If you’re seeking out a compact car that looks good, offers a good performance-to-dollar ratio, and doesn’t look like it was designed in a jelly bean factory, the 2015 Mitsubishi Lancer deserves your attention. An impressive warranty and good safety ratings also make this little economy car an attractive prospect.
Without options such as ventilated seats, blind-spot monitoring or the ability to parallel park itself, the Mitsubishi Lancer struggles to compete with compact sedans like the Ford Focus, Hyundai Elantra or Mazda Mazda3, all of which get better fuel economy as well.
