, just behind the revised 2024 X50 (1,711 units).
In fact, with a total of 10,914 units sold in the past six months, the S70 has handily outperformed the X50 (10,204 units) this year. Proton continues to claim that the car has led the C-segment sedan standings every month, even though, in reality, the car straddles both the B- and C-segments.
Even with sales at their lowest since January (1,442 units), the S70 was still the company’s second best-selling sedan after the Saga, sales of which hit 5,441 units for a six-month total of 34,838 units. A solid month for the Persona (1,309 units sold, 9,753 units total) capped off a strong showing for Proton’s four-doors.
Overall, the national carmaker sold 12.2% fewer cars in June compared to the previous month at 10,999 units, affected by an expected low total industry volume (TIV) and a planned one-week plant shutdown to implement operational improvements.
Launched in late November, the S70 is available in four variants – the Executive at RM73,800, the Premium at RM79,800, the Flagship at RM89,800 and the range-topping Flagship X at RM94,800. All are powered by a 1.5 litre turbocharged MPI three-cylinder engine that puts out 150 PS and 226 Nm of torque, sent to the front wheels via a seven-speed wet dual-clutch tran..
