    The 2017 Mirage continues to utilize a 1.2-liter 3-cylinder DOHC engine featuring the latest version of Mitsubishi Innovative Valve timing Electronic Control (MIVEC) variable valve-timing system that maximizes fuel efficiency and power output while greatly minimizing exhaust emissions. With the addition of a roller-type camshaft, Mirage increases its horsepower to 78 horsepower and 74 lb-ft torque.

    Mirage's handling and brakes are improved for 2017 as well. Optimizing the spring rate and damping force of the shock absorbers while adding stiffness to the front end achieve handling and stability improvements. In addition, bigger diameter brake discs (251 mm) are used in the front and the rear brake drums (203 mm) have increased 23 millimeters. The brake pad/shoe material has also been changed for even better stopping performance.

    Every 2017 Mirage comes equipped with a wide array of safety features and technologies. These include a seven air bag Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) comprised of dual front air bags, dual front seat-mounted side-impact air bags, dual side-impact curtain air bags, and a driver's knee air bag; 4-wheel anti-lock brakes (ABS) with Electronic Brake-force Distribution (EBD) and Brake Assist; a Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS); and Active Stability Control (ASC) with Traction Control Logic (TCL). Mirage models equipped with the continuously-variable transmission-equipped (CVT) also include Hill Start Assist (HSA).

    I based my post on what the guy was stating as the press release was rolling. I was watching it all on my phone and posted that. By the time I posted it, I saw that the actual full blown press release had been posted.

    So other than a grille change, roller cam with 4 more hp, slightly larger brakes and stiffer springs that's about it. Seems like the coeficient of drag might be slightly higher with a larger exposed upper grille even though it's supposed to be better.

    I was really going to hate it if the 2017 came with a taller 4th and 5th gear for the MT... looks like the gear ratios are the same... can't beleive they haven't addressed that.

    I suppose they are engineers after all, maybe they have a good reason behind it? If so, I certainly can't figure it out.

    they're going for a more aggressive look. hopefully the spring and dampers have been solved now. no more bottoming out on the rear.

    i wonder when will these roll out? late 2016?
