Japanese automaker Mitsubishi has finally show the brand new 2012 Mirage hatch for the global market during the 2011 Tokyo Motor Show, where we captured these shots of the lime-green beast. The five-doors small proportions and the front end show a focus toward practicality instead of premium upmarket feel, which is quite a gamble for the company.
It’s much the same story inside, where the design language is supposed to be “simple and clean”, which is a nice way of saying boring. And don’t dare to lustfully look at that leather, because it’s sure to cost a pretty penny.
Powering the Mirage is a brand new 1.0-liter three-pot engine with variable valve timing and a start/stop system. The transmission is a CVT responsible for distributing power to the front two wheels. In Europe, it will replace the Colt, and there’s a rumor going round that it will also be available in America.
