Tokyo – Mitsubishi Motors Corporation (MMC) showcased its Russian-spec ASX compact crossover at the Moscow International Automobile Salon 2010 held at Crocus Expo in Moscow, Russia from Wednesday August 25 (open to the general public from Thursday August 26). A total of 12 vehicles were displayed, including MMC’s core SUV lineup; Outlander, Pajero, and Pajero Sport.

The Russian-spec ASX, equipped with a choice of MIVEC*1 engines*2 mated to either a 5-speed manual transmission or 6-speed sport-mode CVT, provides superior fuel efficiency and low emissions in a compact package that can seat five. Sales of the ASX in Russia commenced this July.

During a press briefing, MMC President Osamu Masuko noted “Since the ASX was first launched this February in Japan, then in Europe and China, I am pleased to say that we are receiving such high praise for the vehicle that demand currently exceeds production in Japan. We plan to expand our SUV lineup in Russia with the new ASX in addition to commencing full-fledged SKD*3 production of the Outlander, the core of our SUV lineup, at a new assembly plant in Kaluga next month. We hope to meet the needs and expectations of our customers in Russia, one of our most important markets.”
