The Proton Waja

The Proton Waja is a malaysian car, the first built by Proton without outside help, except for the engines, which were taken from Mitsubishi. Later Proton Waja got its own malaysian engine, a 1.3L.
The Proton Waja 1.6 has 102HP and a maximum speed of 190km/h with the 5 speed manual or 185km/h with the 4 speed automatic.
Proton begun working on the Waja model at the end of the 1990's and the car was launched in the year 2000. The quality lacked a bit at first, but it improved in time, especially in the interior. For a brief period of time the Proton Waja even had a european engine, the one used for the Renault Laguna. It only lasted one year though, due to the lack of spare parts for european engines in Malaysia.
