Is The ASX or Outlander Best?
Question: Which is better, the Mitsubishi ASX or the Mitsubishi Outlander?
Answer: Although both are fairly similar vehicles, and are therefore both reliable, stylish and safe, this question is best answered by determining what you want to do with your Mitsubishi. If you’re an urban warrior who is going to stick to the road, with only an occasional trip on a dirt road, then the ASX is the vehicle for you. However, if you enjoy an active outdoor lifestyle and like to take your vehicle offroad, then the Outlander is your best bet.
