There’s no denying it \u2013 Australia’s small SUV segment is brimming with impressive choices. From the feature-laden Kia Seltos to the head-turning Mazda CX-3, carmakers are pulling out all the stops. But the 2024 Mitsubishi ASX<\/strong><\/a>, a well-known name on Aussie roads, is still in the game. The question is, can this veteran SUV hold its own against the new generation of rivals?<\/p>\n

       <\/p>\n

      How Much Does it Cost?<\/h2>\n

      The beauty of the ASX is its affordability. Prices start at a very attractive $24,490 (MR FWD) and climb to $35,240 (GSR FWD) for the top-of-the-range model. This makes it a compelling option for budget-conscious buyers looking for a practical SUV.<\/p>\n

      Features and Benefits<\/h2>\n

      Packing a Punch for Everyday Needs<\/strong><\/h4>\n

      Let’s be honest, the ASX<\/strong> isn’t going to win any awards for cutting-edge tech or luxurious interiors. But what it offers is a solid package of features that cater to everyday driving needs. All models come with a 2.0-liter petrol engine known for its reliability and decent fuel economy (around 7.6L\/100km).<\/p>\n

      Inside, you’ll find a comfortable cabin with enough space for five adults and a surprising amount of cargo room in the back. Standard features include a reversing camera, Bluetooth connectivity, and a decent infotainment system. Higher-end models add niceties like climate control and leather upholstery.<\/p>\n

      Safety<\/h2>\n

      Not the Strongest Suit, But Adequate<\/h4>\n

      While the ASX<\/strong> hasn’t received an updated ANCAP safety rating, it does come with essential features like airbags, anti-lock brakes, and electronic stability control. However, it lacks some of the advanced driver-assistance systems (ADAS) that are becoming increasingly common, such as lane departure warning and autonomous emergency braking. This might be a concern for safety-conscious buyers.<\/p>\n
