The short answer

Proton Saga costs रु 2,30,000 less ex-showroom. Saga has 9.4 PS more power.

Choose the Proton Saga if
Proton Saga costs रु 2,30,000 less ex-showroom.Saga has 9.4 PS more power.

At NPR 4,999,000, this suits buyers wanting an automatic compact sedan with a five-year/150,000-km warranty. Value is weakened by unclear current Nepal equipment disclosure and the older four-speed automatic.

Pros
Automatic convenience in urban traffic
Strong published power figure for its class
420-litre boot and five seats
Five-year/150,000-km whole-vehicle warranty
Cons
Outdated four-speed automatic
Current airbag and ADAS specification is unclear
Limited publicly documented Nepal service and charging infrastructure
Higher price than the manual variant
As of 25 Sept 2026
Choose the Suzuki Swift if
You prefer its body style, brand or dealer near you — the numbers are close.

This is the most expensive dual-tone automatic Swift in Nepal. It only makes sense if you want the full style-and-automatic package and are unconcerned about value efficiency.

Pros
Automatic plus dual-tone styling.
Top-end appearance.
Current Nepal-market Swift trim from the official distributor.
Cons
Priciest Swift listed.
Value is mostly style and convenience.
Official Nepal page is sparse on equipment detail.

Our verdict

These two split the decision: the Proton Saga is रु 2,30,000 cheaper ex-showroom (4.6%), while the Suzuki Swift is ahead on dealer and service reach — so the answer depends on which of those you are buying for.

Choose the Proton Saga if
  • the ex-showroom price is your binding constraint
  • you want the stronger powertrain for hill climbs and overtaking

Measured: 9.4 PS more power.

Choose the Suzuki Swift if
  • you want servicing within reach of where you live
  • you want a dealer close enough to visit and negotiate at

Measured: 28 more service centres in Nepal (45 vs 17); 7 more showrooms in Nepal (70 vs 63).

Every figure in this verdict is computed from the table below — the same ex-showroom prices, variant specifications and Nepal service network the page publishes. Nothing here is an estimate, and where a figure is missing on one side the axis is left out rather than guessed.
