Mitsubishi ASX Crossover Revealed

[See the latest iMOTOR magazine here]

Mitsubishi has decided that it needs to clean up its act. So instead of concentrating on building big SUVs, pickup trucks and the Evo, it's diversifying into stuff like this new ASX crossover.

RVR in Japan. That's Rover in text speak
We've already seen the Japanese version of this car, the RVR, but the proper European-spec Nissan Qashqai rival will be on display at Geneva Motor Show for us to check out in the metal.

Downsizing
And the ASX is just the start of a downsizing, general cleaning up revolution for the Japanese firm. The electric i Miev goes on sale later this year, then there's the prospect of a hybrid and electric version of the next Lancer to look forward to. But will it dare to build a proper, performance hybrid Evo XI? We shall see.
