Comparison: height Mitsubishi ASX vs. competitors 2025

Gazing over the crowded mosaic of crossovers clamouring for supremacy in the car park, one may find that size does indeed matter, especially when it comes to the loftiness of one's vehicular steed. Enter the Mitsubishi ASX, a compact SUV that rises above the lacklustre tarmac like a well-tempered monolith ready to dash through urban jungles and rugged outback alike. But is its height a towering achievement or a meager offering in the big scale of things? Let's delve into the ASX's lofty credentials and see where it stands, quite literally, in the annals of automotive vertical achievements.

Mitsubishi ASX - How has the height changed over the generations?

Since its inception, the ASX, also known as the Outlander Sport in some realms, has had its share of facelifts and touch-ups. The first generation (2010-2012) and its subsequent facelift (2012-2016) stood proudly at 1615 mm tall - sufficiently elevated to give a clear vantage point from the driver's seat, yet not so much as to play hopscotch with underpasses. But wait, the tides of change washed over it in 2016 and suddenly, it swelled slightly to 1640 mm, where it bravely stayed until 2019. Fast forward to the present, and the 2023-now model seems to have shrunk back down to a diminutive 1576 mm, as if bowing its roof in reverence to the low-lying clouds.

The height compared to other Mitsubishi models

Where does the ASX sit in the veritable constellation of Mitsubishi's offerings, you wonder? The brand's Stellar cast includes cosmic bodies like the Mitsubishi Colt (1439 mm), which is more ground-hugging caterpillar than butterfly, and the Space Star (1505 mm), floating just above with a smidge more room to wear a top hat. Then there's the ASX itself, middleweight in height and mighty proud of it. But the Eclipse Cross (1685 mm) looms over the ASX, taller, like an elder sibling forever forcing the ASX to crane its neck.

How does the height of the Mitsubishi ASX compare to it's nearest competitors?

But how does our revered ASX fare in the grand coliseum against the darlings of other manufacturers? Let's pit our hero against its citrus-flavoured counterpart, the Renault Scénic (1729 mm), a veritable giant amidst hatchbacks turned crossovers. Compared to the Toyota Yaris Cross (1595 mm), the ASX plays big brother, but then steps into the shadow of the Suzuki Across (1690 mm) and feels somewhat vertically challenged. Peer across the schoolyard and you'll find the svelte CUPRA Formentor (1511 mm) ducking the high jump bar with plenty of room to spare, while the Renault Arkana (1571 mm) slinks by, almost eye-to-eye with our ASX. But let's not forget others in this high-stakes game of centimeters – like the Alfa Romeo Tonale (1601 mm) and the Lexus UX (1540 mm), each with their own date with measuring tape destiny.
