The price has gone up YoY, but same has the price of everything else.
There is a school of thought where simplifying production by removing choice can help to keep manufacturing costs down.
That's what Google did with the Pixel 4A, for example. It's weird, but you can make it so you get more for less if you are producing at scale. Have a look at the armrest, switches, and door handle for an Outlander Sport and see if they seem a little familiar to you:
Additionally, many of the things in a car that people point to as luxuries (BlueTooth, power windows, automatic climate control) actually end up costing pennies with our modern manufacturing. This is especially true for electronics. If you buy in bulk, the reverse camera and touchscreen head unit probably end up costing Mitsubishi maybe $50. And that's on the high end. By comparison, a standard head unit and no camera costs, for e.g., $40.
Because of the shared parts between vehicles, the super cheap cost of electronics, and the potential efficiencies that could be gained by reducing trim levels, it actually probably ends up costing Mitsubishi
more to make a Mirage with crank windows.
