Pros High-quality cabin, logical tech, reliable EV range
Cons Execution of plug-in power needs some smoothing out
Pros Punchy plug-in hybrid drivetrain Big step up in build quality and materials Sporty diesel and petrol engines en route
Cons Ride tends to crash over potholes and corrugations No DC charging or V2G/V2L capability Six-cylinder engines still a while away
The Mitsubishi ASX doesn’t get the pulse racing, and its size makes it better for inner-urban use than open road touring. Because fuel economy can suffer if the engine is required to work too hard, it’s also better suited to terrain where engine performance is less of an issue.
Pros Flexible, pragmatic interior Well-specified equipment list Goldilocks size for inner-urban use
Cons Outdated material and build quality Drivetrain really lacks verve NVH and wind noise
Pros Phone integration; spacious interior; five-year warranty.
Cons Tyre noise.
The Mitsubishi ASX is a compact SUV that is, well, a little bit boring – something that matters in a class full of funky rivals such as the Renault Captur, Peugeot 2008 and Honda HR-V.
Pros Low running costs Roomy interior Decent levels of kit
Cons Not game changing Not very stylish Plasticky interior
