Mitsubishi Mirage G4 GLX 1.2L MT (2015) vs Toyota Wigo 1.0 G AT (2017)

Mitsubishi Mirage G4 GLX 1.2L MT (2015) vs Toyota Wigo 1.0 G AT (2017): which should you buy?

For a Filipino buyer weighing cost, performance and practicality, the Toyota Wigo 1.0 G AT edges out the Mitsubishi Mirage G4 GLX 1.2L MT despite its slightly lower power output. The Wigo is cheaper by ₱55,000, comes with an automatic 4‑speed transmission that eases city driving, and offers a five‑door hatch layout that improves rear‑seat access and cargo flexibility—important for tight urban parking and errands. While the Mirage delivers a modest power advantage (78 PS vs 66 PS) and a slightly larger 1.2 L engine, its manual 5‑speed gearbox may be less convenient for stop‑and‑go traffic, and the sedan body provides less versatile cargo space. Both cars share the same front‑wheel‑drive layout, unibody construction and B‑segment classification, and similar warranty mileage, though the Mirage enjoys a longer warranty period (5 years vs 3 years). If you prioritize a lower purchase price, easier drivability, and more practical hatch‑back utility, the 2017 Toyota Wigo is the better choice. Choose the 2015 Mitsubishi Mirage only if you value a bit more power, prefer a traditional sedan silhouette, and are willing to handle a manual transmission for a modest price premium.
