There's more competition in Australia in the Mirage's segment than in the U.S. or Canada. The most commonly mentioned competitors:

• Nissan Micra (available with a 1.2L 3-cylinder, CVT or 5-speed manual)
• Kia Picanto (1.3L 4-cyl, CVT or 5-speed)
• Holden Spark (aka Daewoo/Chevy with 1.4L 4-cyl, CVT or 5-speed)
• Suzuki Celerio (1.0L 3-cyl, CVT or 5-speed)

Interestingly, the Mirage got a price-cut last year, and its base price is the lowest of the bunch.
