The revised 15MY ASX is quieter, smoother and more refined, and offers better on-road performance thanks to improved ride comfort, handling stability and sharper, more responsive steering feel.
ASX gains Daytime Running Lamps (DRLs), new-design 17-inch alloy wheels, black roof rails, Emergency Stop Signal (ESS), privacy glass, chrome exterior and interior highlights as standard equipment on all models, and a new Lightning Blue paint joins the range of ASX exterior colour options.
Meanwhile, 2.0-litre petrol ASX models with CVT automatic transmission benefit from performance upgrades resulting in more responsive acceleration feel from a standing start and at mid-range speeds, and fuel economy improvements of around 4 per cent, giving ASX CVT models an official rating of 7.4-litres/100km.
