Besides four-wheel drive, the 4WD variant (above) adds on hill start assist, traction control function, active stability control, a panoramic roof, shift paddles, a push start button, security window tint, plus chrome surrounding the front grille and fog lamp housings.
The 2WD is priced at RM114,270 (CBU car was RM139,982) while the 4WD is priced at RM128,880, on-the-road excluding insurance. Black Mica, Titanium Grey, Cool Silver and Solid White body colours are available. Offered is a five-year warranty with unlimited mileage.

AI-generated Summary ✨
Comments on the Mitsubishi ASX CKD bookings are generally positive about its value and features, highlighting its competitive price of RM114k-RM129k and good specifications such as leather seats, navigation, and safety features including airbags and knee airbags. Some critics wish for more airbags and safety controls like stability and traction control on the 2WD model, expressing concerns over safety and safety awareness in Malaysia. There are discussions about the car's design elements, such as the front grille, and questions about component choices like plastic fenders. Many commenters appreciate Mitsubishi’s efforts to localize production and promote affordability, though a few mention off-topic topics like pricing in Langkawi or other brands. Overall, the sentiment is quite favorable, viewing the CKD ASX as a solid and cost-effective choice with some room for safety improvements.
