2020 Mitsubishi Mirage G4 Sedan pricing
in Ashburn, VA2020 Mitsubishi Mirage G4 Review
A fraternal twin to the Mirage hatchback, the 2020 Mitsubishi Mirage G4 is a subcompact sedan with a small footprint and a small price tag. As one of the least expensive cars you can buy new today, the Mirage is bare-bones transportation at a competitive price. It also gets a long warranty and great gas mileage with an EPA-estimated 37 mpg combined.
Unfortunately, the downsides are significant. Under the hood, there's a tiny 1.2-liter three-cylinder engine that feels anemic at any speed. Sheer straight-line performance shouldn't be a top priority with a subcompact sedan, but when it takes nearly 13 seconds to reach 60 mph, it's time for concern. Whether you're at a standstill or on the highway, the Mirage G4 is loud and unpleasant, with poor seat comfort and a short list of available features.
Before you let the low price draw you in, we'd recommend taking a look at more well-rounded rivals such as the Honda Fit, Kia Rio and Toyota Yaris.
Notably, we picked the 2020 Mitsubishi Mirage G4 as one of Edmunds' Best Gas Mileage Cars for 2020.
Which Mirage G4 does Edmunds recommend?
2020 Mitsubishi Mirage G4 models
The 2020 Mitsubishi Mirage G4 is a subcompact sedan offered in three trim levels: ES, LE and SE. Every Mirage G4 has a 1.2-liter three-cylinder engine that produces 78 horsepower and 74 lb-ft of torque. The ES gives you the choice between a five-speed manual transmission or a continuously variable automatic transmission (CVT), while the LE and SE get the CVT automatic.
Standard features for the base Mirage ES trim include 14-inch steel wheels, cruise control, keyless entry, automatic climate control, a height-adjustable driver's seat, a tilt-only steering wheel, a rearview camera, a 7-inch touchscreen display, Bluetooth, and a four-speaker sound system with a USB port.
The LE adds 15-inch alloy wheels, heated front seats, a leather-wrapped steering wheel, and a slightly smaller 6.5-inch touchscreen equipped with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto smartphone integration. The Mirage SE includes all of the above, along with proximity entry and foglights.

All mini hatchback feels unsafe on the road, like the mini EVO. But this Mitsubishi Mirage G4 have a great safty feature just other mini vehicle. Great on fuel and room at the back to carry groceries and daily stuff. Great for travel to school, work or short trips.
No pick and and go felt unsafe on 5 to 6 lane highways lightweight small and compact good on gas its good for local driving. Noisy engine as if it weren't going to go esp. up hills. Traded it in asap for a SUV Buick for the price this should be sold for 8 grand.
This car is made fuel efficiency. it's not a muscle car. I know someone that has a g4 it's a great car we got hills it does very good going up them. I would recommend the g4 too anybody. I would never buy an a American car

Mitsubishi Mirage G4 vs. the competition
Mitsubishi Mirage G4 vs. Kia Rio
The Mitsubishi Mirage G4 fitted with the manual transmission undercuts the Kia Rio sedan ever so slightly on price. Put them on an even playing field, however, and equip the Mirage G4 with a CVT automatic, and the Rio wins out. Not only is the Rio less expensive with the available CVT automatic, but it's better to drive and has more power and a nicer interior.
Mitsubishi Mirage G4 vs. Toyota Yaris
With impressive handling and lots of standard features, the Toyota Yaris is one of our favorite cars in the subcompact class. The interior is legitimately upscale for this segment too. The Mirage G4 offers better fuel economy and a slightly lower price, but the Yaris easily wins this competition.
Mitsubishi Mirage G4 vs. Hyundai Accent
Much like the Mirage G4, the Hyundai Accent offers four-wheel transportation at a low price. The Accent nearly matches the Mirage G4 for fuel economy while offering a higher-quality interior, more on-road comfort and more power. If you want an inexpensive daily driver, go with the Accent.

Should I lease or buy a 2020 Mitsubishi Mirage G4 Sedan?
Is it better to lease or buy a car? Ask most people and they'll probably tell you that car buying is the way to go. And from a financial perspective, it's true, provided you're willing to make higher monthly payments, pay off the loan in full and keep the car for a few years. Leasing, on the other hand, can be a less expensive option on a month-to-month basis. It's also good if you're someone who likes to drive a new car every three years or so.
