As a college student, you need a car that’s stylish, fuel-efficient, and has enough space to give your friends a ride. The Mitsubishi Mirage is the perfect car for any college student on the go. It has all the space, power, and efficiency you could ask for in a subcompact car. Let’s explore some of the reasons this is the perfect vehicle for any college student. 

  1. Fuel Efficiency

The Mitsubishi Mirage is a subcompact SUV that takes you around town without breaking the bank. It has a small, yet capable, 1.6-liter three-cylinder engine under the hood that makes 78 horsepower and 74 pound-feet of torque. The Mirage gets 36 mpg in the city and an impressive 43 mpg on the highway. This makes it the most fuel-efficient car that isn’t a hybrid in the U.S. Its compact size makes it easy to maneuver through traffic and in and out of tight parking spaces, so you’ll never be late to class. 

  1. Up-to-Date Technology

You’ll have no problem staying connected as you travel using the up-to-date technology found in the Mirage. It features an available 6.5-inch smartphone-link touch display that is compatible with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, making it easy to use maps to find your destination. Bluetooth technology lets you stream your favorite music and podcasts from your phone, and you can make calls or send texts using only your voice. 

  1. Interior Space and Comfort

Although this is a compact car, it has plenty of room for up to five people across two rows of seats. Make use of the flexible cargo area that lets you arrange it with either passengers or gear as a priority. Even when you have the rear seat up, you still get over 17 cubic feet of cargo space. This is plenty of room for a small grocery run or transporting your books to class. There’s also an available rear shelf and luggage board that creates more space to fit what you need. Automatic climate control will keep everyone comfortable. 

  1. Modern Style

The 2020 Mitsubishi Mirage has a modern style in addition to its other great features, so you can feel good driving it to campus. To ensure you get exactly the look you want, choose from the four available trims, each offering differences that make them unique. They are the ES, LE, SE, and GT. At the ES trim level, you’ll get features like LED taillights, a rear spoiler, 14-inch steel wheels, and body-colored side mirrors. As you move up in trim levels, you can gain features such as special badging, fog lights, and turn signal indicators in the mirrors.  

Whether you’re getting ready to go to college or you’re a returning college student in need of a reliable ride, the 2020 Mitsubishi Mirage is a great car.
