Is the 2024 Mitsubishi Mirage G4 a Good Car?
"Saddled with the same 78-horsepower three-cylinder engine as its Mirage Hatchback stablemate, the Mirage G4 sedan does not merit consideration as a new car today. You shouldn't consider it as a used car, either. Yes, the fuel economy's great, but that's partly because the engine's so weak that it takes 12.8 seconds to hit 60 mph. The other contributing factor is the Mirage G4's frightfully meager weight — you'd be out there amidst the SUVs in a sedan weighing 200 pounds less than a Miata. No. Just no."—Ranked #2 out of 2 Subcompact Sedans

Lighter than a Mazda Miata and dreadfully slow, the Mirage G4 is quite possibly the last modern vehicle we'd want to be stuck in. Buying one of these is never the right answer.
