Great little car!

I will say I haven’t owned the car long yet, but Mitsubishi will give you 3-4k off the MSRP just for looking at it, I got mine brand new out the door with oil changes for life included from the dealer for 11k. The handling is often cited as poor because of the body roll, but I’ve pushed it pretty hard and never worried about losing traction, the handling is actually surprisingly predictable in spite of the soft suspension, I actually consider the soft suspension a pro because bumps don’t feel like an assault on your spine like they do in many subcompact cars. The car is reasonably tall and the seating position is pretty high, it’s easy to get in and out of compared to most small cars I’ve driven. The 1.2 isn’t fast by any means, but with the 5 speed I’ve had no problem keeping up with traffic, the engine is surprisingly peppy and responsive, and I’ve had no issue with large hills. You can get 2nd gear up to 50 without issue, but I’ve yet to find a hill I can’t climb in 4th gear traffic allowing. The gas milage is phenomenal, I’ve averaged over 55mpg on freeway trips when I take it easy. The back seat is large enough that I haven’t had any complaints and even going to this from my 91 Cadillac Deville, I don’t feel cramped. This car wouldn’t win any competitions in any single category, but overall, it’s probably the best bang for your buck you’ll find!

Has done me good for now ..

I'm a young driver, 21 to be exact and live in GA. I do a lot of driving. I've had the vehicle for 11 months and I'm at 21k. Brakes are amazing but they are pretty rough if you have to do a quick stop. Gas mileage is gorgeous. Transmission maybe starting to do its dirty work. This is an automatic and when im on a hill it does the slight roll back then go .. literally that just started but I've also had one other person driving my car and they are a pretty rough driver. I really do not fill this car would do me any justice in accident. Everything is paneled and plastic. I took a dent out of my car with my bare hands. Just treat the car like its a Benz or BMW and it should last you.

If you like high fuel economy, reliability and a super easy car to drive, this is it. 50 M.P.G. average. It is affordable, fun in its own way and even relaxing. Everything is light. It’s almost as if Japan built a bigger Kei car and sold it in the U.S. It’s as if anime came alive and wound up as this type of car. It has its own character. It’s actually nicer than you would think. Even this base model is so cool. Power everything, A/C, back-up camera, hill-start assist, touch-screen media. It even has Easter eggs (those interesting details). The back seat on the passenger side has a hook to hold a grocery bag or something not too heavy. The driver’s armrest flips back and makes another cup holder for the rear passengers. It has 7 cup holders. I love hill start assist (no more rolling backwards when letting out the clutch). The power is actually good. I’m shocked. The fuel economy is better than a Ford Fiesta SFE 1.0 w/manual I owned. In many ways the Mirage G4 is better than that car because everything is so light and easy to use. It’s super comfortable. You don’t fight anything with this car, it just works. No turbo, no excess.

It's cute but it could be better...

This is a very cute little car but is kind of disappointing. Other cars in this class get better gas mileage and better acceleration. This car takes a while to accelerate but once it gets going, it does well especially on the highway. The motor is louder than it should be and I've only had the car for 1 month and the brakes squeak sometimes when I stop. This should not happen on a brand new 2020 vehicle. The gas mileage is okay but again could be better. I'm disappointed in Mitsubishi, this little car could be more like a Fit or a Versa. I'm rebuilding my credit, so I'll keep this car for at least a year but I'll probably wind up trading it in.
