Mitsubishi Mirage: A Great Bargain for Value-Conscious Consumers | CommunityCars.com Blog

For consumers seeking a great bargain on a small commuter car, the Mitsubishi Mirage is a great value purchase, thanks to its low price and lengthy warranty. Bloomington residents looking for a great deal on a new car will want to check out the 2018 Mitsubishi Mirage.

Performance

The new Mirage is powered by a three-cylinder engine that generates 78 horsepower. While the Mirage will never be confused with a sports car, the engine provides acceleration adequate for the daily commuting needs of most drivers.

Where the Mirage truly shines, with regard to performance, is in its fuel economy. The new Mirage has one of the highest fuel economy ratings for a traditional gas engine subcompact. The Mirage gets 35 to 37 mpg in the city and 42 to 43 mpg on the highway. A lot of the Mirage’s fuel economy is thanks to its continuously variable transmission, which more efficiently delivers power.

Interior

The new Mirage comes in both a sedan and hatchback model. The interior of the new Mirage is no-frills, but it does have some modern flourishes that consumers will like. The vehicle comes standard with a touchscreen infotainment display, a USB port, and Bluetooth.

The infotainment system is intuitive and controls are well-placed. If you buy the upper trim levels, you can get more tech features such as Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, and a Rockford Fosgate Sound system.

The Mirage has great cargo space for a small car. The new hatchback Mirage offers a generous 17.2 cubic feet of trunk space. The rear seats of the vehicle fold down to offer up to 47 cubic feet of cargo room for larger loads. The sedan version of the vehicle offers 12.3 cubic feet of trunk space and a rear seat pass-through for larger items.

Safety

The Mirage gets good safety scores from government crash test evaluators and offers some great safety features. The vehicle comes standard with a rearview camera and hill-start assist, which helps prevent the vehicle from rolling backward on hills.

Price

The price for an entry-level Mitsubishi Mirage ES is $13,395. Consumers can get a fully loaded Mitsubishi Mirage Hatchback GT for $16,595. This is significantly less expensive than competing models.

Mitsubishi adds further value to the new Mirage by covering it with a five-year, 60,000-mile warranty. The powertrain is covered by a 10-year, 100,000-mile warranty. These warranties are very generous, and few other manufacturers offer comparable quality guarantees.

For consumers who need a no-frills small car that gets excellent gas mileage, the 2018 Mitsubishi Mirage is an excellent choice. A good car dealership can help make the purchase even more affordable, with bargains on the upper trim levels of the vehicle.
