Mitsubishi Attrage 2014 - 2016 Review

The Mitsubishi Attrage comes with a 1200cc, 3-cylinder, 12-valve DOHC MIVEC engine with a double overhead camshaft, producing 78 hp at 6,000 rpm and 100 Nm of torque at 4,000 rpm. It's mated to an automatic transmission and is an economical and fuel-efficient car, consuming approximately 4.8 liters of fuel per 100 km, or 1 liter of fuel per 22 km. However, this is when the air conditioning is off, which makes it consume more when it's on. The car's fuel tank capacity is 42 liters. The car is front-wheel drive.

The manual version of the car has a top speed of 172 km/h, accelerating from 0 to 100 km/h in 12.7 seconds. The automatic version of the car accelerates in 14 seconds and speeds up to 100 km/h. The car has a top speed of 170 km/h and comes with an electronically controlled multi-point fuel injection (ECI-MULTI) system.

The Attrage features an environmentally friendly engine with low fuel consumption, and the car's design provides a better driving experience, including a smoother and more comfortable ride. The car's drawbacks are its slow acceleration and weak top speed compared to other cars, but it can be said that this is a small city car that doesn't require high acceleration.

The traction and acceleration are also weak when the air conditioning is on, especially since it has a 1200 cc, 3-cylinder engine. Despite this, some owners assert that the air conditioning doesn't affect the car's excellent traction and acceleration, which they believe are excellent even with the air conditioning on, because the car meets Gulf specifications. However, this engine is not in demand in the Egyptian market, which focuses on 1600 cc engines, and therefore the car hasn't achieved the same success as the Lancer models.

The car is 4.245 meters long, has a wheelbase of 2.550 meters, is 1.515 meters high, and is 1.670 meters wide. The car has a spacious cabin, as well as ample storage space. The trunk is large for its size, accommodating a large number of bags, equipment, sports equipment, and other items.

The car's cabin offers reasonable quality for its price, but it's not particularly high quality because it's a cheap and small car. It's not considered a luxury car inside, but it has a normal cabin. The car's size is adequate, but the rear is somewhat narrow, making it uncomfortable to sit in the back seats. The car weighs 870 kg.

Despite some complaints about the high prices of car spare parts, it can be said that its spare parts are of average price and are available to a good extent in their original form and imported, but the availability of spare parts for it was limited in the previous period due to problems with the dollar and imports, but the problem was in some parts and not all of them, but they have become available again, not only in the agency, but also with dealers of imported used and new spare parts and even half-cars.

The car has a front MacPherson strut suspension with coil springs and a rear suspension with a rigid torsion beam or rigid torsion bar. The car's suspension is strong and rigid, providing it with better maneuverability on Egyptian roads. It also has a high ground clearance that helps it handle bumps on Egyptian roads fairly well.

However, some owners complained about its stability, especially at high speeds above 100 km/h and during maneuvering and turns due to its light weight. Others disagreed, finding it to be fairly stable up to 140 km/h, especially with the electric power. However, its upholstery is comfortable and light, preventing those inside from feeling bumps. It also has good interior insulation.

The Attrage is considered one of the cars that gives you the best value for your money, providing a comfortable and reassuring driving experience when navigating narrow city streets. The Attrage is easy to control and drive, yet elegant thanks to its modern design. The car's advantages in terms of fuel consumption, especially during the previous period when fuel prices rose, its distinctive size, its price, and its enjoyment of the Japanese Mitsubishi brand are all factors that make the car one of the most sought-after cars in the used car market in general. However, the car's spread in Egypt, on the other hand, is not widespread due to the agency's failure to market it well in the past. In addition, the car was only offered in Egypt for a short period as two or three models and has not been available for two years. Therefore, it can be said that what it has achieved in light of the agency's weakness, the lack of good promotion, and its short availability is a good thing.
