The 2005-2011 Proton Savvy AMT pairs the same 1.1-litre 55kW/105Nm engine as the manual with a 5-speed automated manual transmission (AMT), specified here from Proton Cars Australia's own brochure. It shares the manual's 159km/h top speed, 5.7L/100km combined fuel and 134g/km CO2, but Proton's brochure lists a slightly slower 15.0-second 0-100km/h and a 10kg-heavier 975kg kerb weight against a 1275kg GVM. Standard equipment is identical to the manual: alloy wheels, ABS with EBD, front fog lights, reverse sensors and a multi-function trip computer.
