Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between Saga Standard and Executive?
Executive adds a CVT gearbox (Standard uses a 4-speed automatic), six airbags (Standard has two front airbags only), a reverse camera, rear parking sensors, wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, auto headlamps with follow-me-home, electric auto-fold mirrors, side skirtings and larger 185/55 R15 dual-tone alloy wheels — Standard rides on 175/65 R14 alloys with a 9-inch capacitive button screen and two speakers.
What is the difference between Saga Executive and Premium?
Premium adds the full ADAS suite (AEB, FCW, FDA, LDW, IHBC, LCA, RCW, RCTA and DOW), front parking sensors, dual-tone leatherette seats, a leatherette steering wheel and a lever-type seat adjuster. Executive keeps textured fabric seats, urethane steering and knob-type seat adjustment.
Is Saga Premium worth the additional price over Executive?
Premium is worth it if you want crash-avoidance ADAS, front parking sensors and a more premium interior. Executive already covers six airbags, a reverse camera, rear sensors, CVT and wireless smartphone connectivity — so skip Premium if ADAS isn't a priority.

Executive and Premium both have 6 SRS airbags (front, side and curtain). Standard has 2 front airbags only.
Which Saga variant has a reverse camera?
Executive and Premium have a reverse camera. Standard does not.

No — wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto are available on Executive and Premium only. Standard has a 9-inch capacitive button touchscreen with Bluetooth but no wireless smartphone mirroring.
What features are standard across all Saga variants?
All three Saga variants share the same i-GT 1.5 engine (120PS/150Nm), intelligent entry with push-start, 7-inch TFT instrument cluster, ECO Drive Assist, ABS/EBD/BA, ESC, TCS, Hill Hold Assist, immobiliser and anti-theft alarm, the same body dimensions (4,390/1,690/1,525mm), 2,465mm wheelbase, 40L fuel tank and 5.2m turning radius.
