Mitsubishi has redesigned the Mirage G4 for 2021. With a sportier exterior design, an improved interior, and new safety features, this subcompact sedan offers more value now than in prior model years.
How Does the Mirage G4 Differ From the Mirage? A comparison of the two models
Performance
Each trim of the 2021 Mirage G4 has the 1.2-liter MIVEC DOHC engine. This engine pairs with a five-speed manual transmission on the ES trim and with the Continuously Variable Transmission on upper trims for smoother drives.
The car also gets an EPA-estimated 35 mpg in the city and 41 mpg on the highway. Plus, with its small turning radius and subcompact design, the car can handle commutes through cramped city streets.

Exterior
The exterior of the 2021 Mirage G4 now features the newest Dynamic Shield grille design and a refined front bumper. L-shaped horizontal LED combination taillamps come standard, and new LED headlights and LED daytime running lamps are optional.
The new available Carbonite Edition also adds to the car’s appearance with an air dam, a b-pillar decal, and a rear air dam with contrasting red accents and a carbon pattern. You can opt for it in Mystic Black Metallic, White Diamond, Wine Red Metallic, and Starlight Silver Metallic colors.

Interior
On the inside, the 2021 Mirage G4 has seating for up to five passengers and 12.4 cubic feet of trunk space for your cargo. You can also utilize the rear seat pass-through if you need to transport sports gear and other large items in the car.
The ES trim has new soft-touch cloth and a power window switch trim with a sporty carbon fiber effect. In addition, each trim level comes standard with a six-way adjustable driver seat and automatic climate control.
