It may look like a mouse but the 2014 Mitsubishi Mirage goes back to automotive basics. In a day and age where consumers are demanding more power, more luxury, and more tech, vehicles are becoming bloated and overweight. The 2014 Mitsubishi Mirage is fighting that trend. Weighing in at 1,973 pounds and powered by a naturally aspirated 1.2-liter 3 cylinder generating a poky 74 horsepower and 74 pound feet of torque. Some may look at this car and ask, why? This is what the compact cars of the 80’s and 90’s were like, small, naturally aspirated, workhorses. There are no weight reduction tricks, no force-induction, and no over the top design to compensate for its lack of performance.
