Part of the reason for this is that its intriguing range of useful stuff is not actually that cheap, and part of the reason is that these cars are properly built. Oh, and then there's the Evo - legacy of a raucous rallying heyday. ASX Add to Car Bar Cars for sale - ASX The ASX is one of those cars that doesn't do anything radical, but it does most things well. Job done for Mitsubishi? Reckon so. Colt £8,499 - £13,349 Add to Car Bar Cars for sale - Colt Charmingly effortless take on the city car idea.

Above average sense of space3. Entry level price tag WE DON'T LIKE 1. Swollen Mitsubishi nose 2. Cheap interior plastics 3. The fact there's no automatic gearbox The Japanese manufacturer believes it has brought its new family car crossover to market at just the right time, and more importantly, at the right price. The industry's scurry towards C-segment crossovers was instigated by the runaway success of Nissan's Qashqai - the car which combined hatchback-sized practicality with an SUV profile, and flew off the shelves like honey-coated Apple iPads. When the Qashqai was launched, Nissan figured its nearest competitors were the Focus and the Golf, but that class ambiguity has vanished now, and the ASX finds itself vying for buyers' money with direct competitors such as the Skoda Yeti, Peugeot 3008 and indirect competitors such as the Ford Kuga. Like much of the competition, Mitsubishi set Nissan's best-seller as the benchmark when they began work on the ASX. The car is based on the manufacturer's global architecture and shares 70 per cent of its components with the larger Outlander. Unlike the Outlander, it will be available in both two and four-wheel drive, and Mitsubishi expects the latter to make up a very small percentage of overall sales. Beneath the bonnet there is a choice of two engines - a 115bhp 1.6 litre petrol mated to a five-speed gearbox, and the new 147bhp 1.8-litre DiD turbodiesel with a six-speed manual transmission. Mitsubishi is particularly proud of the oil burner, and claims it is the world's first passenger car diesel engine to feature variable valve timing. The all-aluminium lump develops 221lb ft of torque, which helps the ASX deliver a 0-62mph time of 9.7secs, while also managing a claimed 51mpg and 145g/km CO2. The ASX can't quite compete with the frugality of the Qashqai's familiar 1.5 dCI, but the DiD engine does make Mitsubishi's crossover noticeably quicker. Its impression of a 2.0-litre turbodiesel is fairly comprehensive, and though it won't set the world on fire away from the lights its torque output makes it punchy at medium speeds. The ASX's extra performance does have a price though. In the pre-production model we drove the engine delivers its power with a lot of clattery background noise that's complimented by the whistling whine of a warm turbocharger. It's not worryingly obtrusive, but there's certainly no forgetting you bought a diesel. And you won't forget you purchased a high-sided car either. The ASX is more prone to body lean than the Qashqai, and certainly doesn't feel as nimble as the Nissan over challenging roads. The steering is well-weighted though and the car never felt any less than safe and dependable which are the qualities most buyers will expect. While it might not be an aid to handling, that SUV profile does mean extra space inside. Like most crossovers the ASX's extra headroom makes the C-segment hatchbacks seem desperately snug in comparison. The car shares its wheelbase with the Outlander which means even the tallest teenagers will be an easy fit in the back. As advantageous as the spaciousness certainly is, the ASX's appearance is arguably the result of buyers clamouring for the pseudo-SUV look rather than extra practicality. Mitsubishi has tried hard to stretch its corporate nose over the crossover's face, but it doesn't work quite as well as on the smaller Lancer or Colt. Admittedly these things are always subjective, but for our money the ASX's styling isn't quite as well resolved as the Qashqai's. Nevertheless, if you can see past the beauty contest, the ASX has enough going for it to place it on the ever longer shortlist of worthy crossover contenders. Fifth Gear overall car ratings STYLING Be in no doubt: buyers are snapping up the crossovers chiefly for the way they look. The ASX will appeal to you if Mitsubishi's nose does, but driving a swollen Lancer isn't our idea of urban chic. HANDLING The ASX delivers a fairly anonymous experience from behind the wheel. The car doesn't emulate a hatchback's handling as well as some of its competitors, but it is competent nonetheless. COMFORT We'll have to wait to drive the car in the UK to provide a definitive answer, but over smooth German roads the ASX's ride seemed reasonably well judged. Only the jolt from a very occasional pothole suggested there might be issues when the car crosses the channel. QUALITY & RELIABILITY Expect the Mitsubishi to robustly deal with the daily abuse an average family will mete out, but don't expect it to look particularly good doing it. The interior is awash in plastic, and even though it's been moulded into the brand's current styling arrangement, some of its competitors do a better job of hiding their budget limitations. PERFORMANCE In return for its genuinely pokey performance, most buyers will probably accept the 1.8 DiD's lack of refinement. The 1.6-litre petrol engine isn't too far behind, but it does have to struggle by with half of the diesel's torque output. ROOMINESS Like most crossovers, this is the ASX's trump card. Its comparatively long wheelbase and SUV roofline means it feels particularly spacious - perhaps even more so than its arch enemy, the Qashqai. The Mitsubishi should swallow an average family whole. STEREO / SAT NAV You'll need to select the highest trim level if you want a sat-nav as standard, but if you do you'll get also get a Kenwood system thrown in, which should be a decent step up from Mitsubishi's mediocre standard unit. RUNNING COSTS Neither engine should be particularly expensive to run. Mitsubishi claims the petrol will return 47mpg and the diesel 51mpg. The latter produces 145g/km CO2 placing it in VED band F, while the slightly cleaner petrol makes it into band E with 138g/km. VALUE FOR MONEY Mitsubishi has priced the ASX to compete. Again the Qashqai is the benchmark, and the manufacturer has ensured that it enters the market with a lower price tag. However, buyers will need to be convinced by the ASX's higher performance as the 1.5dCI is cheaper than Mitsubishi's new diesel. ENVIRONMENT Both the ASX's engines benefit from the addition of Mitsubishi's environmental package known as ClearTec. This includes automatic stop & go, electric power steering, regenerative braking system and low rolling resistance tyres.

Report as inappropriate 4 alex Parker13 July 2010 5th Gear have obviously not test driven the ASX. I have done so and it is excellent value for money and compared with its competitors it is streaks ahead. I like the Jet Fighter Nose styling and its green appeal. I am ordering one as my Company Car. The only limitation in my mind is restriced colour choie and as stated thack of automatic gearbox. Report as inappropriate 4 Adam Dillon17 July 2010 Just test driven the Mitsubishi ASX 1.8 diesel. Must say was pleasantly surprised with the drive (great engine), however not sure it will be too happy with corners at speed. Cabin felt spacious, and it had a good level of equipment. I had also test driven the Nissan Qashqai 1.5dci N-Tec earlier in the day, and to be honest I did prefer the cabin and overall feel of it. I am stuck with a decision now as the Mitsubishi engine was noticeably more powerful, and I do like the (jet fighter) looks of the ASX. Nissan plastics were much better and seats were far comfier. Trouble is, everyone seems to have a Qashqai!!! thus also proving to be a good choice. Report as inappropriate 4 Matt Sneyd21 July 2010 Having just test drove and placed an order for the ASX I was very impressed with practically aspects of the car. In particular the 'Jet fighter' nose which sets it apart from the bland competition. It knocks socks of the quashquai effort! Report as inappropriate 4 George Whitelock06 August 2010 Having been searching for some time for replace my now ageing 7 year old Mercedes Ml320, which I had from new, I have test driven just about every 4 wheel drive crossover currently on the market. The Mitsibushi ASX4 ticked all the boxes from looks, comfort, handling, space, economy and price, even when you spec up to leather interior etc.....loved it !! Collecting my 4 wheel drive ASX4 in September, can't wait. Report as inappropriate 4 Paulo Alexandre10 August 2010 Waiting for my silver ASX, tried the nissan and the yeti, but the panoramic roof and the engine conquered me. Plus, love the jet fighter nose. Regards from Portugal Report as inappropriate 4 Mark Cristiano15 August 2010 Although Car Sites and Magazines like Top Gear, Fifth Gear, What Car etc are professional you have to take their reviews with a pinch of salt. I love the fighter nose .. it;s much better then on the Colt which seems to have been messed up with the design.. and i love the turqouise or maroon colour... Waiting for it to come to Malta together with the Juke to see what to go for.. There are too many Qashqais especially a lot are being imported from UK so don't want to be part of the crowd! Report as inappropriate 5 Zharter16 August 2010 I did test drive ASX and Qashqai and franky, there is very little I can agree with in this review. I think ASX is a great value for money car. This review is rather subjective, but thanks for it anyway. Report as inappropriate 4 Shelagh McGee16 August 2010 Have to disagree with this review! I just test drove both the 1.8 2wd ASX3 and the VW Tiguan as I was torn between the two and am sick of the sight of qashqai's everywhere. ASX won hands down! Very comfortable, handled great & very smooth ride. ASX was a responsive nippy drive much like a smaller hatch and with plenty oomph when needed! Agreed the interior trim lets it down slightly, but the standard technical spec and economy of the engine more than compensate. I averaged 46mpg over the test drive which was through town and motorway so is perfect for my commute and I now too look forward to getting mine soon! Report as inappropriate This review has been removed. 4 Tony Wood10 September 2010 Have to disagree with 5th gears rating. I’ve had my ASX3 4WD since the end of July now and have nothing but good things to say about the car. I bought the car after sampling ALL the ‘C’ segment crossover offerings . Admittedly the ‘fighter plane’ front isn’t to everyone taste, (I love it)and the interior is a little sombre, but the cost of the car, the technology used and the fact that mine is returning between 57-61mpg Urban and has max’ed 74mpg, isn’t to be sneezed at. What actually swung the purchase for me was that I’m 6’8” and found that the ASX was the only car out of all the rest in this segment that I can get in, and drive.

I was a ford man but now won over by the ASX. Im 6'-5" tall and never been so comfortable as in this car. heated backrest seat is a boon for heat on my lower back, no back ache after a 200 mile round trip. Cannot fault this car ...except for .... slightly lacking in power in 2nd / 3rd until 2000rpm when the turbo kicks in ... then whooosh ... Sorry mr Ford ... i'm a mitsu man now.
