mitsubishi mirage sedan displayed proudly in toronto

Not content to let Nissan steal their A-segment thunder, Mitsubishi brought out their Mirage G4 sedan, which was locked and on a turntable, next to an Evo and a Mirage hatchback. In person, the G4 looks just as pinched and stretched as photos make it out to be.

First of all, Mitsubishi has an ASSEMBLY PLANT HERE. They are not going anywhere for the near future. It would cost them way too much to shut down here, unlike Suzuki. Secondly, the Mirage hatch is now Mitsu's best selling car line. Laugh all you want, but for $13k, it has a lot of kit standard (ok, I read too many British mags) and gets great mileage. Read the owner reviews. So why not add a sedan version too? Some people just don't want to buy a USED "whatever" car. They like the idea of getting something brand new, however modest it might be.

  Agreed. Mitsubishi is employing a lot of AMERICANS at their factory in Illinois. Mitsubishi/Kia/Hyundai/Nissan are good for the car buying public, because they offer decent cars at lower prices. The average person doesn't need a $30,000 car to drive back and forth to work and there definitely is peace of mind with getting a new car instead of used (or pre-owned) as they now like to call it in the car dealer PC world to not offend the buyers.

  Mitsubishis are usually highly discounted. You could drive away from a dealership with a 2014 Outlander GT with every option available and all-wheel-drive for 30 grand. THAT'S good value. I'm a huge supporter of Mitsubishi and know they'll have a good chance here in the US, no matter what others think.

  @turboprius Yes, but will the Mirage sedan be available here in the US in the same colors as the hatch: infra-red, Kiwi green and plasma purple? I love that plasma purple, but only in a sedan with a lockable trunk for my golf clubs. It would be the hit of the country club parking lot.

  @Lorenzo If Sharpay Evans were poor, she'd probably have a Plasma Purple Mirage sedan. But spoiled teenage girls who go to country clubs have Shelby GT500s that they get painted Plasma Purple. However, the sedan looks to appeal as A-B transportation rather than "Fabulous." They've gotta work things out, right? It's really funny I thought of that, since Ryan Evans is my profile picture right now. And Sharpay had a Mustang in the movie. Fine, I'll shut up. A teenage boy isn't supposed to know this much about HSM 2.

Oversized body rolling on absurdly small wheels. A typically Indian design where a large body has been mated to an existing platform to hit the combined targets of interior cabin space and cost reduction.

KOKing Actually a place called Sector111 in Temecula, CA was importing them for sale in the US starting around 2012. A friend had a shop right next door, and I recall seeing the very first one the owner imported for himself, and would bring it out to promote at various local events. Also shows this thing's been around for a while.
