Body of Mitsubishi ASX 2017

Mitsubishi ASX 2017 immediately after the appearance of the first photos from the exhibition caused delight. This is due to the fact that the Japanese automaker completely transformed the car, as it used completely new ideas in creating the exterior. The new Mitsubishi ASX 2017 can be described as follows:

• In general, the style of the front end resembles - the same features that can be traced in the form of the radiator grille and framing of the front fenders. However, the car turned out to be unlike others, as it has a number of innovations.
• The first thing you immediately notice is the narrowed front optics. This feature is perhaps the main difference from the Outlander in front. In the manufacture of optics, modern technologies were used, which made it possible to install structures consisting of diodes instead of standard lenses. That is why it became possible to make small optics without losing the light emission index.
• The radiator grille is made in a classic style for the car in question. It has a small width and one stripe on which the Japanese automaker's badge is located.

• The bumper is massive, like its counterpart, it is made in black, has a glossy surface and a large air intake. The lower part of the structure resembles a pallet protection.
• The body itself has a complex shape. Its shape tapers from the beginning of the head optics, then expands again at the end of the grille. At the same time, there is a frame that emphasizes the complexity of the design.
• The hood has a standard look, the surface is modified by several ribs.
• Fog lights are located in close proximity to the chassis. In this case, the former have a standard round shape, the latter are elongated rectangular.
• When looking at the side, we can say that it looks simple, but at the same time a little aggressive due to raising the line of the wheel arches. Thus, the automaker also allowed for the installation of large diameter wheels, starting from 17 inches.
• The rear of the car has a classic design, the already familiar taillights.

Considering the new Mitsubishi ASX 2017 photo, the prices of complete sets and the cost of the options of which will be noted below, it immediately seems that the car is intended for progressive youth, since it will not go unnoticed in the traffic flow. Plus, it is possible to order a crossover in an unusual color, for example, bright yellow.

Interior features

The dimensions of the new generation have been slightly increased, but, as before, the car is designed exclusively for 5 people. Despite the emerging news about the development of a 7-seater version, it will not be on sale, since the 2017 Mitsubishi ASX model year in Russia and other countries occupies the niche of compact crossovers.

Despite its relatively small size, it is comfortable in the car. In this case, the following interior features can be distinguished:

• High quality materials are used for finishing. Much attention has also been paid to the quality of the gaps. In addition, the Japanese have worked on the location of all controls, making them as convenient as possible.
• The steering wheel is the same as on other new generations of some representatives of the Japanese car industry. An example is the presence of two separate blocks with keys to control the main functions, as well as the presence of a lower divider.
• The instrument panel is also made in a classic style: two brightly expressed scales of the speedometer and tachometer, which are placed in the wells, there are other sensors around. There was also a place for a small display on which all important information should be displayed. If necessary, you can customize the operation of this display.

• The central panel is pronounced and divided into three levels. In the top version, at the very top level, there are two ducts, under which the display of the multimedia system is located. It has buttons on the sides that are responsible for the most important functions, as well as touch controls.
• Below the screen of the multimedia system is the climate control unit. It is made in the form of three round regulators, with the help of which the operation of the climate system is adjusted.
• There are no controls around the gear lever. Only a little closer to the seat is the cup holder and the handbrake lever. An armrest is located directly between the seats, which acts as a glove compartment.
• In the back row, the space is relatively small, it is made in the form of a regular sofa with headrests, if necessary, you can divide it with an armrest.

In general, the interior looks simple and lacks attractive features. First of all, this is due to the fact that Mitsubishi ASX 2017, the price of this car varies in a wide range, belongs to the budget class.

Based on the Concept c-X, the car is designated as a dynamic crossover, but some of its details, including details of the exterior, pass it off as a half-truck SUV. The official debut of the model took place in 2010 at the Geneva motor show, then few people suspected that the crossover would gain immense popularity among consumers who would wait with trepidation for further updates to the line.

Appearance of the updated generation

As you know, they meet a car according to their "clothes", and they see off according to their technical characteristics. Therefore, as the first feature of the crossover, we can single out its appearance. Its X-shaped design has replaced the already trivial radiator grille with an aggressive one. Now, thanks to the new grille, the ASX looks like a matured version of itself, and the redesigned bumper optics are the culmination of puberty. The new side mirror housings with LED turn signal repeaters have also added assertiveness.

From changes for the better in the aspect of the interior, the steering wheel design has changed. He got a glossy insert right in the center. Photo: suvcar.ru

A special feature is the new multimedia system, the size of which, however, remains the same. The ASX boasts new seat upholstery and it is worth noting that the material of the upholstery, indeed, came to all other parts of the cabin just right. As for the profile of the car, it still sports large wheel arches, but the R16-17 wheels themselves have been modified in comparison with the old version of the ASX. As a new addition, the car also acquired a bumper with LED foglights built into it, a refined plastic trim and a spectacular chrome strip on the bumper.

Vehicle dimensions are as follows:

• length - 4295 mm;
• width - 1770 mm;
• height - 1625 mm.

Inside, the car has practically not changed at all, however, this does not prevent it from being a stylish and modern crossover. In addition to the steering wheel with three diamonds in the center, which are integral elements of the Mitsubishi emblem, in front of the owner is a sports instrument panel with a large tachometer and speedometer. The seat has excellent ergonomics, thanks to which even a driver who is driving this monster for the first time will very quickly get used to it and will no longer want to leave his workplace.

The front seats have a high level of comfort and can be individually adjusted for each person sitting thanks to a wide range of adjustment parameters. Photo: mnmcdn.com

In terms of its spaciousness, according to the company's engineers, the crossover is five-seater, but it cannot be said that the spaciousness of the rear sofa pampers the fifth passenger with a huge amount of free space. The salon has good noise and vibration isolation. The capacity of the trunk is quite tolerable at 384 liters, while the space occupied by the spare wheel and repair kit is not taken into account.

If necessary, the back of the rear sofa can be lowered to a horizontal position and then an unimaginable space will open before us, which can be used for the purpose of cargo transportation.

Technical features

Describing the criterion of the technical characteristics of the car, it is worth noting that the updated ASX is an absolute analogue of its predecessor. This fact means that the same gasoline crossover models will go on sale on the Russian car market:

• the first model is represented by a 1.6-liter engine with a capacity of 117 "horses". The motor will be equipped with a 5-speed manual transmission. Front-wheel drive transmission. The engine of the specified power will easily provide acceleration from 0 to 100 km / h in 11.4 seconds. The maximum speed it develops is 183 km / h, and the average fuel consumption varies from 6.5 to 8 l / 100 km, depending on driving style;
• the second model of the crossover is stuffed with a 1.8-liter gasoline engine, the power of which is set at 140 "forces", the variator is stepless, the transmission can be either front-wheel drive or all-wheel drive. 13 seconds is enough to accelerate the car from 0 to 100 km / h. The maximum speed is 186 km / h;
• the third model is based on a 150-horsepower engine with a total volume of 2 liters. There is a CVT variator and a plug-in all-wheel drive, which can operate in three modes. The car accelerates from zero to 100 km / h in 12 seconds without one tenth, and its maximum speed is 188 km / h. Fuel consumption in the combined cycle is 8-9 liters, it all depends on the driving preferences of the driver. Consumption figures on the highway are close to 6.7 l / 100 km.

How ASX was introduced - see this video:

The basic equipment of the car will cost the future car owner $ 19.6 thousand (at the current dollar rate, about 1.12 million rubles), however, if a car of the maximum configuration is purchased, the driver will have to pay a hard-earned amount of $ 25.2 thousand (about 1, 52 million rubles), which, at first glance, may seem too high. However, as soon as you turn your gaze to the list of equipment installed in both versions, everything becomes clear.

The basic configuration is represented by the following functionality:

• Mechanical checkpoint;
• anti-lock braking system (EBD);
• bA system, which helps with emergency braking;
• mASC system;
• mATC system;
• an assistant providing support when starting up the hill;
• 7 AIRBAG;
• wheels in size R16;
• front fog lights;
• air conditioning;
• audio system with support for mp3-format and 4 speakers;
• color multimedia display
• absolutely complete electric package;
• function of heating the driver's seat and front passenger seat;
• steering wheel covered with leather with the ability to control the audio system;
• central locking that can be controlled remotely
• immobilizer.

The top-of-the-line equipment includes the following:

• stepless variator;
• all-wheel drive multiselect system;
• 17-inch wheels;
• xenon optics;
• headlight washers;
• light sensor and rain sensor;
• climate control for 2 zones;
• cruise control;
• advanced audio system with support for data transmission via Bluetooth.

Sales start

The start of sales of Mitsubishi ASX on the world market is scheduled for around the spring of 2017, the first, of course, will be able to buy a car from Asian countries, this is not surprising. The start of sales in Russia is also expected in 2017, the price category of a car in Russia will be characterized by an initial cost of a basic configuration of one million rubles. The price category of the car, of course, focuses on consumers with an average income level.

The price for the Mitsubishi ASX is more than justified, since today Mitsubishi's competitors in the crossover field cannot offer the functionality presented above for such a sum.

A similar arsenal of similar functions from competitors in general will cost 200-300 thousand rubles more. The price of the crossover, we recall, will start at 1,100,000 rubles and reach one and a half million.
