My 2017 Lancer 2.4 with AWC is an excellent car...34MPG on the highway. I love the simplicity of it...only regular maintenance, struts and sway bar links so far...as well as a new battery after 7 years of ownership...will get new tires (both Winter and Summer) this year. I have 215,000 KM and I plan to drive it for years to come.
My 2001 model Pajero ( Montero ) has done a lot of serious off-roading as well as regular trips of 8-12 hour drives and still going .Bought it used in 2005 !
Liars, I have a Mitsubishi Outlander Sport 2022 with 47,000 miles and I have not had any mechanical problems. I took it to Guadalajara, Jalisco, Mexico from Houston, Texas. It is an excellent suv Hyundai . They don't say anything and they are a piece of junk. Liars
Wow, complete BS on Eclipse Cross, have owned Australian spec Exceed and disagree with all comments. It is no slouch when it comes to overtaking, comfortable ride and no issues with cvt. Very disappointing review. I would buy another one if required.
No one is buying the Mirage, and taking it on a road trip. This thing is designed to fill a void in the car-buying industry. One consisting of either new drivers who recently graduated High school, don't come from Wealthy or Middle class families, but need basic transportation. Either while in college, or when first entering the work-force. Or, individuals who later in Life have hit hard times. They are very slowly picking themselves back up off the ground. Found a cheap room to rent. Found a job so they can earn money. But need a reliable car to get to that job, and back home; on a daily basis. I don't trust any so-called "Expert Opinion" that says buy a used car (with tons of potentially expensive hidden issues that'll need to be fixed) over a brand new Mirage (that'll realistically be trouble-free for at least a handful of years). A used car would be better?? That is just ridiculous! Comparing the Mirage to other cars is also ridiculous. It should actually be compared against taking Public transportation. Which in many parts of 1st World countries tends to be woefully sub-par outside of major cities. For what it is, the Mirage is a perfectly acceptable car. Yes, I know it's not the cheapest new car sold in America. The Nissan Versa is better in quite a few ways. However, if you want a more pragmatic hatchback body style over the Versa's sedan-only option, the Mirage is your only choice. And, while the Versa technically is the cheaper of the two options. Mitsubishi dealers want Mirages off of their lots. So, they will bend over backwards offering potential customers usually huge rebates to purchase this already inexpensive car. Financing? No problem! Terrible Credit? They WILL get you a loan on a Mirage. The more they sell, the more Mitsubishi will ship them more popular models to sell on their lots. That's how it works with all car brands.
I'm guessing this review is only applicable to the US? Because the mirage g4 here in ph is doing really well. This car targets consumers that are particular in fuel efficiency. I came from a 2nd gen crv and although i miss having a car with high clearance, great suspension and a lot of power and speed, the fuel efficiency of this car outweighs all of what I mentioned, plus it's fun to drive. It may not be a fast car but it runs decently. In the video it mentioned "cheap interior", that's because it is an affordable car. Another plus is maintaining this car is no problem, no problem with availability of parts and prices are pretty good too.
In North America and Europe, Mitsubishi was never in the radar of most buyers and the automotive writers. With so many automakers offering more competitive models in terms of design, technology and performance, Mitsubishi is at a disadvantage. Low sales, low brand perception from the public. The 2007 upwards generation lancer model is good, but suffered from lack of updates amid the influx of newer models from other automakers. This is true for other mitsubishi models. They were/are not bad cars, the competition just got stiffer and better (?) with more tech, features, performance, design. In the ASEAN region, the car buying culture is different. Vastly different. People perceive Asian, especially Japanese cars to be more reliable and trustworthy than American or European brands. And not all car brands are present in ASEAN. And design and technology that evolve so furiously fast in Europe and NA take a backseat in the region. So, while the automotive world and the buying public in the west prefer cutting edge design, technology and performance, some people in some parts of the world prefer low key, but quality models from smaller makers. Like Mitsubishi. The current Mirage is 12 years old. The interior really looks dated, the engine is noisy. And no replacement is in sight. But as long as it is reliable and decent for the money, people do just fine with it.
Just some advice = DON'T listen to or believe what this reviewer is saying. Clearly a paid disinformationalist to discredit Mitsubishi. Cars from any manufacturer are built to a price and specification, to be able sell products to a wide wages bracket of the population.
The top 2 Mitsubishi that is not released in the U.S. I have the current model Outlander Sport and I enjoy driving it unfortunately the Cat is easily stolen as they are persistent in putting it in the easy middle of the vehicle.
"CVT bad" and then "Higher trims even worst" when said High trim give you an Automatic Mitsubishis Most *Certainly* has issues but please Don't listen to this bot
One of the most reliable makes. It more looks like he 's. talking about US cars. I think it's crab. The Japanese ruled the carworld for more than 45 years. They are always at the 5 most reliable makes in the world!!
1) most of the car companies use a cvt transmission. 2) this vehicle video don’t tell you about quality 3) in my life I own 5 mitsubishi and my experience is very good car overall Mitsubjshi is very good car
Lol click trash content I can testified the mirage G4 is so durable it tested during a heavy flood in UAE, many big SUV already stop working while mine is still running do your research properly
I think the Lancer is fine for budget conscious drivers that don't need the best. They certainly aren't paying much for it. I would choose the manual transmission, of course.
This review is a JOKE ! They said the Outlander Sport is terrible. It has an UGLY FRONT END and plastic interior. Then they praise both the Outlander and the Outlander PHEV especially noting the very stylish front end. It's the same front end that they hated on the Sport model. I have never owned a Mitsubishi but I am interested in the Canadian version of the Outlander Sport called the RVR. It doesn't have DIRECT INJECTION which is HARD ON AN ENGINE. It has a sequential multi port injection which is the best you can buy. It doesn't have a TURBO which is also HARD ON AN ENGINE. It is naturally aspirated instead. It doesn't have the STOP/START feature which is HARD ON AN ENGINE. It has a timing chain not the cheap TIMING BELT. It has the DOHC CVT . I like the CVT bc the first one I had lasted 14 1/2 YEARS and was still going strong when I sold it. Ever wonder why so many cars have engines that fail? Then re-read this review and you will see why.
this video basically says all Mitsubishi's cars not named Outlander/Outlander PHEV, needs to be avoided since they name all the cars sold in the US. I do wish Mitsublishi sold their trucks here in the US
I had a 2016 Nissan Qashqai, I only tolerated it for 2 years, it was such a terrible experience, I now avoid anything Nissan related (Mitsubishi and Renault)

id still prefer a japanese mitsubishi over a bmw in terms of practicality and maintenance wise issues.
My 2001 model Pajero ( Montero ) has done a lot of serious off-roading as well as regular trips of 8-12 hour drives and still going .Bought it used in 2005 !
I have 2008 mitsubishi lancer es using for work..almost half a million klm until now never miss a beat

I think this guy never drive a Mitsubishi 🤣
Very happy with my 2023 MItsubishi Outlander Phev SEL, Just a Great SUV
do you use it in the cold?
Wow, complete BS on Eclipse Cross, have owned Australian spec Exceed and disagree with all comments. It is no slouch when it comes to overtaking, comfortable ride and no issues with cvt. Very disappointing review. I would buy another one if required.
Still mitsubishi ❤
I had two superb Lancers ‘95 and 2000.
I still drive a very dependable ‘14 Montero sport.

There’s no Pajero or L200 in the US. I assume this is for/from Australia

Outlander Sport has standard AWD in all trims.

Yeah as soon as this guy mentioned Cruze as if it's a good car I was like yupppp he has no idea what he's talking about
Agreed
The top 2 Mitsubishi that is not released in the U.S.
I have the current model Outlander Sport and I enjoy driving it unfortunately the Cat is easily stolen as they are persistent in putting it in the easy middle of the vehicle.
I really enjoy driving my 2023 PHEV GT. Best vehicle I’ve owned, have had BMW M3 and several larger Family vans
On a hot summer day, I thought I saw a car up ahead but it was only a Mirage
"CVT bad"
and then "Higher trims even worst" when said High trim give you an Automatic
Mitsubishis Most *Certainly* has issues
but please Don't listen to this bot
One of the most reliable makes. It more looks like he 's. talking about US cars.
I think it's crab.
The Japanese ruled the carworld for more than 45 years. They are always at the 5 most reliable makes in the world!!
Still mitsubishi
1) most of the car companies use a cvt transmission. 2) this vehicle video don’t tell you about quality 3) in my life I own 5 mitsubishi and my experience is very good car overall Mitsubjshi is very good car
But they last, not like the 1.4 or 1.5 turbo pos that are about now.
Lol click trash content I can testified the mirage G4 is so durable it tested during a heavy flood in UAE, many big SUV already stop working while mine is still running do your research properly
OMG this Mitsibushi is much better than all the recall hell of Ford, Chevy and Dodge. It not perfect but it is much better then the American top 3
I think the Lancer is fine for budget conscious drivers that don't need the best. They certainly aren't paying much for it. I would choose the manual transmission, of course.

What's with the random 2017 model when this video is 2024?
You must be sponsored by GM or Chevy or Ford. Maybe KIA.Right?
mOntero/ Pajero sport here in ph Good
Is this a robot voice speaking? Awkward at times.
this video basically says all Mitsubishi's cars not named Outlander/Outlander PHEV, needs to be avoided since they name all the cars sold in the US. I do wish Mitsublishi sold their trucks here in the US
I had a 2016 Nissan Qashqai, I only tolerated it for 2 years, it was such a terrible experience, I now avoid anything Nissan related (Mitsubishi and Renault)
Who is this reviewer? 😂 dude I just traded in my 2023 elantra N for a 2024 outlander. Don't regret it.
Surely one avoids due to engine and unreliability? Not due to material fixtures.
Great vehicles mechanically but very long in the tooth product.
The Outlander front design is soooooooo Ugly!😢
This reviewer should be sued by Manufacturer !!!🤥🤥🤥
What hack job
Bs review
I’d avoid Mitsubishi altogether.
