With the new Mirage set to go on sale in Japan at the end of August, Mitsubishi has already begun a promotional campaign for its subcompact model that will be available exclusively as a five-door hatchback.
Aside from a handful of fresh commercials, which will likely feel a bit odd to those not familiar with the Japanese media, Mitsubishi has also released several new videos detailing the Mirage.
The 3.7-meter long hatchback is offered with a single engine option, a 1.0-liter 3-cylinder MIVEC gasoline engine coupled to a new version of Mitsubishi’s CVT transmission that drives the front wheels and which returns an estimated fuel economy of up to 27.2 km/liter (equal to 64mpg US, 76.8mpg UK and 3.7lt/100km).
The Mirage is sold across Asia and will also become available in Europe, Australia and other markets around the world before the end of the year. The Japanese automaker has said that it is contemplating a North American launch as well.
