2016 Proton Saga gets the wagon treatment.

Proton launched the all-new 2016 Proton Saga last month in Malaysia. Now, speculative renderings created by Theophilus Chin preview a 'Proton Saga Aeroback', the estate version of the 2016 Proton Saga. The renderings seem to have been created using the Skoda Rapid Spaceback.

Proton has developed an estate version of the Saga, but reports say that it won't be put into production.

While Proton has created a test mule of an estate version, as revealed in spy shots in June, reports suggest that it's unlikely to make it to the market. Pushing the 5-seat estate off the table, Proton will focus next on the rebadged Suzuki Ertiga that will be an economical 7-seat people mover for the Malaysian market.

The 2016 Proton Saga sedan is powered by the 1.3-litre VVT four-cylinder engine that produces 70 kW (94 hp) at 5,750 rpm and 120 Nm of torque at 4,000 rpm. The only available engine can be linked to a 5-speed manual transmission or a continuously variable transmission. The range consists of three trim levels: Standard, Executive and Premium. The 5-speed manual transmission is available only in the Standard trim level.
