How we verify Mitsubishi Mirage performance data

We include only independently published road-test results from automotive publications. Manufacturer-claimed 0–60 times are excluded unless clearly labeled. When multiple publications test the same Mitsubishi Mirage trim, each run is listed separately — weather, tires, surface, rollout, and instrumentation all affect results.

Mitsubishi Mirage performance FAQs

6 questions
The quickest Mitsubishi Mirage on record is the 1994 Mitsubishi Mirage LS Coupe, which runs 0–60 mph in 8.7 seconds and clears the quarter-mile in 16.60 seconds at 84.6 mph.
The slowest recorded Mitsubishi Mirage is the 2017 Mitsubishi Mirage G4 SE Sedan, which takes 12.8 seconds to reach 60 mph and runs 19.50 seconds in the quarter.
Averaged across all 8 verified runs, a Mitsubishi Mirage reaches 60 mph in 10.84 seconds and completes the quarter-mile in 18.04 seconds at roughly 77.2 mph.
We have verified test data for 7 model years. Each year shows every recorded run, the publication that measured it, and the trim-level details.
Every figure is sourced from published road tests by Car and Driver, Motor Trend and Motor Week. We don't use manufacturer claims — only independently timed runs — so the numbers reflect what the car actually does.
0–60 and quarter-mile results depend on driver technique, ambient temperature, tire condition, road surface, altitude, and testing instrumentation. A published figure is a single sample, not an absolute — which is why we show the range of verified runs rather than one number.
