Mitsubishi Introduces the Value-Packed ASX Platinum

By: PRLog
PR Log - Jan 15, 2012 - With numerous style, safety and convenience upgrades, Mitsubishi Motors Australia Limited’s (MMAL) ASX two-wheel drive Platinum Edition is packed with extra features at no extra cost, making the already popular city-sized SUV even more appealing.

The interior of the ASX Platinum has been upgraded to include leather seat trim, heated front seats and powered driver’s seat with slide, recline and height adjustment functions. Convenience has been increased through the inclusion of steering wheel mounted audio and Bluetooth 2.0 controls.

The addition of a reversing camera and reversing sensors in the Platinum ASX boosts driver visibility and awareness. The camera monitor appears in the electro-chromatic rear-view mirror automatically when reverse gear is engaged to give the driver a view of the vehicle’s reversing path.

The exterior of the ASX Platinum has been updated through the addition of chrome muffler tip, front fog lamps and a special Platinum badge on the tailgate.

MMAL vice-president of Customer and Brand Management, Paul Unerkov, welcomed the ASX Platinum to the Mitsubishi range saying he expects the feature-packed edition to be popular at Mitsubishi dealerships across Australia.

“The ASX two-wheel drive is already a well-appointed vehicle and these additional features  highlight the superior value of the Platinum variant,” Unerkov said.

The ASX Platinum is an SUV powered by the efficient 2.0-litre MIVEC four-cylinder engine, and is available as a two-wheel drive with manual or CVT transmission.

ASX Platinum features Active Stability Control, dual front, side and curtain and driver’s knee SRS airbags, ABS braking system with Electronic Brake Force Distribution and Mitsubishi’s Reinforced Impact Safety Evolution body system.

The two-wheel drive ASX Platinum will be on sale at a recommended retail price of $25,990 for the manual and $28,490 for the automatic. Note, prices do not include dealer delivery, insurance or on road costs.

The ASX Platinum Edition is available in White, Cool Silver, Black, Red, Sapphire Blue, Titanium, and Kingfisher Blue.

Mitsubishi offers a 10 year / 160,000 km non-transferrable drive-train warranty, five year / 130,000 km new car warranty, five year / 130,000km Roadside Assist and Capped Price Servicing for the first four years or 60,000 km of ownership* on all new vehicles.
