The Mitsubishi ASX , a compact crossover with ICE, hybrid, and plugin hybrid electric vehicle models, is anticipated to hit the market in march 2023 as it recently debuted in Europe.
According to Motor1.com, the external appearance of the ASX is highly chiseled. The car’s grille features bracket-shaped trim up front, and the headlights are complexly designed with running lights in the form of hooks below the primary lamps. Remarkably, the crossover is offered in six different colors. There are also higher-level trims with black roofs available.
Notably, the interior of the ASX may appear significantly different based on the trim level. The entry model’s interior includes an analog instrument cluster with a 4.2-inch screen. Additionally, the range-topping model comes with a 10.25-inch digital instrument display or a 7.0-inch version.
Meanwhile, the typical infotainment screen has a landscape design and measures 7.0 inches. A 9.3-inch display with a portrait arrangement is an improvement that enables wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto.
It is worth noting that the Renault, Nissan, and Mitsubishi Alliance CMF-B platform serves as the foundation for the ASX, which offers five different powertrains.
