## The Mitsubishi Mirage, Colt, and Lancer: A Trio of Compact Cars from the Early 90s The Mitsubishi Mirage, Colt, and Lancer models produced between 1992 and 1996 represent a vibrant era of compact cars for the Japanese automaker. These vehicles shared a common platform and design language, offering a blend of practicality, affordability, and surprisingly spirited performance. The Mirage was the smallest of the trio, marketed as a budget-friendly city car with a focus on fuel efficiency. The Colt, slightly larger, aimed to offer a more versatile option with a spacious cabin and comfortable ride. The Lancer, the most powerful of the three, appealed to those seeking a balance of performance and practicality, often being equipped with larger engines and sportier styling. All three models were offered in a variety of body styles, including hatchbacks, sedans, and even a small pickup truck, catering to a diverse range of driver needs. These early 90s Mitsubishi models were known for their reliable and durable construction, with the majority of vehicles being powered by the brand's proven 1.3L and 1.5L four-cylinder engines. They were also praised for their nimble handling and surprisingly comfortable ride for their segment. While not renowned for luxurious appointments, the interiors offered a decent level of comfort and practicality, with features such as air conditioning, power steering, and AM/FM radios becoming increasingly standard. These compact cars were popular choices for families, young drivers, and those seeking an economical and reliable vehicle for daily driving. However, their lack of advanced safety features and technology compared to modern vehicles make them less appealing to today's buyers. Nevertheless, their simplicity and affordability still make them attractive for enthusiasts seeking a reliable and easily maintainable classic car.
