2018 Mitsubishi Mirage Overview, Reviews, Ratings & Specs

The mitsubishi Mirage. I have one of these cars. Sure. It's only 78 horsepower sure. I still get on the highway but I let other cars pass by me. I don't try to keep up. It just takes your longer to get somewhere. That's all, but it's an awesome car. Nonetheless, if you want to have a good reliable car that doesn't take a lot of gas regardless of what people say about it, not being that great a car. It has a lot of zip to it and power and easy to park and handle. It's a great. Car. This car is much reliable.And fun to drive

It isn't really bad, but it also isn't really good. It's very small and light, which makes for an uncomfortable ride. You can feel every bump in the road. But because of it's size and weight the gas mileage is amazing.

I purchased this thing in full with 55,000 miles on it expecting it to be basic and something that could hold me over for a few years until I could build up to something better. Boy was I surprised. This tiny box let's pass EVERYONE. Love the fact that I'm spending maaybe $40 on gas a month, and it has an impressive amount of power for it's size and mileage! I've seen some weird reviews regarding comfort, but even being a taller guy I push my seat forward to feel more comfortable. Big enough still to fit all my friends and all of our xxxx. The speakers are phenomenal! Since I've had it for a while at an amount of miles not many seem to have, I'd like to give some tips on this vehicle! Yes, the AC is kinda crap, but the window is always an option, but the heat works very well. It's a small vehicle, so it doesn't put a whole lot of wear and tear on the brakes and tires, but the unique size of the tires can make them harder (aka more costly)to find in the event of a flat or a change. But the donut for this thing is xxxx near the size of the regular tires. In the winter, it, like every car, can have some problems with the battery, I ended up having to change it out at around 56,000, but the winter before it had died and a recharge made it last another year! With proper maintenance and good practices, this car seems like it can last forever. I know I'm going to be devastated to see it go when I eventually have to trade her in for a family car, but this reliable baby has treated me right so far.

I love my car would buy another new one. I think my car is very suitable for a small car. I Love the gas milage .

Fantastic gas mileage.. effortless parking and great maneuverability..fun to drive..industry leading warranty. More interior space than you'd expect and the ride is decently comfortable. Reliable and low maintenance costs.

So my wife went to get a tire for her 1993 jeep Cherokee. As she waited she walked to the dealership next door. Just for sh*ts and giggles she checked to see if she would be approved. Low and behold she was. We had been looking for a vehicle that's good on gas and can park in small spaces (we live in the city, parking is tough,or was tough). She drove home on a test drive and picked me up. Instantly fell in love with it.Its a 2018 and has a Backup camera, Bluetooth, touchscreen everything,and we average around 40 plus mpg. She financed the car with ZERO down ( she gave them the 1993 jeep and they credited her 1,500$ 🤣). She had 32,000 miles on it and the price and payments were so unbelievably low,I thought it was going to blow up our first month. Purchase was made February 3,2022. Just in time for gas to rise insanely. I'm 6 foot tall,and she's 5 foot 8 and we both fit perfectly. Plenty of space,great stereo,comfy seats, and incredible gas mileage. The car is absolutely amazing. No more V8s for us. 3 cylinder is where it's at. And I'm glad it doesn't fly because my wife has a lead foot lol. I would recommend this car to anyone looking for a car that's great on gas,comfy,loaded,and can park almost anywhere.

It works great. It gets great gas milage and takes very little to fill it up. I like that my phone can sync to it.

It is well designed, handles well and has had no issues in the 250 ,iles we have put on it so far. We bought it with only 6600 miles on it, so it is in great shape. It handles well and the gas milage is incredible!

I purchased this car to see if I’d be approved. I was approved. I loved the idea of my second manual transmission vehicle in my, then, 33 years of age. This vehicle came with power windows with one touch driver’s window up and down. Power door locks without auto locking upon driving at a certain speed. I like that the doors don’t auto-lock once you’ve entered the vehicle. Auto lock can be dangerous when you’ve exited the car and think your keys are with you but they are in the car. This vehicle does auto lock if you unlock the doors with the key fob or in the key hole but do not open a door within a set time frame. That’s handy for my scatter brain moments. I often achieve 42-45 miles per gallon on a smaller than 9 gallon tank. This is an achievement because I love testing this car’s ability to meet my driving style while producing high MPGs. It may have less than 80 horsepower and less than 80 pounds feet of torque, but I don’t think it knows that! 😁 This 2018 mirage ES is named Storm ⛈ Cloud. He is Mercury Gray with black cloth seats and carpeting (including the carpeted floor mats). There are bottle holders and storage bins on the front doors. There are two average sized cup holders under the dash, in front of the gear shifter. There is one larger cup holder between the front seats with access from the back row. There is a cargo light. There is a molded, designed cargo cover with one rope attachment for a circular hook on the driver’s side on the cargo door. There is a temporary spare tire and tire changing kit under the cargo floor. The cargo floor is low. I could fit a 24 inch LCD TV inside the box back there with other groceries and still have room. Between the back seat (seats upright) and the cargo area, I’ve fit one full Sam’s Club grocery cart full of items in my car with room to spare. Sometimes I’ve used the cargo cover to hold items on top and other times I’ve moved it for more height. Legroom at 41.7” is good on paper. I would like 2-3 inches of more leg space for my longer legs and long distance comfort in the driver’s seat. I do not have cruise control. I only miss cruise control sometimes on 2+ hour drives. Nine of my eleven vehicles have had cruise control. I thought I needed it. I have been fine without it. I even purchased a second vehicle (vehicle
