The 2024 Mitsubishi ASX range of configurations is currently priced from $16,990.
Our most recent review of the 2024 Mitsubishi ASX resulted in a score of 6 out of 10 for that particular example.
Carsguide Contributing Journalist Emily Agar had this to say at the time: The Mitsubishi ASX ES Street can more than handle being an urban dweller. The Street style pack makes this model stand out and the cabin is practical enough that it’s a good alternative for smaller families in the city. I get why the ASX is popular and I like the basic and traditional nature of this model on most fronts but not for the safety and tech. Not in this day and age against all of the well-equipped rivals it faces.

This is what Emily Agar liked most about this particular version of the Mitsubishi ASX: Dead simple to operate, Still looks neat and tidy for styling, Spacious cabin space for class
The 2024 Mitsubishi ASX carries a braked towing capacity of up to 1300 Kg, but check to ensure this applies to the configuration you're considering.
The Mitsubishi ASX is also known as Mitsubishi Outlander Sport in markets outside Australia.
The Mitsubishi ASX 2024 prices range from $20,240 for the basic trim level SUV Gs (2Wd) to $35,420 for the top of the range SUV Exceed (2Wd).
Standard accessories for the ASX include 16-inch steel wheels, five-speed manual transmission, LED headlights, LED daytime running lights, black fabric upholstery, manual air conditioning, cruise control, power-folding side mirrors, Bluetooth connectivity, wired Apple CarPlay, wired Android Auto, two USB-A ports, reversing camera and 8.0-inch touchscreen multimedia system.
It doesn’t really matter whether this is a common problem or not, a malfunctioning camera is a major safety issue as it means critical safety systems in your car are not working. This is a major safety issue and one that has legality and insurance ramifications in the right (or wrong) circumstances.
It’s worth mentioning that this model ASX was recalled to attend to a software issue that could cause some safety features (including the ones you’ve listed) to not work properly. Your car also falls within the manufacturing dates of affected vehicles. Perhaps that’s the clue you need to solve this. A check with a Mitsubishi dealer will reveal whether your car was affected and if it’s been fixed.

It sounds like there’s something pretty major wrong inside the transmission. The lack of drive in reverse is allowing the engine to 'flare' (rev up) because there’s no load on the engine when this happens.
But before you do anything else, check the level of transmission fluid in the gearbox to make sure it’s not low. A low fluid level can cause these symptoms, too, so you need to rule out the easy stuff first.

This has been an ongoing problem for many owners of many different makes and models of cars fitted with Diesel Particulate Filters (DPFs). The process of dumping fuel into the engine is designed to get the exhaust system hot enough for the DPF regeneration (self-cleaning) to take place. But a car that travels 500km per week really shouldn’t need this as the exhaust system should be getting hot enough in the normal course of things.
Either way, if you constantly have excess fuel being dumped into the engine, some of it will find its way into the sump (as you’ve discovered). That’s when the check engine light signals the problem, but in the meantime, you’re also driving around with engine oil diluted by the extra fuel. And that’s when engine wear can occur because diluted oil isn’t able to protect the engine’s metal parts as well as it should.
It could be that the car’s sensors are giving the computer the wrong information on how hot it’s getting, and/or how dirty the DPF is. Perhaps the DPF itself is damaged to the point where it won’t regenerate fully. A diesel specialist would be a good place to start, as this problem is hardly unknown these days.

There are seven standard colours to choose from, such as, ‘White’, ‘White Diamond’, ‘Sterling Silver’, ‘Titanium’, ‘Black’, ‘Lightning Blue’, and ‘Red Diamond’.
‘Sunshine Orange’ is a paint colour that is exclusive to the MR, GSR and Exceed models.
The boot is a good size at 393L and you get a temporary spare tyre underneath the floor. The load space is level and the tailgate isn’t powered but it’s not a heavy lid to operate.
You can bump up the capacity by folding the rear seats flat to 1193L or 1143L for the top model.

The Mitsubishi ASX interior is not one to thrill but it gets the job done with minimal fuss and fanfare. The dashboard is uncluttered with three dials to operate your climate and an 8.0-inch touchscreen multimedia system.
There’s something charming about how pared back it is that you don’t immediately feel taken aback by the traditional gear shifter, handbrake and turn-key operation.
On higher grades you will enjoy a push-button start and keyless entry. A panoramic sunroof is available on the top model.
The entry-level ASX GS can be optioned with a continuously variable transmission or a five-speed manual gearbox, otherwise, all other models feature a CVT.
Depending on the grade, you can either have a 2.0-litre four-cylinder petrol engine (110kW/197Nm) or a 2.4-litre four-cylinder petrol engine (123kW/222Nm).
The Mitsubishi ASX comes with five seats, configured in a 2/3 arrangement.
Black cloth upholstered seats come standard on the bottom three grades but are upgraded to synthetic micro suede/leather upholstery on the GSR grade and leather-appointed upholstery on the top model.
Until you get into the top model, the front seats adjust manually. On the top model, the drivers’ seat is electric and both front seats have a heat function.
The back seat features a 60/40 split-fold and has a fold-down armrest that has two cupholders.
Expect 2.4-litre versions of the ASX to accelerate from 0-100km/h in around nine seconds, and 2.0-litre models in a bit over 10 seconds. The ASX top speed is 170km/h.
For the models with the 2.0-litre engine, expect to see a driving range of around 829km, which is based on the official combined cycle fuel consumption figure of 7.6L/100km and its 63-litre fuel tank.
For the models with the larger 2.4-litre engine, expect to see a driving range of around 797km, which is based on the official 7.9L/100km number and its 63-litre fuel tank.
