    2018 Mirage Drops Manual Transmission for SE Trim

    Mitsubishi's website now has the 2018 Mirage info. When going to the "Build and Price" area, you can now only get the ES with the five-speed manual. Both SE and GT are CVT only.

    This his hardly surprising. Nissan did the same thing with the Versa a couple years back. So did Kia. You want to row your own gears? You'll need to get the base model.

    Do you mean you can only get an es with a 5spd or you can only get a 5spd in an es?

    I think that's what the deal is. If you want a manual transmission, you apparently have no need for cruise control, fog lights, etc?!?

    According to the Mitsubishi website, you can only get the ES with the manual transmission for 2018.

    That would suck. All our car's here are es cvt's. Might have to buy up a few more before that happens.

    At least in the US, the ES is available with either transmission. Not sure about the Canada.

    I didn't mean all the ES's in canada are cvt, I meant all the 30 something Mirage ES cars at my work are cvt.

    I see that it does 37/43 MPG which lower than earlier models as far as I know. Is Mitsubishi being more conservative with their fuel efficiency estimates or the car became heavier?

    I know what you meant! I only wanted to point out that the link provided shows CVT as an option for that trim.

    And with your next post you demonstrate just that.
