Good for four adults and packed city streets

The 2023 Mitsubishi Mirage G4 sits atop a tiny footprint, making it a great sedan for zipping through the city cause it’s easy to maneuver in traffic and park in tight spaces. However, small cars like this tend to have small interiors that can only comfortably accommodate two adults and two kids. The 2023 Mirage G4 does things differently, offering 41.7 inches of front legroom and a surprisingly adult-friendly 37.3 inches of rear legroom. So, all your passengers ride comfortably, whether you’re just running errands with the kiddos or carpooling with three other coworkers.

5 reasons to buy the 2023 Mitsubishi Mirage G4

1. Great commuter car 

The 1.2L three-cylinder engine under the 2023 Mitsubishi Mirage G4 produces a modest 78 hp and 74 lb-ft of torque. This power slips through a standard five-speed manual transmission or optional CVT and out to the front wheels. Though raw power isn’t the Mirage G4’s focus, it will please you (and your wallet) with its impressive EPA-estimated fuel-economy ratings of 35 mpg city, 41 mpg highway, and 37 mpg combined with the CVT. Sticking with the base manual transmission drops these ratings to 33 mpg city, 40 mpg highway, and 35 mpg combined.

 

2. A city-ready sedan 

When you drive a larger sedan or SUV through the crowded city streets, their larger footprints can make navigating traffic or pulling into tight parking spaces stressful. The 2023 Mirage G4 resolves this struggle thanks to its subcompact. You can easily slip the Mirage G4 through traffic and fit it into almost any parking space. This makes your daily commute that much easier day in and day out.  

3. Four adults ride comfortably 

The Miage G4’s small body makes city traffic and parking a breeze, but does it compromise on the interior room to make this happen? Nope! The 2023 Mirage G4’s subcompact body houses a surprisingly spacious cabin that comfortably accommodates four adults. Up front, you’ll enjoy 41.7 inches of legroom, making it a useful space for people of all sizes. The rear seat passengers get a healthy 37.3 inches of legroom, making these seats comfortable for kids and adults. So, whether you’re taking the kids to soccer practice or running to lunch with colleagues, everyone is comfortable in the 2023 Mirage G4. 

4. Stylish Black Edition 

Who says a subcompact car can’t be stylish? The 2023 Mitsubishi Mirage G4 Black Edition satisfies your craving for something unique. This package dresses up the exterior of the Mirage G4 with 15-inch black alloy wheels, black mirror caps, a red-accented front grille, and a black spoiler. Inside, you’ll be pleased with its red-accented seats and door trim and a blacked-out center console and vents. It also gains automatic headlights and rain-sensing windshield wipers.  

5. Good standard features 

Though it’s a small, entry-level sedan, the 2023 Mitsubishi Mirage G4 has a fair amount of in-demand standard features you’ll love. Please your technical side with its standard seven-inch touchscreen infotainment system, Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto, Bluetooth® connectivity, and automatic emergency braking with pedestrian detection. If you need more features, the Mirage G4’s higher trims are better equipped with goodies like LED headlights, lane-departure warning, heated front seats, keyless ignition, a leather-wrapped steering wheel, and much more.
