compact crossover Mitsubishi ASX for European market was shown back in 2010 in Geneva. Since then, the ASX has gone through a couple of minor facelifts. But in general, the recognizable profile of Lancer X, on the platform of which the car was made, was left without significant changes. While the older brother “Outlander” completely changed his appearance.
For the Russian market, the Mitsubishi ASX crossover is assembled in Japan. Exactly Japanese assembly provides great quality and vehicle reliability. Concerning technical features, then in our country the car is presented with three gasoline engines with a working volume of 1.6, 1.8 and 2 liters. There is also a diesel option, but it can only be bought in the EU.
Concerning off-road qualities Mitsubishi ASX, then buyers should be pleased with the ground clearance, which is almost 20 centimeters, or more precisely, ground clearance ASX 195 mm. There are both front-wheel drive and all-wheel drive versions of the car. However, the crossover receives all-wheel drive only in combination with a top-end 2-liter engine.
Mitsubishi ASX exterior quite similar to the Lancer X sedan, especially in the front. Designers borrowed quite a lot of saloon features. The main thing that immediately catches your eye is a large grille in the form of a trapezoid. By the way, as a result of the latest restyling, LED daytime running lights were added to the front foglights (built into the bumper). See photos of the ASX crossover below.

Specifications Mitsubishi ASX
Specifications crossover ASX directly depend on the type of power unit. So a car with a 1.6-liter gasoline engine is offered only with front-wheel drive and a 5-speed manual gearbox. With a 1.8 liter engine, ASX is already sold with a continuously variable CVT variator, but still only front-wheel drive. And only with the most powerful 2-liter gasoline engine, customers are offered an all-wheel drive transmission, but all with the same CVT variator.
So, base engine Mitsubishi ASX 1.6 liter, this is a gasoline in-line, 4-cylinder, 16-valve unit with an electronic valve timing control system. Motor power 117 hp at 154 Nm of torque. Acceleration to the first hundred with this engine is 11.4 seconds, and maximum speed 183 km/h Average fuel consumption is 6.1 liters. I would like to note right away that all Mitsubishi ASX engines have a chain in the timing drive. The type of injection is distributed.
The next most powerful 1.8-liter engine produces 140 horses with a maximum torque of 177 Nm. Acceleration combined with continuously variable transmission to 100 km / h in 12.7 seconds, and a maximum speed of 189 km. Interestingly, the more powerful engine of the ASX crossover did not add dynamism to the crossover, but fuel consumption increased. So in mixed mode, it is 7.4 liters. By the way, 1.6 and 1.8 engines consume only AI-95 gasoline, but the 2-liter “eats” AI-92.
Top 2 liter Gas engine, with which only all-wheel drive transmission compact crossover Mitsubishi issues 150 Horse power and 197 Nm of torque. Acceleration to the first hundred is 11.7 seconds, and the maximum speed is 191 km / h. Naturally, this engine is also the most voracious, so the consumption in mixed mode is 7.7 liters. Interestingly, the manufacturer indicates consumption in urban conditions at 9.4 liters, the same figure for the ASX with a 1.8-liter engine.
Four-wheel drive Mitsubishi ASX works as follows. In mode 2WD only the front wheels are driving. In mode 4WD auto, it is still a front-wheel drive car, but if necessary, they are connected rear wheels without the participation of the driver. That is, when the front wheels slip, the differential locks automatically and the torque is transmitted to the rear wheels.
Force Lock Mode 4WD Lock blocks the differential constantly and the car turns into an SUV and is ready to conquer various terrain in 4x4 mode. It should be borne in mind that fuel consumption in this mode is increased, plus acceleration dynamics also suffer.

Video review of Mitsubishi ASX, look.
By the way, in the US Mitsubishi ASX is sold under the name Outlander Sport. In the North American market, this car is the best selling among all Mitsubishi models at the moment.

Mitsubishi ASX 2018 review: model appearance, interior, specifications, security systems, prices and equipment. At the end of the article - a video review of the 2018 Mitsubishi ASX!
Review content:
In April 2017, specialists from Mitsubishi Motors during the annual New York Auto Show demonstrated an updated version of the Mitsubishi Outlander Sport compact crossover, better known in Russia under the name Mitsubishi ASX. The novelty received a corrected appearance, as well as a number of significant improvements in the cabin, while technical filling The crossover remained unchanged, due to the total savings of the new owners (Nissan Motors), who are currently reorganizing their new division.
The good news was that, having been updated, the 2018 Mitsubishi ASX returned to the Russian market again, but it is not yet known how the car will be accepted by domestic buyers who have had time to take a closer look and try out Korean and European counterparts.
Exterior and dimensions of Mitsubishi ASX 2018
Note that the restyling carried out benefited the Mitsubishi ASX 2018 - the crossover began to look not only more mature and stylish, but also more assertive. The "muzzle" of the car has retained the original "X-shaped" style, while the pattern of the false radiator grille has changed, and new vertical LED strips have appeared. running lights and fully LED predatory head optics.
The profile of the car did not change and still pleases with the presence of muscular wheel arches, elegant side door embossing and stylish alloy wheel design.
The frying crossover feed received a new bumper, complemented by a stylish pseudo-diffuser, a spectacular chrome lining on the tailgate and new C-shaped foglights. On the roof of the crossover, as before, it is possible to install roof rails that increase the loading capacity of the car.
External dimensions have not changed:
- Length- 4.295 m;
- Width- 1.77 m;
- Height- 1.625 m.
Note that another one has been added to the previously existing body color options - Alloy Silver, so now potential buyers can choose one of six possible colors.
The internal content of the new ASX 2018
The interior of the restyled Mitsubishi ASX received a minimum number of changes, but they turned out to be enough to make the interior of the car look stylish and modern again. First of all, the changes affected the finishing materials, which, as the manufacturer notes, have become at least a cut above. In addition, a new multimedia center now lives on the central panel, which received a 7-inch touchscreen monitor and support for Android Auto and Apple CarPlay.
The design of the central tunnel has also undergone changes, where a more modern gearbox selector and cupholders slightly offset towards the driver are located. As before, the driver's seat is represented by a three-spoke multifunction steering wheel and a strict instrument panel, and three functional knobs, familiar from their predecessor, are responsible for controlling the climate system.
The front seats can have both fabric and leather upholstery, but regardless of the finishing materials, they have a good side profile and a sufficient number of adjustments. Between the seats of the first row there is a large and comfortable armrest, inside of which there is a niche for various small things.
The rear sofa is profiled for two riders, but in practice it can accommodate three passengers, however, in this case, one cannot count on a high level of comfort.
As our Mitsubishi ASX 2018 review showed, the trunk volume of a crossover can vary between 384 and 1219 liters, depending on the location of the rear sofa backs. If rear backrests lowered, the user can rely on a practically level loading area. In the underground of the trunk, the manufacturer placed a dokatka and a small repair kit.
Mitsubishi ASX 2018 - specifications
In the domestic car market, the new Mitsubishi ASX 2018 is offered with two power units using an innovative electronic system gas distribution phase control MIVEC:
- A 1.6-liter engine that generates 117 "mares" and 154 Nm of torque, which is reached at 4000 rpm.

This unit provides a one and a half ton car with acceleration to hundreds in 11.7 seconds, and also allows you to accelerate to a maximum of 191 km / h. The presence of a more powerful engine has affected fuel consumption, which in combined mode is about 7.8 l / 100 km.
Mitsubishi ASX is based on the branded GS trolley, which involves the use of MacPherson struts on the front and multi-links on rear axle. A simpler and more comfortable control is ensured by the presence of an electric booster, and disc “pancakes” of all wheels (frontal with ventilation) and a wide range of modern electronic assistants are responsible for slowing down.

Conclusion
While the upgrades to the restyled Mitsubishi ASX are mostly cosmetic, the car looks like a very interesting investment, as it offers a wide range of equipment at a moderate cost. Those who like the model, but want an updated design and new stuffing, it is worth waiting for the next generation of ASX, which should debut before 2020.
The fashion for parquet SUVs without a frame structure has been actively developing since 2007-2008, and soon there was a demand for such cars from people who do not leave the city. But in urban areas large machines not held in high esteem, and manufacturers have offered compact and sub-compact crossovers specifically for residents of megacities.
Just to fill this niche Mitsubishi released the ASX crossover. The first concept model appeared in 2007 under the name Concept-cX. Already at that time, the model looked like a production model, but the financial and economic crisis slightly changed plans, and the production model itself debuted only in 2010 in Geneva under the name ASX. The Japanese, of course, are masters of splurge and invent big names, and the ASX abbreviation stands for Active Sport X-over - an SUV for active driving, but it’s still worth saying that Mitsubishi asx technical the characteristics really do not allow the already few competitors to compare with it.
Geometric indicators of the car
As a true city dweller ASX has a very compact size:
- length 4295 mm
- width 1770 mm
- height 1625 mm
- ground clearance 195 mm
- wheelbase - 2670 mm
- luggage compartment volume is an impressive 415 liters
- tank volume - 63 l
- unloaded weight - 1300 kg,
- gross weight - 1870 kg.
After a cosmetic update that took place in 2013, the main dimensions have not changed. The luggage compartment has become slightly smaller - 384 liters (1219 liters with the rear seats folded down) and the volume of the fuel tank has been reduced to 60 liters. In addition, the front and rear bumper, more chrome appeared, and the geometry of the grille changed.
Changes in technical terms: shock absorbers were reconfigured, bushings-silent blocks were replaced and levers with increased rigidity were introduced. The handbrake mechanism is now integrated into stopping support one of the rear wheels. Suspension changes were made due to customer feedback. Mitsubishi puts a big stake on our market, and therefore, before updating the model, brand engineers came to Russia to communicate with the owners and the focus group.
In the interior of the car, the shape of the transmission mode selection washer has changed, the navigation system has been upgraded - now it supports SD memory cards.
Despite its compactness, the ASX is built on a mature platform that has been tested and put on Lancer of the last generation and the now discontinued Outlander XL.
Engines and gearboxes
The model, both before and after the update, was supplied to the Russian market with three gasoline units:
- 1.6 liters, 117 hp and a torque of 154 Nm at 4 thousand rpm. This engine can be described as calm, taking into account the mass of the car, it does not go fast - up to 100 km / h the speedometer needle will rise in 11.4 seconds. But the motor is quite economical and consumes about 8 liters in city mode and 6.1 liters in highway mode. This engine was developed jointly with the Daimler concern and was installed on the Mitsubishi Colt back in 2004. Paired with this power unit, a five-speed manual gearbox was installed.
- 1.8 liters with 140 hp (143 hp for Europe). The torque was 177 Nm at 4250 rpm. This unit was developed jointly with Hyundai and Crysler, and although it was more powerful than the base engine, it could not boast of the same dynamics. Acceleration to 100 km / h is a long 13.1 seconds, and 9.8 liters per 100 km in the city (6.4 liters on the highway). The possibilities of the motor are curtailed due to the non-alternative CVT transmission. Undoubtedly, such a transmission has its advantages - amazing smoothness, but you have to pay for it with mediocre dynamics with a fairly powerful engine. Another advantage of the variator is its reliability, provided regular replacement oils.
- 2.0 liters - the most powerful motor for ASX in our market, issuing 150 hp. and 197 Nm of torque. The names of this version have all-wheel drive, combined with the same CVT. The car accelerates to “hundreds” in 11.9 seconds and consumes 10.5 liters in the city and 8.1 liters on the highway.
- due to high requirements for diesel fuel one of the most interesting power units is not supplied to our country: 1.8 liters with a capacity of 150 hp. and a torque of 300 Nm. It is the best selling ASX engine in Europe due to its excellent dynamic and performance characteristics.
All-wheel drive system
The Mitsubishi company has been producing SUVs for several years, and therefore the technical characteristics of the Mitsubishi ACX are more reminiscent of the older models of the brand.
In the case of ASX, there is one of key features all-wheel drive - the ability to switch modes. Even larger and more expensive crossovers do not provide the owner with a choice of drive, everything is run by electronics. But compact ASX is not, at its discretion, the owner can enable the following modes:
- The "auto" mode, which allows you to leave everything at the mercy of the computer.
- Switch mode exclusively front wheel drive to move around good roads which also saves fuel.
- There is a 4x4 Lock mode that allows you to overcome various kinds of obstacles, and in which rear drive connected forcibly, and does not turn on when the front wheels slip.
ASX trim levels
Pick up ASX package will not be difficult for a wide variety of budgets, the price range of the model is from 699,000 rubles to 1,249,900 rubles. This price range fits 12 different configurations of the model.
Model with base engine 1.6 liters front wheel drive and manual transmission Sold in three versions:
- Inform 2WD - 699,000 r - is Spartan equipped and does not even have heated front seats or any audio system, which is amazing for such a price. Of the devices responsible for comfort, there is only air conditioning.
- Invite 2 WD - 779 990 r - is slightly better equipped and includes a set of the most necessary systems, but there are still 2 airbags for the driver and front passenger, as in the basic version

Conclusion
It is not surprising that the ASX is very popular with domestic buyers, according to the technical specifications, the Mitsubishi ACX clearance is 198 mm, which is simply an outstanding result for a compact crossover. Of the direct competitors, only the Skoda Yeti and Opel Mokka can be singled out, but neither one nor the other will be able to compete with off-road abilities with him and do not have such an impressive ground clearance. ASX sells well not only in our country, but also in Europe. Seeing this state of affairs, Peugeot and Citroen alliance allies even made their crossovers based on ASX: Peugeot 4008 and Citroen С4 AirCross.
This result was achieved thanks to weak engines and modest, outdated equipment in the cheapest configuration. By the standards of crossovers, we can say that Mitsubishi is outdated. If we are talking about an unpretentious and unspoilt luxury person, then the Mitsubishi ASX will be a pleasant find for him. But still, even a driver who has seen a lot this model can both surprise and interest.
Mitsubishi ASX is a parquet SUV that is perfect for the everyday life of an ordinary person. The car is designed on the basis of the sensational Mitsubishi Outlander XL. The wheelbase remained the same, and the dimensions of the crossover were reduced. Car price starts from 734 thousand rubles.
The Japanese have changed new model. Externally, the new ASX turned out to be more sophisticated and attractive compared to its predecessor. New body became streamlined and wedge-shaped, which distinguishes it from the flow of cars on the city highway and technically gives it aerodynamics. Headlight squinting is standard for Mitsubishi models. Its small size is perfect for a modern city.
It does not look so feminine compared to crossovers from other manufacturers, due to sharp side lines. On the front of the new crossover flaunts chrome grille radiator. The updated body has improved noise isolation. The small size of the car will help you feel comfortable in the city when parking, and special systems will help you off-road. The trunk is clearly not suitable for families with children, due to the lack of space for a bicycle or stroller.
was worked out and new design interior. The quality of the finish has improved significantly, due to complaints about past model. New display, medium quality, on the shield. Slightly modified dashboard. Near the steering wheel, there was the same monochrome display that we met in past cars. In the interior of the car, the design of the lever was also changed, the transmission mode was changed and navigation was improved - in the new model it uses memory cards. Regardless of small dimensions, the ASX is built on a more premium platform that has been refined by Mitsubishi engineers.
There is also an adjustment of the front seats in height and reach. In the most expensive configuration, a panoramic roof appeared on top. There was also lighting in the cabin, which will delight passengers and create an atmosphere of comfort.
An excellent view is provided by elaborate windows. Rear parking sensors provide convenient parking in the city. Three people can fit in the back, but when the rear seats are fully loaded, passengers will definitely not feel a comfortable ride.
Between Mitsubishi ASX and Outlander, the company wants to start producing an intermediate version. Why did we decide so? And from the fact that it is easy to come to such a conclusion if you look at the design of the updated ASX. Noise isolation not really high level. At low speeds (3000 per minute), discomfort is not felt, but at 100 km per hour, the noise from under the tires starts to get on your nerves. With more more speed, the sounds of the engine begin to make their way into the cabin. For a person who adheres to the optimal speed limit, no particular discomfort due to noise is foreseen.
Like a real Mitsubishi parquet SUV ACX technical specifications:
- The width varies from 1775 to 1780 mm.
- Length about 4300 mm.
- Ground clearance is 195 mm.
- Wheel size within 2675 mm.
- Height 1625 mm.
- Trunk dimensions 420 l.
- Tank volume 63 l.
- Weight without cargo on board 1300 kg.
- High load 1870 kg.
Mitsubishi ASX characteristics differ from the version of previous years, with a slightly improved transmission, which completely suited the owners in its previous state. It must be said that rear axle Unlike parquet crossovers other manufacturers has a variation of its work. You can either disable or enable it. After the change in the appearance of the car, which occurred in 2015, the dimensions have changed slightly. The trunk has become slightly smaller and the size of the gas tank has decreased to 60 liters.
This brand has high hopes for the Russian market. Before the release of this model, the chief engineers came to Russia in order to find out the feedback from domestic owners.
There have been changes in the Mitsubishi ASX and in the technical characteristics: shock absorbers have been redone, levers with increased fluid have been introduced. The hand brake system is integrated into the brake caliper of one of the rear wheel thrusters. Changes have also taken place in the suspension due to complaints from the owners of the previous version of the SUV.
The updated model is available for the Russian market with three petrol engines:
1.6 liters, whose power is 120 horsepower and a torque of 155 Nm at 4 thousand revolutions per minute. The engine is not very fast. It accelerates to 100 km / h in 11.5 seconds. Its main advantage is economy. In the city, he consumes about 8 liters, and on the highway 6 liters. It has been installed on Mitsubishi since 2004. This motor is reliable, it comes with a five-speed gearbox.
1.8 liters with a power of 140 horsepower and a torque of 177 Nm at 4300 rpm. The unit engine itself is a development of Hyundai and Chrysler. Its disadvantage is that it is more powerful, but the performance of this engine is at a poor level. Overclocking this motor unit 13 seconds to 100 km. Consumes a gasoline unit of 10 liters in the city. On the highway 6.5 liters. Such poor performance due to the non-alternative variable transmission, but there are also advantages - this is an excellent smooth ride. Another main plus is its reliability in conditions of regular oil changes in the car.
2.0 liters- the most powerful motor for this line. It has 150 horsepower and 200 Nm of torque. It is all-wheel drive, with the same variator. It accelerates to a hundred kilometers per hour in 12 seconds and consumes 10 liters in the city and 8 liters on the highway.
There are also 1.8 liter engine. Power 150 horsepower strong motors. Torque 300 Nm. It is the best-selling motor from the ASX line in Europe, but due to the fact that our country has high performance requirements diesel engines, it is not delivered to Russia.
All-wheel drive with the ability to switch modes in ASX is one of the main distinguishing features. This cannot be seen in more expensive cars of this brand. In Mitsubishi ASX, you can enable several modes:
- Auto mode, with the ability to partially control the car.
- Engaging front-wheel drive for driving in good terrain, allowing you to maintain fuel economy.
- All-wheel drive mode. Allows you to move around difficult terrain. Here, the rear-wheel drive works continuously, and not only when the front wheels slip.
Configuration differences
Prices vary by area 700,000 rubles up to 1,250,000 rubles. There are 12 sets in this spread. Technical characteristics Mitsubishi ASX for each configuration is different.
- This is Inform 2WD. Price 700,000 rubles. This configuration does not include heated seats. And also you will not find an audio system in it, which is very strange for a relatively high price compared to competitors. You can only find a simple air conditioner, which is a very dubious achievement.
- Invite 2WD. Price 780000 rubles. Here, comfort is at a good level, but there are also only two airbags - for front passengers.
- Intense 2WD. Price 830000 rubles. The most expensive equipment for the motor, and this assembly is noticeably improved. There are both airbags in the rear and side curtains with a pillow for the knees, for front seat. And also the package includes fog lights, crossover roof rails, leather trim and a steering wheel with a display on the panel.
- Inform 2WD. Price 850000 . Present, in contrast to the configuration of the 1.6 liter engine, 2 pairs of speakers.
- Invite 2WD. Price 900000 . In addition to the motor, the kit includes a motion stabilization system that provides the driver with assistance when lifting. There are also airbags for passengers and the driver, curtains on the windows for the rear seats, a pillow for the driver's knees, light wheels, a screen on the dashboard.
- Intense 2WD. Price 970000 rubles. Compared to the previous configuration, a stability control system and an anti-slip system are also added. And there is also an assistant when driving uphill, leather trim, 3 pairs of speakers, a USB connector,.

The highest cost for Mitsubishi ASX - 1 250 000 rubles. The high cost includes xenon headlights, seventeenth discs, speakers with a subwoofer. And also there is navigation with a panoramic roof.
Outside the city streets, the petrol ASX performs much better. His movement becomes smoother. The gearbox holds the engine, which is boiling in the lower registers, until the car accelerates or hits the off-road. Mitsubishi ASX sounds nice during acceleration, although it does not create a "wow" effect. The gearbox is responsive. Switching between the six preset ratios can feel a bit frustrating, which feels like a step back from the crispness of today's dual clutches, but it works well in practice.
