Mirage awarded "Best Value / Lowest Total Cost of Ownership" Canada, US. - Vincentric

[MetroMPG]

The Mirage just won an award in Canada for "Best Fleet Value 2014" in its segment.

The Mitsubishi Mirage conquered the competition in this year's newly added micro segment, winning the Vincentric Best Fleet Value in Canada award for the first time. The Mirage delivered the lowest total cost of ownership in every one of the 24 lifecycle scenarios measured.

Not surprisingly, the car's excellent fuel economy contributed, as well as its "lowest in class depreciation."

The award specifies the base level car. (Presumably with the CVT, but it didn't say.)
