2015 Mitsubishi Mirage Reviews, Pricing & Specs
Write a review
Mitsubishi’s little car that can enters 2015 with a few cosmetic touches over its all-new debut last year, but is otherwise essentially unchanged. The additions amount to new chrome interior accents for the base DE, and for the top-shelf ES new upholstery and side mirrors with integrated turn signals. All standard, but that’s it for changes. Features and options otherwise are expected to remain exactly the same for the same low entry fee, and drivers holding no illusions about this budget hatch say the Mirage more than handles their needs.
Yes, it looks and feels every bit its asking price—which is to say, cheap. The plastics are hard and plain, the style could throw you through a '90s time warp for all 12 seconds it takes to reach highway speeds, and its driving character is aptly described as "treacherously fun," but where the Mirage truly shines is in cost-to-own relative to all it can do. It offers just over 17 cubic feet between the seats and hatch, but a full 47 cubes can be opened up by folding down that rear bench—and don’t be surprised if fuel economy ends up being more like 50 mpg, even though it’s a pure gas-fueled machine.
But those aren’t the only magic tricks in the Mirage’s toolkit. Equipment is something that gets high praise from drivers, too, with the base DE coming with features like keyless entry, automatic climate control and a stereo system that includes USB and auxiliary audio inputs. Upgrade to the ES and you’ll fetch keyless ignition, cruise control, a leather-wrapped multifunction steering wheel and Bluetooth connectivity as well as the option for a navigation system bundled with a rear-view camera. But that’s the only option package exclusive to the ES—Mitsubishi is otherwise kind enough to offer everything else available to either trim.
Whatever the shell’s stuffing, the engine is the same 1.2-liter 3-cylinder putting out 74 hp and lb-ft of torque, with the same choice of either a 5-speed manual or continuously variable transmission (CVT). The manual is estimated at 34 mpg city/42 highway but reportedly manages closer to 50 mpg in some situations, whereas the CVT is pretty true to its 37/44 estimate.
The Mirage definitely doesn’t make it to highway speeds before 11 seconds with either transmission, but true to its illusionist name, drivers are so engaged by the ride there are no complaints about feeling pokey except for passing on the highway with the air conditioner running. One driver suggests getting an aftermarket rear sway bar to improve the car's twitchy wobble with sport tires to maximize overall performance. Others say it’s all just part of the fun. What’s clear is drivers don’t get the Mirage to feel isolated from the road, but to feel every exhilarating moment before returning to work-a-day life.

Junk, lots of mechanical issues. When you put heat or air on the whole car shakes and loses the already little power it has. Struggles going up hill. Takes forever to get to 80 Km. Very loud engine inside the cabin, Jan 24, 2024

The car lacks power which led to poor acceleration. The side mirrors are designed strangely not allowing the driver to have a clear picture of their surroundings and the handling was sluggish. Ive owned Mitsubishis in the past and just expected more from a 4 wheeled Japanese Zero!Nov 02, 2023

My 2015 Mitsubishi Mirage is the best and most reliable car I have ever bought! I get up 52mpg in the high way and even 75mpg going down the Sequoias. 35mpg in the city! Its an awesome car to learn how to drive. I purchased mine used with about 30,000 miles from Hertz Rental for only $7,200! Yes, its a very simple car, but I can go over 400 miles on a full tank on highway trips! I Love it! Ive personally put 180,000 miles with just oil changes every 7,000 miles, transmission oil changes every 50,000 after the first 100,000 transmission oil change and the spark plugs. This is an excellent commuter vehicle and the car insurance is one of the lowest! While spend $30,000 for a commuter vehicle, while you can get a Mitsubishi Mirage used for less than $10,000!Aug 04, 2022

What users have asked
Car stalls when out in great, but idles fine
Just had transmission serviced today, but drive my car a few hundred miles a day about 250 miles pay service and 4 hours driving this issue began. Never happened before this,. No smoke, or obvious smell. When the engine does it puts up the following lights, battery first, then service engine and oil simultaneously. Oil was changed to weeks ago.

Help with Door
Need to know the best way to handle my door that got hit. A truck pulled a corner too wide and caught the corner of my door as I was opening it. Didn't get the truck info so unfortunately can't go insurance route. Can body shops fix this or do I need to replace it completely? If I need to replace it what is the cheapest/best way to handle this? Thanks in advance!

I have a 2015 Mirage and it started to miss fire quite a few times off and on one day works great next day miss fires alot. Our service manager says probably it is gas.
Have had it on vacation and had many gas fills and it still does it. Service manager says oh that northern fuel is different that ours!! Very frustrating!! I am afraid it could be dangerous if in the right circumstance.
