Engine Displacement: 1,998 cc
The ASX is powered by the 2.0-liter 4B11 MIVEC engine, a naturally aspirated inline-4 that has become a staple of Mitsubishi's reliability. It features the Mitsubishi Innovative Valve timing Electronic Control (MIVEC) system, which continuously adjusts the intake and exhaust timing to provide a balance between low-end fuel efficiency and high-end power delivery. This aluminum-block engine is designed for durability and ease of maintenance.
0-100 km/h: 11.3 Seconds
In its 2WD configuration, the ASX completes the 0-100 km/h sprint in approximately 11.3 seconds. While not a performance-oriented SUV, its power-to-weight ratio is optimized for urban commuting. The top speed is electronically governed at 193 km/h, making it perfectly capable for highway cruising. The acceleration is linear, thanks to the absence of turbo-lag, providing a predictable throttle response in city traffic.
