How reliable is a Mitsubishi Mirage?

I just moved to southern Texas and it’s really hot here! My old car did fine back at home, but I think the heat here is just too much for her. Would a Mitsubishi Mirage be a good replacement?

The
Mitsubishi Mirage
is considered pretty reliable overall and ranks well when compared to other subcompact cars on the market right now. It also has low average ownership costs of $457 per year, which are significantly better than some similar models.
That said, it’s also important to point out that Mitsubishi Mirages don’t usually last as long as some of the other options on the table. The Mirage lasts for an average of 130,000 to 150,000 miles before breaking down, while many other cars of the same size last for 200,000 miles or more.
Whether or not you decide to buy the Mirage, you’ll need to update your insurance now that you’ve moved. Check out the
