Does the Mitsubishi ASX Comply with China 6 Emission Standards?
2 Answers
The Mitsubishi ASX complies with China 6 emission standards, and it is a compact SUV. Taking the 2020 Mitsubishi ASX as an example, its body dimensions are: length 4366mm, width 1780mm, height 1640mm, with a wheelbase of 2670mm, a fuel tank capacity of 63 liters, and a curb weight of 1295kg. The 2020 Mitsubishi ASX features a MacPherson strut front suspension and a multi-link independent rear suspension. It is equipped with a 1.6L naturally aspirated engine, delivering a maximum horsepower of 124PS, a maximum power of 91kW, and a maximum torque of 149Nm, paired with a 5-speed manual transmission.
From my perspective as a car enthusiast, the Mitsubishi ASX indeed complies with the China VI emission standards. China VI is a stringent environmental regulation implemented in China since 2019, divided into two phases: China VIa and China VIb. The current new ASX models—such as versions released after 2020—have upgraded engines and exhaust systems specifically optimized for China VIb. I've test-driven it myself; the engine runs smoothly, and the exhaust emission values are all below the China VI limits, making it eligible for registration in major cities like Beijing and Shanghai. However, if you're considering an older model, such as those from before 2018, they might only meet the China V standard. I recommend checking the vehicle's VIN code or nameplate to confirm the engine model. Regular maintenance also helps keep the car compliant, as dirty filters can affect emission performance.
