Proton decided to give Media Prima’s TV3 a scoop on the new Proton Waja replacement “P390A” model based on the current generation Mitsubishi Lancer. A TV3 program earlier this week had shots of a covered Proton-badged Lancer with a red paintjob.
The cover was lifted up a little momentarily at different sections of the car to give us a glimpse of the styling changes that Proton has done – the entire front end looks different and I must say quite similiar to the rendering that Theophilus did (shown in line). TV3 also reveals that a manual transmission will be available.

AI-generated Summary ✨
Comments highlight the impressive resemblance of the Proton Waja Lancer to Mitsubishi's design, with many expecting the price to be competitive below RM75k. Enthusiasts anticipate improved handling from Lotus tuning and hope for a reliable engine, possibly a 1.8 or 2.0L. Critics express disappointment over the rebadging strategy, feeling it undermines Proton's originality and harmful to existing Lancer owners. Overall, the shift is seen as a strategic move to save costs and quickly enter or maintain market presence.
