Unload and load with heaps of cargo space that’s accessible with just a touch of the tailgate button when you have your Smart Key* in your bag or pocket. The wide tailgate provides easy entry for bulky items and the low floor makes it easy to move heavy cargo in and out. Inside there is generous legroom with space for five adults and 60/40 split fold rear seats for added flexibility.

Surround yourself with sound, tech and comfort in so many ways. With ASX’s leather steering wheel with audio, phone and cruise control switches, and with Bluetooth and USB connectivity you can access your tunes through the audio system from your smart phone, iPod, MP3 player or USB stick.

XLS models offer the luxurious comfort of heated front seats and leather seat facings.

Glide into that tight city car park. Back up with confidence. ASX’s reverse camera view automatically appears on your dash screen as soon as you shift into reverse and reverse sensors warn you if you’re getting too close to objects behind you.

On slippery or rugged surfaces you want utmost control. ASX’s Active Traction Control (ATC) automatically controls the engine’s output so driving wheels are prevented from spinning. Sensing the loss of traction, ATC applies braking force to that particular wheel and sends extra power and torque to other wheels with traction. Active Stability Control (ASC) helps you keep your line through corners when under-steering or over-steering.

With a load in the back, it’s harder to stop suddenly in a short distance. In your ASX, Electronic Brakeforce Distribution (EBD) works hand-in-hand with ASX’s ABS computer to assess load and distribute braking force between the front and rear wheels, helping to stop you faster.

Beat the rain with automatic rain sensors* that activate your wipers at just the right time and speed. Dusk sensing headlamps* also automatically illuminate in fading light or when travelling through a tunnel.
