    They're still doing economy runs with the Mirage

    Mitsubishi sponsored a bunch of economy runs in multiple countries when the car first came out.

    I was slightly surprised to see they're still at it, nearly 10 years after the car's launch.

    This time it's a Mirage G4 CVT in the Philippines...

    After a highway test on SCTEX/TPLEX with a total distance of 236.227 km, the Mirage G4 GLS 1.2 CVT variant achieved an excellent fuel mileage of 22.823kpl. To simulate real-life driving situations, the vehicles were at full fuel capacity and tire pressure was set to 32 psi. The speed was maintained at an average of 80kph while adhering to all traffic regulations. There were three passengers on board, no extra luggage, and the air-conditioning was set to the low cool thermostat and lowest blower setting.
    22.823 km/L = 53.7 MPG (US) = 4.4 L/100 km

    I'm not even sure what that means, but if the AC compressor was running during any portion of that, that's impressive!
