Mitsubishi has unveiled another limited-edition model to its line-up, the ASX Sport, based on the ASX GLX. Available in grey and white, the new Sport boasts R30,000 worth of additional equipment at the same price as the base model.
Already boasting a host of standard features found in the standard GLX, including daytime running lights, flexible seating, and generous boot space, as well as advanced passive and active safety technology, including a seven-airbag system and HID headlights, the ASX Sport adds a limited-edition Sport decal set, including carbon fibre inserts and strategically-placed black and orange strips.
It is further set apart by a set of new gloss black alloy wheels, adding to the sporty and bold look similarly to that of the popular Triton Athlete, but the biggest addition to the ASX Sport is the new Apple and Android capability of the hugely upgraded infotainment system. The factory-fitted system has a seven-inch LCD screen, Bluetooth, GPS, Android Auto and Apple CarPlay, Touch Key Buttons, and USB Connectors. Bluetooth connectivity allows for hands-free calls and streaming music via your smart phone. All features can be controlled via the touch screen.
Branded ASX Sport carpets distinguish the interior, detailed with leather upholstery, heated front seats, an electrically adjustable driver seat, and a keyless operating system. The ASX Sport is also fitted with a full-length panoramic glass roof and is priced from R399,995.
