Proton X70
Al-Haj Automotive has also joined the price cut movement by reducing the prices of Proton Saga and X70.
The company had increased its car prices recently by up to a whopping Rs. 900,000 following the Pakistani Rupee’s poor performance against the US Dollar. With the relaxation in import restrictions and USD rate depreciation, the company has announced a minor decrease in the prices of its cars.
Effective immediately, the new prices of all Proton cars are as follows:
| Model | Old Price (Rs.) | Revised Price (Rs.) | Decrease (Rs.) |
| Saga Standard Manual | 2,824,000 | 2,724,000 | 100,000* |
| Saga Standard Automatic | 2,999,000 | 2,899,000 | 100,000* |
| Saga ACE Automatic | 3,149,000 | 3,049,000 | 100,000* |
| X70 Executive AWD | 6,850,000 | 6,740,000 | 110,000 |
| X70 Premium FWD | 7,300,000 | 7,190,000 | 110,000 |
Note: The new prices of Proton Saga are only applicable for customers who booked their vehicles before June.
Proton Saga has become significantly cheaper than its key competitors, i.e. Suzuki Cultus and Kia Picanto (all three are A-Segment cars). This gives Saga the advantage of being one of the cheapest, yet well-equipped small family cars available in Pakistan.
In its recent social media post, Proton claimed that it has begun deliveries of both — Saga and X70 — across Pakistan. The post added that the delivery time for Saga is now only 2 months.
This is a significant upside for Proton amid the ongoing delivery delay crisis that has plagued the entire industry.
