Street Cred and First Impressions

The Mitsubishi ASX wears its crossover looks with confidence: compact proportions, a tall bonnet and a squared-off rear give it presence in town without trying to dominate the car park. At 4,239 mm long it slots into the busy compact-SUV class, striking a balance between neat urban dimensions and a purposeful stance. The design is sensible rather than showy, which means it will age cleanly and avoid the flash-in-the-pan look of some rivals.

Cabin Mood and Usability

Inside, the ASX opts for a pragmatic layout where ergonomics matter more than gimmicks, with reachable controls and supportive seats that suit long commutes and school runs alike. Materials combine soft-touch areas with durable plastics—nothing overly premium but built to withstand real use, and comfort levels are generally good for this segment. The driving position is slightly elevated, making ingress and visibility straightforward for drivers of different heights.

Everyday Space That Works

Practicality is a strong suit: five seats, a useful 484 litres of boot space and a fully flat-folding rear that expands to as much as 1,596 litres with seats down make the ASX handy for weekend gear and supermarket runs. A 48‑litre fuel tank and a payload around the 400–450 kg mark mean the car copes with family kit without drama. Rear-seat space is decent for a compact SUV, though taller passengers may feel the roofline pinch on long trips.

On the Road: Composed and Predictable

All ASX models are front‑wheel drive, which keeps things simple and predictable, and the chassis tuning favours comfort over sharp handling—body control is composed but not sporty, ideal for relaxed everyday driving. Performance depends heavily on the engine: the 91 hp 1.0 turbo needs about 14 seconds for 0–100 km/h, the 1.3 turbo MHEV options sit in the ~10–8.5 second range depending on tune, while the 1.8 full‑hybrid is around 8.9 seconds, so overtaking ability varies from leisurely to brisk. Steering is light and confidence‑instilling in town, with motorway stability that makes longer runs less tiring than the size might suggest.

Fuel Bills, Real-World Range and What the Numbers Mean

Fuel consumption reflects the drivetrain choice: the petrol 1.0 figures near 6.0 L/100 km are practical for urban and mixed use, while the full hybrid can return around 4.4 L/100 km under favourable conditions, translating to markedly lower running costs. With a 48‑litre tank the petrol versions can realistically cover roughly 700–800 km between fill‑ups in normal use, and the hybrid can exceed 1,000 km in relaxed driving. CO2 output and consumption vary by specification, so choosing the hybrid gets clear benefits for frequent motorway miles or stop‑start city work.

Electronics, Safety and Everyday Tech

Technology is straightforward and focused on usefulness: the ASX offers a clear infotainment interface with smartphone mirroring for Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, and the driver assistance suite includes adaptive cruise, lane‑keep aids and autonomous emergency braking as standard or widely available options. The setup is user‑friendly rather than cutting‑edge, prioritising reliability and easy operation over flashy interfaces. In practice this means fewer distractions and more time paying attention to the road.

The Buyer Who’ll Get the Most from It

The ASX suits buyers after a compact, no-nonsense crossover that emphasises practicality, low running costs and an easy driving experience rather than sporty thrills or luxury finishes. It’s a strong choice for small families, commuters and anyone who values sensible running costs—especially if choosing the 1.3 MHEV or 1.8 full‑hybrid for better economy. For those chasing excitement or premium cabin materials, rivals may offer more, but for dependable everyday use the ASX makes a convincing, sensible case.
