About the Mitsubishi ASX
The 2016 Mitsubishi ASX received a significant facelift to incorporate the brand's 'Dynamic Shield' visual identity, featuring a more aggressive front grille and revised lighting. As the entry-level '2' trim, it was aimed at budget-conscious buyers looking for SUV styling and high seating without the complexity of four-wheel drive. The 1.6-litre MIVEC petrol engine is a naturally aspirated unit prioritising reliability and efficiency over outright performance. While it lacks the refinement of its European rivals, the ASX is noted for its robust build and generous interior space relative to its compact footprint.
