    The Proton Waja was launched in 8 May 2000, together with the introduction of Proton's

    new corporate logo. Early batches of the Waja had no airbags, ABS, and came with
    fabric seats only.[10]

    On Saturday, 6 October 2001, the Proton Waja 1.6X was launched. It was only available
    with an automatic transmission and was equipped with more luxurious items like a semi
    automatic Proton Air air conditioning system, ABS with Brake Assist (BA) and Electronic
    Brake Force Distribution (EBD), auto flip mirror, a semi wood steering wheel, wood grain
    interior, full leather seats and door trim. The audio system was upgraded to a Clarion
    PX1676AA, with a built in CD player and six disc CD changer.

    Proton made minor changes to the seats by adding rear armrest with cup holder (which
    the standard Waja lacked), rear seats adjustable head rest and lumbar support for driver
    seats. Safety features were also added such as a driver's airbag and ABS. [11][12]

    In 2002, Proton launched the Proton Waja 1.8X. It was powered by the Renault F4P
    engine, which was also found in the Renault Laguna. Its equipment was mostly shared
    with the Proton Waja 1.6X. However changes included a passenger airbag and larger
    front discs brakes.[13]

    In conjunction with the 20th anniversary since the launch of the Proton Saga in 1985, a
    limited edition Waja called the Proton Waja 20th Anniversary was launched sometime
    in 2005. Also known as P20Y or Proton's 20 year, this limited edition was powered by the
    Mitsubishi 4G18 engine and featured leather seats with 20th anniversary logo embossed.
    The front grill got a U-shaped chrome surround and wheels identical to that later used
    with CPS powered Waja's.[14]

    At the end of 2005, Proton additionally introduced another variant of the Waja, known
    as Proton Chancellor.[2] It was used by representatives of the Association of Southeast
    Asian Nations (ASEAN) during the meeting of ASEAN leaders in the KLCC, shortly
    before its launch in 2006.[15] The Chancellor had a longer wheelbase and a 2.0
    litre Mitsubishi 6A12 V6 engine, similar to that used in Proton Perdana V6. The car was
    only available with a four speed automatic transmission. [16]

    In January 2006, the Proton Waja was updated. The major change was the Campro
    S4PH engine. Other changes included leather seats, a beige and brown interior color, a
    new meter cluster, redesigned air-condition vents and a new double-DIN CD player with
    MP3 support. These models also have a new rims which it has been stop using on the
    facelift version and used back in the CPS models. Models with Campro engine were
    more expensive though sold alongside the Mitsubishi 4G18 equipped Waja initially. [17][18]

    In June 2006, the Proton Waja exterior was updated with a new honeycomb lower grille,
    new headlamps, new rear taillights nicknamed thermometer taillights, the Waja lettering
    moving to above the number plate and new alloy wheels. [19]

    Proton's motorsports division, Race Rally Research (R3) launched the commemorative
    special edition duo of the Proton Waja MME Edition and Proton GEN.2 MME Edition in
    August 2006. They were built to celebrate Protons R3 Amprex team emerging victorious
    as Overall champions and Class O champions completing 279 laps in a specially-built
    Lotus Exige 300RR. Only 200 units of each car available, and each car will have a serial
    number and name plate due to its limited edition run. MME stood for Merdeka Millenium
    Endurance edition.[20][21]
