Gas saver

We got this as a commuter vehicle & it's a gas saver. Acceleration for the highway is a bit lacking but that's expected for a 3 cylinder. Tanks a but small too at 9.5 gallons, 12 or 13 would be better to allow less fill ups in a week.

Don’t Believe the Poor Reviews

2020 Mitsubishi Mirage ES 4dr Hatchback (1.2L 3cyl 5M)

I rated the car based on comparable cars. Firstly, when it comes to this car get the manual transmission or don’t bother. You need to be able to put the revs where you want them to get the most out of this engine. Most CVT transmissions are garbage anyway. Secondly, someone mentioned the car hydroplaned easy. The stock tires do great in rain and snow … when they have tread. They wear out incredibly fast for as expensive as they are. I had to change mine at 28,000 and prob should of changed them sooner. The ones I switched to don’t do as well in the rain but as long as I’m not speeding it’s not an issue. I’ve passed 4wd Jeeps in the snow (because people don’t know how to drive). As long as the snow isn’t 6 inches deep you’ll get where you’re going. The car is cheap, but I would buy it again in a heartbeat. It’s comfortable, has all the amenities I require, AMAZING gas mileage. I often am not easy on the gas pedal and still averaging 44mpg over the life of the car so far. All my complaints are super minor, for example, the car doesn’t easily go into gear when it’s cold out until it warms up, which is annoying. Also, I’ve twice cut my finger opening the glovebox because there’s some piece of metal that my fingers hit if I stick them way in there.

Mirage 2019

I purchased the Mirage 2019 in June 2022. The car was everything i was looking for...price...backup camera, Bluetooth..low mileage and the color. I needed something affordable and low mileage. I go to the lake a lot in the summer. My drive on the interstate is as comfortable as my last car...Mazda 3. She gets up to a comfortable 80 mph when i want it to... When i drive this car i don't feel like i'm driving a tiny car... I'm short anyway so it's perfect for me. I can honestly say.. i love this little car..one of the favorite cars I've purchased.

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.
