Overview

We at Edmunds understand the appeal of a new car with an affordable price, good fuel economy, free maintenance visits, and a long warranty promising years of reliability. The 2024 Mitsubishi Mirage G4 sedan would seem to be a good choice for people looking for these qualities in their next car. Along with the related Mirage hatchback, the G4 is one of just a few inexpensive small cars still on the market. Unfortunately, there's a big list of downsides you'll have to deal with when buying a Mirage as well.

Cost to Drive^{Cost to drive estimates for the 2024 Mitsubishi Mirage G4 ES 4dr Sedan (1.2L 3cyl CVT) and comparison vehicles are based on 15,000 miles per year (with a mix of 55% city and 45% highway driving) and energy estimates of $3.50 per gallon for regular unleaded in Ohio.}

Edmunds spotlight: The pros and cons of the Mitsubishi Mirage

Priced less than most other cars on the market, the 2024 Mirage G4 is not without its merits. In addition to the low price, you get a long powertrain warranty, a generous roadside assistance plan, and several complimentary service visits. However, the Mirage's underlying engineering dates back a decade, it is dreadfully slow and unrefined, and the few crash test results available for the car aren't necessarily reassuring. Overall, you don't pay much to get a Mirage, but you don't get much in return either.

Competitors to consider

Bafflingly, the Mirage G4 has outlasted most of its competition in the small car class. Only the Nissan Versa remains, and it is a better choice if not a superior value. But if you can stretch your budget a little bit, you can consider a small crossover like the Chevrolet Trax, Hyundai Venue, Kia Soul or Nissan Kicks. Buying a used small sedan of an older year is another viable and likely more satisfying alternative.

Which Mirage G4 does Edmunds recommend?

Chances are, you're considering a Mirage G4 because it fits a tight budget. With that in mind, the base ES trim is the one to get. And don't bother with the pointless and often expensive option packages and accessories. After all, if you can afford those, you can also afford to get a better car.

Mitsubishi Mirage G4 models

The 2024 Mitsubishi Mirage G4 is a small sedan available in ES, LE, Black Edition and SE trim levels. Each one has a 1.2-liter three-cylinder engine (76 horsepower, 74 lb-ft of torque), a continuously variable automatic transmission (CVT) and front-wheel drive. Standard equipment highlights are listed below.

ES
The most affordable Mirage G4 comes with the basics, including:

14-inch steel wheels with plastic wheel covers
LED taillights
Height-adjustable driver's seat
Power windows
Remote keyless entry
Automatic climate control
Cruise control
7-inch infotainment touchscreen display
Apple CarPlay and Android Auto smartphone integration
One USB port

LE
Upgrade to the Mirage G4 LE for these irresistible features:

15-inch alloy wheels
Automatic headlights
Foglights
Rain-sensing windshield wipers

15-inch black alloy wheels
Black spoiler and mirror caps
Black Edition badge
Red exterior accents
Red interior trim
Seats with special cloth upholstery and red stitching
Leather-wrapped steering wheel and shift knob

SE
For hints of luxury, try the SE, which adds:

Proximity keyless entry and push-button start
Upgraded interior trim and materials

Lane departure warning (alerts you if the vehicle begins to drift out of its lane)

Mitsubishi offers numerous options, packages and accessories for the Mirage G4, but we recommend avoiding most of them. The ones that might be worthwhile include:

Welcome package

Carpeted floor mats
A portfolio for the owner's manual
A paint touch-up pen

Park Assist Sensors package

Front and rear parking sensors

Console Illumination package

Center console illumination

2019 Mitsubishi Mirage G4 SE 4dr Sedan (1.2L 3cyl CVT)

another update: Lots of additional miles, no problems & consistent 42+ MPG in a mix of driving situations. Dollar for dollar, this is probably the best automotive value I have ever owned. Nothing exciting about this car unless squeezing every mile possible out of each penny in a surprisingly comfortable, utterly reliable little sedan excites you. We remain Very pleased with our G4. … UPDATE in June 2020: car continues to exceed expectations. After a job change, I needed a commuter for a 52 mile round trip to work. The G4 has been great. No repairs, low maintenance costs for the first 30K + miles & fuel economy over 40 mpg in a barrier mix of urban, suburban stop and go & highway driving. While the car is a bit loud when driving at highway speeds and when accelerating, this issue is offset by comfortable seating and a great ride quality for an economy car. We are very happy with our Mirage G4 SE. We wanted a car to run errands locally and (very rarely) to take an 80 mile round trip to visit relatives. We also needed the car to fit a tight parking situation & have a trunk that can hold a folding wheelchair. After looking at the Versa (dreadful unless optioned heavily) & the Yaris sedan (pretty good), we drove the G4 SE. The car rides better than the competition on typical suburban streets and has very comfortable seats. The SE trim includes upgraded seats and fabric as well as a driver’s armrest. The exterior is simple, but attractive. The pearl whit paint on ours is quite nice. The upgraded alloy wheels on the SE also look good and come with larger tires than the ES trim level. Acceleration is slow unless you really stand on the gas pedal. The engine drones during moderate acceleration but takes on a surprising growl above about 4100 RPM. I have no trouble getting up to speed on short on ramps, but highway passing requires a bit of advanced planning because 50 to 70 MPH acceleration is pretty slow. Fuel consumption is awesome: I average 41 MPG in mixed driving and have seen 50+ MPG during extended highway driving. Visibility is great, the headlights are strong and the wipers are effective and provide coverage of nearly the whole windshield. Snow traction is very good and during the brutal cold of last winter, the car had no trouble starting at -22 f and the heat was adequate even at arctic temps. The A/C is great too. I like the car much more after one year than I did when I first bought it. No problems/repairs for the first year and maintenance is cheap. Overall, great value for the money—we couldn’t be more pleased.

2018 Mitsubishi Mirage G4 SE 4dr Sedan (1.2L 3cyl CVT)

After owning 4 of these, 2 hatchbacks and 2 sedans, One was a 5 speed manual, rest were the CVT. The only warranty claim on any of them was a cracked armrest on the door. The manual is more fun to drive and get more MPG. Only problem is if you want a loaded car you are forced to get the CVT. Reviewers online hate the car ( Consumer Reports, Kelley Blue Book, Edmunds, ect) but owner give …

I drive roughly 100 miles a day. I needed and wanted a car that got good Gas Mileage. I was not looking at a mirage G4 at first, I thought I wanted a Hatchback or small SUV, I was looking at the outlander, then i tried the Mirage HAtchback, it was ok i was impressed by the gas mileage numbers, but thought it was a bit small for what i needed, so then I was shown the Mirage G4, I looked …

This car sips gas!!!!

Yankeefan, 02/16/2019

2019 Mitsubishi Mirage G4 ES 4dr Sedan (1.2L 3cyl CVT)

39.7 miles per gallon I'm averaging. Plenty of room for all 4 of us and I'm a pretty large guy. Great cargo room. Excellent features. A highly underrated car. For this price and with the gas savings it's a no brainer imo.

We have a limited number of reviews for the 2024 Mitsubishi Mirage G4, so we've included reviews for other years of the Mirage G4 since its last redesign.
