Eh, you got that one old car just sitting at home, collecting dust and saman? What if I told you that old ride could be your golden ticket to a brand new Proton Saga?
No, I'm not kidding you! Thanks to the latest Budget 2026, the government has announced something awesome called the Vehicle Scrapping Incentive (VSI). It's a special grant designed to help you trade in your old car (more than 20 years old) for a new, safer national car like a Proton.
And the best part? You can get up to RM8,000 off your new car! Fuyoh, that's a lot of savings!
So, How Does This RM8,000 Grant Work?
It's actually very simple. The deal is a "matching grant," which means the government will match whatever value Proton offers for your old car.
Here's the breakdown:
| Your Part | Amount |
|---|---|
| Proton Trade-in Value (for your 20+ year old car) | Up to RM4,000 |
| Government Matching Grant (they give you the same amount!) | Up to RM4,000 |
| Total Value / Discount for You! | Up to RM8,000 |
So, if our dealership values your old car at RM2,000, the government will chip in another RM2,000. Just like that, you get a total of RM4,000 to buy your new Proton! However in the event we are unable to offer anything for your vehicle, we can still guide you to claim an RM2,000 grant from JPJ when you purchase a new vehicle with us.

Why This is the Perfect Time to Get a Proton Saga
We all know the Proton Saga is one of Malaysia's most loved cars. It's reliable, spacious, and super affordable. With this RM8,000 grant, it's a deal you cannot miss.
Imagine this: a brand new Proton Saga starts at around RM34,800. After you minus the RM8,000 grant (or RM2,000 if your car is considered scrap), the price drops to as little as RM26,800! That's a massive discount.
Plus, you can combine this with Proton's special "Step Up Financing" plan, where you can own a new Saga from as low as RM199 per month. You can use the grant to cover your down payment, making your monthly payments even lower. Suddenly, owning a new car is easier than ever.
