ASX’s 2.0-liter powerhouse uses a lightweight aluminum block for optimum performance as it puts out 110kW (150PS) to take control of city streets and open highways alike. MIVEC (Mitsubishi Innovative Valve timing Electronic Control system) technology provides optimal valve timing at both low and high rev ranges, to give the most of every curve and straightaway out there.
INVECS-III CVT with 6-step Sports Mode
The 2.0-liter engine is teamed with INVECS-III CVT (Continuously Variable Transmission) featuring Sports Mode, ideally tuned to deliver effortless acceleration from any speed. Sports Mode offers all the sporty control of manual shifting without the hassle of a clutch.
Electronically Controlled 4WD
Using one centrally located button, the system permits freely switching between 3 drive modes depending on driving condition or environment. Easily accessible on the floor console, the drive-mode selector button can quickly change the ASX’s drive mode from fuel-efficient 2WD, to 4WD Lock Mode for mastering even demanding off-road or weather conditions.
Suspensions
ASX features MacPherson strut front and multi-link rear suspensions for smooth handling over rough roads. Shock absorbers and stabilizers are tuned for sporty, comfortable performance.
To carry even larger items, the rear seat can be folded down completely flat to create an expansive cargo space. The 60:40 split rear seat can also be partially folded down, giving you the room to carry bicycles or other extra-long items, while still having rear seating available.
Cargo Capacity
No matter where you’re headed, ASX lets you carry whatever you need for when you get there, with up to 358 liters of available cargo capacity with five passengers. The tailgate is wide enough to provide ample space for even the bulkiest items, and the low floor height makes it convenient to move heavy cargo in and out.
1,350mm maximum width of cargo area.
1,510mm maximum length with rear seats folded down.

Mounted within easy reach, the paddle shifters allow you to enjoy sporty control while keeping both hands safely on the wheel. Shifting is quick and easy, with up- and down-shifts requiring just a simple press once ASX is in ‘D’ mode. For added convenience, the current gear position is clearly displayed on the multi-information display. Paddle shifters can also be equipped with cruise control, for greater performance on the road.
Bluetooth® Hands-free Kit
Keep in touch while keeping safely in control with the hands-free kit. Link your Bluetooth®-compatible mobile phone, and the voice-activated dialer lets you make calls while holding the wheel. Note: Bluetooth® is a trademark of Bluetooth SIG Inc.
High Hip Point and Good Visibility
ASX provides a surprisingly elevated seat position that, with the sloping hood design, gives a better view of the road for easier manoeuvring and greater safety. The raised hip point also allows for smoother entrances and exits, and greater comfort.
Color Liquid Crystal Multi-information Display
Attractively designed color liquid crystal multi-information display provides a useful readout of vehicle, trip and outside temperature. With a large, 3.3-inch size for improved visibility, this display makes it easy for drivers to stay informed.

*Mph display also available for certain regions.
During hard breaking and on slippery roads, the ABS (Anti-lock Braking System) helps prevent wheel lock and maintain steering control. Regardless of passenger number, luggage load, or road conditions, EBD (Electronic Brake-force Distribution) evenly distributes braking force to the rear wheels, adding to overall safety.
Dual Airbag System
So that you and your passengers can be safer in the event of a collision, ASX is equipped with a 7-airbag system to provide increased safety to every seat. The front seats are protected by front airbags, plus an additional knee airbag for the driver to help protect the legs in a forward collision. In a side collision, occupants in both rows are protected by curtain airbags extending along the sides.
Hill Start Assist (HSA)
HSA prevents the vehicle from rolling backward by automatically braking when starting on an uphill slope.
Active Stability Control (ASC)
Stability Control Function:
ASC uses onboard sensors to analyze the vehicle’s motion and identify lateral wheel slippage. By governing engine output and controlling braking to the appropriate wheels, ASC helps maintain stability and traction control.
Traction Control Function:
When wheel spin is detected, engine output is governed and braking force is applied to the spinning wheels to prevent driving torque loss.
Super Wide Range HID Headlamps
What you can’t see, can hurt you. To take more of the road out of the shadows, ASX features Super Wide Range HID (High Intensity Discharge) headlamps. When activated, the headlamp clusters send out broader beams of light, illuminating a much wider section of the road ahead.
