Hyundai Grand i10 1.0 S MT (2015) vs Mitsubishi Mirage G4 GLX 1.2L MT (2015)

Hyundai Grand i10 1.0 S MT (2015) vs Mitsubishi Mirage G4 GLX 1.2L MT (2015): which should you buy?

For a Filipino buyer focused on budget and city maneuverability, the 2015 Hyundai Grand i10 1.0 S MT is the more sensible pick. It comes in at ₱558,000, roughly ₱108,000 cheaper than the Mitsubishi Mirage G4 GLX, and its compact 3765 mm hatchback body makes parallel parking and tight‑lane driving easier. The Grand i10 also offers a five‑door layout and a 2+3 seating arrangement, giving a bit more flexibility for occasional rear‑seat passengers compared with the Mirage’s four‑door sedan. However, the Mirage delivers a stronger 1193 cc engine that produces 78 PS and 100 Nm, versus the i10’s 66 PS and 94 Nm, translating to noticeably better acceleration on highways and when overtaking. The Mirage also carries a current‑model warranty of 100,000 km/5 years, while the i10’s warranty is listed as “Unlimited/5‑years” but the model is discontinued, meaning spare parts and dealer support may be harder to find. If you need a more powerful, newer‑generation sedan for mixed city‑highway use and value a guaranteed service network, the Mirage is preferable. If you prioritize lower upfront cost, tighter dimensions, and can accept limited future support, the Grand i10 remains a practical city hatchback.
