The LS is the entry point of the second-generation Mitsubishi ASX line-up. It kicks off at $37,740 before on-road costs, which is more than $10,000 more than the previous entry grade. But grade for grade it’s about $7K dearer.
The new gen ASX has no relationship whatsoever to the model it replaces. Rather than being a Mitsubishi creation, it’s based on the current Renault Captur, thanks to the Renault-Nissan-Mitsubishi Alliance.
That means it’s powered by a Renault 1.3-litre turbocharged four-cylinder petrol engine offering up 113kW/270Nm. It’s paired with a seven-speed dual-clutch transmission driving the front wheels only.
Fuel use is 6.4L/100km, which is not bad. It uses 91 RON fuel and has a 48-litre tank which makes for a theoretical driving range of about 750km.
The LS comes standard with a 10.4-inch multimedia screen with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, DAB digital radio, Bluetooth, six-speaker audio, digital driver display, USB-C ports, proximity key, keyless entry and start, single-zone climate control, power and heated door mirrors, cloth seats and 17-inch alloy wheels.
The LS misses out on a bunch of things compared with the higher grades, like Google Built-in, and safety gear like blind-spot warning, rear cross-traffic alert, and adaptive cruise control (it has old-school cruise control) as well as front parking sensors.
It is available with Mitsubishi’s extended 10-year/200,000km warranty and 10 years of roadside assistance and capped-price servicing.
