JAKARTA - Japanese automotive manufacturer Mitsubishi is rumored to have stopped offering Mirage models for the United States (US) market for 2025.

Launching Carscoops, Thursday, August 8, Mitsubishi Motors North America has announced its plans for 2025, including the presence of Outlander facelift which will arrive in the first quarter. However, the Mirage model is not on the list.

With the injection of the dead Mirage model, this further smoothed out the manufacturer's plan to become a special brand for selling crossovers or SUVs in the market.

The hatchback-style model is one of the products offered at affordable prices. In the US, Mirage is priced at USD 16,695 (IDR 268.3 million) and the sedan version costs USD 17,795 (IDR 286 million).

Meanwhile, the manufacturer with the three diamonds logo is preparing to welcome Outlander facelift with a number of style changes. The SUV will be introduced in advance to the Japanese market.

It is reported that this SUV medium will have a smoother face with new rims and revised color palettes. Another highlight is the ventilated semi-anilin leather seat, the larger 12.3-inch infotainment system, and the Yamaha premium audio system.

In addition, Outlander facelift also gets an update in terms of a powertrain plug-in hybrid (PHEV) with a battery that is claimed to have a longer distance than before. In addition, Mitsubishi also hints at higher engine power and produces smoother and more powerful acceleration.

The report on the presence of the PHEV facelift Outlander comes amid rumors about the emergence of the latest generation Pajero which is likely to carry the same electrical propulsion system as its medium-sized brothers.

Mitsubishi has started development to present the Pajero hybrid variant, with the target of starting production lines in 2027.

This news is certainly good news for Pajero fans, especially since the production of this model was stopped in 2021 after making history of 40 years with sales reaching 3.3 million vehicles worldwide.
