The '''Mitsubishi Mirage''' was a small 3 door hatchback available in Australia from June 1996 until 2003 when it was replaced by the [[7g_Colt|Mitsubishi Colt]]. It is designated as the '''CE''' Mirage. The Mirage is the sixth generation in the Mitsubishi Colt line, which dates back to 1962.

All Australian Mirages use the 12-valve SOHC version of the 1.5 Litre [[4G15|Orion]] (4G15) engine with either [[F5M41]] 5 speed manual or [[F4A41]] 4 speed automatic transmission. Power is 69 kW at 5000 rpm and torque is 126 Nm at 3000 rpm. Fuel consumption is listed as 5.7L/100Km for the manual and 6.1L/100Km for automatic. All have front disc brakes with rear drum.

==1996-1998==

The first of the Mirages to be sold in Australia were relatively basic little cars, with non-coloured bumpers, steel wheels with centre caps, 2 speaker cassette stereo system and engine immobiliser. It was available in a single variant although a "Power Pack" was available as an option which gave the vehicle power steering, body coloured front and rear bumper bars and tailgate wiper washers. Air conditioning, automatic transmission, dual-front airbags and power steering were also available as separate options. It can be distinguished from other model Mirages by its small open grille.

==MY99==

The MY99 Mirage was released in August 1998. Equipment levels were slightly increased, with a 4 speaker CD player and remote central locking being added to the standard equipment list.
 +
 
 +
==MY00==
 +
The MY00 Mirage was released on the Australian market in August 1999. The MY00 inroduced slight changes to styling with body coloured bumpers used, a larger grille with horizontal bar, modified front bumper, steel wheels with plastic wheel covers and large Mirage badging across the rear tailgate.
 +
 
 +
The MY00 continued the same equipment list on the basic Mirage while adding a sporty VR-X trim level with body kit, white-faced instrument dials, 14" alloy wheels and power windows.
 +
 
 +
==MY02==
 +
The MY02 was the final update of the Mirage before it was replaced by the [[7g_Colt|Colt]]. It was released in October 2001. Styling changes were minimal with a silver mesh grille in place of the previous horizontal bar grille. The VR-X was dropped from the range, returning to a single variant.

 +
Driver's side airbag and power steering were added to the standard equipment list, with passenger airbag and airconditioning remaining optional.
