For The Savvy is one of the cheapest new cars around. It rides and handles reasonably well, and has a unique look

Against The 1.2-litre engine is rough and unwilling, space is limited, the interior looks dated and cheap. Plus, there's no steering wheel adjustment

1 out of 5 stars

One of the cheapest city cars around and not too bad to drive, but desperately short on refinement and interior quality

Proton Savvy Hatchback 1.2 Style 5dr

Ultimately, there is no choice: if you want a Savvy, this is the only model. However, before you buy, be aware that there are plenty of better alternatives.

Buyer's notes

Target Price team says:

Like the Satria Neo, as a piece of engineering, the Savvy can't really cut it against its direct supermini rivals. If you're tempted by one, only sign on the dotted line after you have thoroughly tested the car's rivals.

Ultimately, this is a purchase you justify solely on value for money, something Proton are renowned for. However, it doesn’t stop at the list price. There's a prominent section on the company's website detailing the latest special offers, and these have included things like free leather upholstery and discounts of as much as £2500 on certain models.

To save you the bother of constantly logging on, you can also supply your email address via the website, which will allow the company to keep you up-to-date with all the latest offers
