Proton GEN-2

The Proton GEN-2, also written Gen-2 or GEN2, is a compact five-door liftback built by the Malaysian maker Proton and launched in 2004. It was codenamed Wira Replacement Model and takes its name from Generation 2. It uses a platform developed in house by Proton with Lotus, which was later adapted for the Satria Neo and the Persona, and it was the first Proton to use the new CamPro engine, offered at launch as a 1.6 litre producing 110 horsepower. Its styling drew on the Malay wau bulan kite and the handle of the kris dagger. Domestic sales ended in 2012, while production continued for export markets.
