2014 Mitsubishi Mirage - Full Specs

The 2014 Mirage 5-door sub-compact is the most fuel-efficient non-hybrid gasoline vehicle available in America. The small Mitsubishi can achieve up to 44 mpg US (5.4 liters / 100 km) on the highway and 40 mpg US (5.9 liters / 100 km) on combined cycle – manual gearbox.

Standard safety features include seven air bags; Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS); 4-wheel anti-lock brakes (ABS) with Electronic Brake-force Distribution (EBD); and Brake Assist. Hill Start Assist (HSA) is also standard on all continuously-variable transmission-equipped (CVT) models.

Active Stability Control (ASC) with Traction Control Logic (TCL) is also included on all models. The ASC/TCL helps stabilize the vehicle when it detects skidding and/or when the system detects a loss of traction on slippery road surfaces.

The color range includes Thunder Gray, Starlight Silver, Cloud White and Mystic Black, along with Mitsubishi Motors fan-selected colors Kiwi, Plasma Purple, Infrared and Sapphire Blue in the Mitsubishi Mirage Color Code program.

Standard Electric Power Steering (EPS) further aids the fuel efficiency cause while providing the driver with communicative steering feel as well as a sharp turning radius of only 15.1 feet.

The entry-level Mitsubishi Mirage DE packs a long list of standard amenities. Among these features are tilt steering; automatic climate control; power windows with driver's side auto-up/down; power side mirrors; body-colored side mirrors, door handles and tailgate handle, a convenient 60/40 split folding rear seat; keyless entry with panic alarm; variable intermittent wipers; a sporty rear spoiler and a dynamic sounding 4 speaker 140-watt AM/FM/CD/MP3 with USB/iPod® input.

Every Mirage variant also features thoughtful interior design touches including ergonomically designed driver controls and instrument panel as well as upscale-looking rich high-gloss piano black trim for the center console.

The upmarket Mirage ES model features all of the welcome content on the DE while adding eye-catching 14" aluminum alloy wheels; front fog lamps; leather-wrapped steering wheel and shift knob; FAST (Free-hand Advanced Security Transmitter)-key passive entry; One-Touch Start/Stop (OSS) engine switch; steering wheel-mounted audio controls; cruise control and a Bluetooth® hands-free phone system.

Numerous amenity and accessory packages are available including LED Interior Illumination, Rear Parking Assist, Navigation System and Exterior lower body kit and Chrome accent packages.

The engine is a 1.2 liter DOHC engine with MIVEC (Mitsubishi Innovative Valve timing Electronic Control) maximizing the fuel efficiency and power output – 74HP (54 kW) and 100Nm (74 lb-ft). Consumers have a choice between a smooth-operating 5-speed manual and an advanced continuously-variable transmission (CVT) with Idle Neutral Logic.
