Mitsubishi Mirage
The Mirage is a very recent arrival on the Canadian market, falling into the city car category due to its small size. Equipped with a three-cylinder that delivers 74 horsepower, the vehicle weighs a mere 900 kg and its fuel consumption hovers around 5.0 litres/100 km combined. The hatchback (a sedan is expected very soon) offers more than enough space for four adults despite its very compact size. The Mirage is in direct competition with the Nissan Micra and Toyota Yaris.
