2024 Mitsubishi Mirage G4 ES

The Mirage G4 is Mitsubishi's compact sedan, aimed squarely at budget-conscious buyers who want the lowest possible entry price. Its tiny engine is eager enough around town, but you'll want to plan ahead for highway merges. The ride is on the firm side, and the cabin stays reasonably quiet for a car in this price range. The sedan body gives you a decent trunk, and the back seat fits two adults comfortably. Stepping up to the ES adds automatic climate control, cruise control, and a 7.0-inch touchscreen with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto over the base SE. Its 1.2L I3 makes 78 horsepower and pairs with the CVT to return 37 mpg combined, which is the main reason to pick this car.
