The 2020 Mitsubishi Mirage and the Mirage G4 are unbeatable in terms of efficiency and affordability. While the two vehicles share a lot in common, they do have some notable distinctions.
Exterior Styling and Trim Levels
The first difference between these two great vehicles is their exterior appearance and classifications. The Mitsubishi Mirage is classified as a subcompact hatchback offered in four trims, while the G4 is a subcompact sedan offered in three trim levels. In terms of outward appearance, the Mirage G4 is a bit longer than the Mirage – 20 inches to be precise.
The base trims of the Mirage and the Mirage G4 come with 14-inch steel wheels. The wheels get upgraded as you go up the trim levels of the Mitsubishi Mirage. The top Mirage SE gets keyless entry and ignition while the Mirage GT is offered with 15-inch alloy wheels and xenon headlights. On the other hand, even the base trim of the Mirage G4 gets keyless entry and ignition.
Pricing and Affordability
The two vehicles are designed as proof that you do not have to break the bank to drive a decent car. The two vehicles, however, have different price tags. The starting price for the Mirage is $13,995, while that of the Mirage G4 is $14,995.
The two cars are fitted with a similar engine that is incredibly efficient. Buying either of these cars assures you of money-saving in the long run due to the engines’ efficiency. The fuel economy is also different in each car. The Mirage reaches an EPA estimation of 43 mpg on the highway, while the Mirage G4 reaches 41 mpg.
Interior Features and Cabin Space
Regardless of the Mirage you choose, each of these cars come standard with incredible interior features such as a USB port, Bluetooth connectivity, and a high-quality four-speaker sound system. Other common features include cruise control, tilt-only steering wheel, and automatic climate control. One key difference in the base trims of the Mirage and the Mirage G4 is that the G4 comes with a 7-inch touch screen display, which is absent in the Mitsubishi Mirage.
The two vehicles also have ample cabin space to keep you feeling comfortable. The Mirage G4, however, has more cabin space than Mirage. The G4 has a passenger volume of 89.2 cubic feet. The Mirage offers a little more space at the truck for your groceries to compensate for the lost cabin space. The Mirage also has rear seat folding functionality as standard, designed to enlarge the cargo space further.
Engine and Performance
One thing that’s identical between the 2020 Mitsubishi Mirage and the Mirage G4 is their power source. The two are powered by the same 1.2-liter three-cylinder engine producing 78 horsepower and 74 lbs.-ft of torque. Both cars’ base trims give you either a five-speed manual transmission or an automatic continuously variable transmission (CVT). Again, as you go up the trim levels, all the two cars are offered with the CTV only.
