The 80th edition of the Geneva International Motor Show has already got motoring enthusiasts’ mouths watering, even though we’re still more than a month away from the event.
Though the show doesn’t kick off until March 2, another major manufacturer has announced a debutant vehicle for the event – with Mitsubishi premiering its ASX compact crossover.
The European-spec version, which is one of several powertrains, will include an all-new Euro-5 compliant 1.8l turbocharged direct-injection diesel engine that has been jointly developed between Mitsubishi Motor Corporation and Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, Ltd. It will boast automatic stop and go technology, as well as a six-speed manual transmission.
The Mitsubishi ASX is the European version of the Japanese RVR which goes on sale in Japan next month. It will seat five and will be sequentially introduced across Europe from late spring following in the tyre tracks of the larger Outlander vehicle.
