PROs -The interior room is surprising for a car this size passenger seats and cargo. -Fuel economy best for a subcompact car matches hybrids. -Affordable the price for this car is low and even lower with incentives. -Cheap to maintain very little oil is needed. -Small tire size which makes tire selection affordable. -Warranty is amazing for its class. -Good amount of options to choose from to fit anyone's needs. -CVT transmission is smooth and efficient. NEGATIVES -The 3 cyl engine struggles a lot passing other cars or when its on any kind of grade. -Noises you can hear everything the road and the wind. -There is nothing super fancy about this car it is kind of bland as far as styling is concerned. -The attention to detail and materials are no where present cheap plastic lots of gaps. -Options can pit this car into not worth it waters very easily get the bare minimum this is not a car to splurge on. FINAL IMPRESSIONS I'm going to drive it to see how long it last 3,000 miles so far not a single issue sometimes there's beauty in simplicity.

We just purchased this car for my niece. Her first car she will be taking to college. I have had friends that owned Mitsubishi cars that were very reliable but, we were really concerned after reading the reviews on the mirage from professional reviewers. Based on consumer reviews we decided to go and test drive the Mirage and are very happy that we did. We ended up buying this brand new car for my niece for $11,933 and we could not be happier. I will update review later on reliability but all of the other issues that the professional reviewers pointed out are pretty much non existent or inconsequential when looking for a first time vehicle for a teenager. Do yourself a favor and give it a chance by test driving one and make up your own mind. If its not what your looking for don't buy it.

My favorite car!

I am a 6’1”, 200 lb, 55 year old man with history of back surgery. My last car was a 2004 Mercury Grand Marquis, which was very heavy and had a very comfortable ride. So with all the reviews from “experts” that complain about road noise and weak engine, you would expect me to hate this car. BUT I DON’T I am very comfortable in my Mirage Hatchback. There is ample head room and leg space. I live in a city that requires merging onto a highway with 65 mph zone, and I have no problem getting up to 65 before merging. The interior does not seem cheap to me. My daughter has a 2017 Mirage and her interior looks great with no cracking or damage to the seats, dash or controls. I commute 12 miles to work 5 days a week. So excited to have this car.

This car is mainly for the conservatives who likes fuel saving vehicle with modern traditional style feel. In general, this car is meant to be that. Practical, reliable, and excellent mpg. In my opinion, the way I feel about this car, is really fun! Engine noise is like music to my ears, acceleration is poor but having to rev up the vehicle in most driving situation is exciting. The car is like a big bubble inside so the view is large to see out. I am also a self mechanic and doing this work on a small car with so much space inside the engine is a walk in the park in the future repairs and I can go on and on. Now a days people want speed and never minds the mpg. And with so much technology in most selling modern cars these days, having to worry about something breaking down would not be fun for the wallet or purse. Keep it simple, keep it real! 😎 Update* My car had 12600 miles and it has been doing what it needs to do taking me to work and errands etc. No issues at all And easy to maintain.
