The Mitsubishi Mirage, a compact car known for its affordability and fuel efficiency, was produced by the Japanese automaker from 1990 to 2003. The 2001 model year, specifically, was part of the second generation of the Mirage, which saw a significant redesign compared to its predecessor. The 2001 Mirage was available in both sedan and hatchback body styles, offering a choice of either a 1.3-liter or 1.5-liter four-cylinder engine. The 1.3-liter engine produced 79 horsepower, while the 1.5-liter engine generated a more potent 92 horsepower. Both engines were paired with a five-speed manual transmission or a four-speed automatic transmission, depending on the trim level and market. With its compact dimensions and lightweight construction, the 2001 Mirage delivered impressive fuel economy, making it an attractive choice for urban dwellers and budget-conscious drivers.
The 2001 Mitsubishi Mirage, despite its simplicity, was equipped with some notable features for the time. The interior offered comfortable seating for five passengers, along with essential amenities such as air conditioning, power steering, and a CD player. Safety features included dual front airbags and anti-lock brakes on higher trim levels. While not the most powerful or luxurious compact car on the market, the 2001 Mirage provided a reliable and economical means of transportation. Although production of the second-generation Mirage ceased in 2003, its legacy continues with the revival of the Mirage nameplate in 2012. The modern Mirage, while sharing the name with its earlier counterpart, is a completely different vehicle, employing a smaller and more fuel-efficient platform. The 2001 Mirage, however, remains a testament to Mitsubishi's dedication to offering affordable and practical transportation solutions, even at the turn of the millennium.
