    The 2017 Mitsubishi Mirage Is All New This Year

    The Mitsubishi Mirage has been completely redone for the 2017 model year. This subcompact took an entire year off just to get a make over from the expert designers and engineers at Mitsubishi. It still has the great fuel economy that it did previously but it also has a lot of new upgrades and plenty of improvements that will make any Mirage owner as happy as can be.

    Some of the things you’ll notice right away are the new bumper, interior materials, headlights and taillights. Even the engine got a makeover – a power increase of four more horsepower that is noticeable from the first time you step on the accelerator. When the Mirage first came out in 2014 it became the second most popular model in Mitsubishi’s automotive line up. However, even though this subcompact was quite competitive, the People at Mitsubishi felt it could do much better. So, they pulled it from the sales floor for a whole year and went back to the drawing board and to the customers to see how it could be improved.

    Well, apparently, the research worked because the Mirage was improved in all the right places and it is back to its highly competitive self. Besides the obvious upgrades mentioned above, the Mirage also received some very nice mechanical improvements. There’s a new steering wheel that fits like a glove and is attractive to even the most hardcore automotive critics. There are also larger brakes on all four wheels along with hill-start assist, a manual transmission and revised suspension. Technology upgrades are also evident with the addition of Android Auto and Apple CarPlay, which brings this hatchback up to par with the rest of the automotive technical world.

    There are three trim levels in the Mirage: the ES, SE and GT. The base model is the ES, which offers 14-inch wheels, LED taillights, a Rear spoiler, power accessories, automatic headlights, 60/40 split-folding rear seats, USB and audio inputs and a four-speaker sound system.

    The SE trim level offers a rearview camera, a height-adjustable driver seat, automatic climate control, alloy wheels, a leather-wrapped steering wheel fog lights, cruise control, keyless ignition and entry, a 6.5-inch touchscreen with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto functionality and Bluetooth connectivity.

    The GT model gets you 15-inch alloy wheels. Heated front seats, Xenon headlights and all the features mentioned in the earlier two trim levels. This very economical hatchback can be test driven at Lone Star Mitsubishi.

    • Looks like the new Mercedes-AMG S 63 E PERFORMANCE was spotted testing in South Africa 🇿🇦

    • We waited a fair bit for the Tiguan R to arrive but that means it has been given enough thought and executed with the sort of German precision that makes us happy to have waited.

As fast SUVs go it’s a cracker, and with a price tag starting from R1,014,900 it is actually decent value in the segment.

It’s fun, aggressive when you want it to be and remarkably civilised when you don’t. Cars like this rarely make sense, but the Tiguan R is one case where that argument starts to change one's mind.

We cannot wait to drive the matching Golf next week!

    • The very first SA-spec BMW M2 snapped at BMW HQ in Midrand.

Zandvoort Blue would not be our choice but the looks have certainly grown on us. What about all of you?

    • If you’re expecting a faster, angrier and more focused version of the original 86, you’re going to be happy with this car.

Toyota finally gave the 86 more power. It’s not take-your-breath-away power, but again, it’s not made to win drag races. If you want more power, get a Supra.

Sure it is a bit more pricey this time around but it is a no-regrets kind of car that you will enjoy just as much today as 10 years from now.

Long live the manual transmission, especially when it’s packaged within something as fun as the Toyota GR86.
