Mitsubishi Mirage is among the least expensive cars you can find in the country. For a traditional, non-hybrid model, its fuel economy is not bad either. So, not only do you get a versatile hatchback with the Mirage, but you also save money on your purchase and fuel costs. The Mirage lineup now includes the Black Edition trim along with ES, LE, and SE. Here are the key features of this hatchback:

Pricing
The Mirage is a perfect addition to the class of feature-rich yet affordable cars. With various trim levels, this car is a head-turner. The price point for the base trim ES starts at $16,125 and can go as high as $19,375 for SE buyers.

Updates
The Black edition of the Mitsubishi Mirage comes with 15-inch wheels, and buyers can get automatic windshield wipers and headlights with this model. Its unique feature is red trims surrounding the grille and red fabric trim fitted on door panel interiors. All these features are also optional customizations for the SE model. Another highlight that is a common sight in all Mirage trims is the departure lighting and a vanity mirror for the front seat passenger. 

Engine
The complete lineup is equipped with a 1.2-liter three-cylinder engine that delivers 78 horsepower.

Fuel economy
With the CVT models, you can expect the car to deliver 36 mpg within city limits and 43 mpg when driving on the highway. If you choose the manual transmission variant, your expected fuel economy stands at 33 mpg in the city and 41 mpg on the highway.

Comfort
The Mitsubishi Mirage does not go above and beyond with its interiors. So you can find abundant usage of hard plastic, and the overall design is simplistic. Where the front row is comfortable and roomy enough, the second-row seats might seem a little constricting. On the other hand, the car’s cargo space is generous, considering its compact body. You get 17 cubic feet of storage space with all the seats upright. Folding down the second-row seats gives you 47 cubic feet of cargo capacity, making the car ideal for long trips.

Infotainment
Bluetooth connectivity and standard infotainment features are common for all trim options of the Mitsubishi Mirage. This means you can make and answer hands-free phone calls. A 7-inch touchscreen makes up part of the infotainment center and comes with both Android Auto and Apple CarPlay integration for wireless connectivity. You also get a four-speaker audio system in the car.

Safety
Some standard safety features on the Mitsubishi Mirage include pedestrian detection, a rearview camera, forward collision warning, and automated emergency braking. Other optional features are front and rear parking sensors, automatic high-beam headlights, and a lane departure warning system. Higher trims come with these optional features, however, other high-tech safety features are yet to make their way into the Mirage lineup.

Warranty
If warranty coverage is an important consideration for you, Mitsubishi is one of the best options. The brand offers warranty coverage for 5 years or 60,000 miles under a limited warranty plan. Additionally, the powertrain warranty offers coverage extending up to 10 years or 100,000 miles. However, you may not be able to get complimentary maintenance services.
