The Cheras–Kajang Expressway (CKE, E7) (Malay: Lebuhraya Cheras–Kajang), more popularly known as the Grand Saga Expressway, is an expressway in Klang Valley that links the incorporated township of Cheras, Kuala Lumpur to the township of Kajang in Selangor, Malaysia.

The Kilometre Zero is counted from the Kuala Lumpur city centre, while the expressway begins at Plaza Phoenix in Cheras, Kuala Lumpur as Kilometre 10.

The expressway is part of a major expansion of Jalan Cheras (Cheras Road), also known as Federal route Jkr-ft1.svg, which consisted of a two-lane intercity road between Kajang and Cheras. Construction of the expressway commenced in late 1998 and, at a cost of RM275 million, was completed and began tolling on January 15, 1999. Having assumed a new name, the "Cheras–Kajang Expressway", and incorporated the mid-length of the original road into the expressway, the expressway consequently bisected Jalan Cheras into two at both ends of the original road: one at Kajang, and the other at Cheras, while remnants of the road's undeveloped routes between remain partially in use.
