Choose a specific vehicle. Where data is available, its detail page shows the import cost calculation. We assess any possible duty benefit with you before purchase.
Important: A 0% EU import-duty rate may be available for a vehicle covered by Regulation (EU) 2026/1455 that has US origin and is imported directly into the EU. CETA may apply to a vehicle with preferential Canadian origin. Whether the requirements are met is assessed for the individual case. Please contact us before purchase; we review the possible duty benefit and provide non-binding support through the process. Import VAT and other costs are assessed separately.
CarHub · Mitsubishi
The Mitsubishi Mirage is one of the least complicated cars on the American market, and that simplicity is exactly why some buyers ask us to source one.

Model profile
The Mirage nameplate has a long history stretching back to the late 1970s, but the car sold in America in the modern era is the sixth-generation global model launched in 2012. The US hatchback arrived for the 2014 model year, with a notable facelift for 2017 that revised the front end, lighting and interior, and a further refresh around 2021.
Powertrain and equipment
Every US Mirage uses a small 1.2-litre three-cylinder petrol engine (the 3A92) producing around 78 hp. It drives the front wheels through either a five-speed manual gearbox or, far more commonly in the US, a CVT automatic.
The US range was straightforward: a five-door hatchback and the G4 four-door sedan, offered in trims such as ES, SE and, on later cars, a sportier-looking GT.
Vehicle selection
Because the Mirage sold as an entry-level economy car, the American used market is full of low-purchase-price examples, many with modest mileage from single owners who used them lightly.
A US-sourced Mirage suits the buyer who wants the cheapest possible thing to run, a curiosity, or a specific American-market colour or configuration.

Pre-purchase review
For the Mitsubishi Mirage, the agreed inspection plan focuses in particular on vehicle history, visible body and underbody condition, fluid leaks, warning messages, tyres, brakes and accessible suspension components. USCar Trader can document these points through a separately commissioned on-site inspection; inaccessible areas or unauthorised road tests are explicitly recorded as unchecked.
Germany and Europe
US Mirages run amber front side markers and North American rear lighting without a rear fog lamp, and instruments read in mph.
Typical changes are the lighting (front side markers, addition of a rear fog lamp, headlight conformity) and confirmation of the odometer reading.
USCar Trader services
As a buyer based in Germany, you do not have to inspect the vehicle yourself in the United States or Canada. Within the agreed scope, USCar Trader can coordinate document review, a separately commissioned on-site inspection and purchase processing.
Covered inspection points are agreed in advance. An on-site inspection records condition at the appointment and is not a guarantee.
Next step: Before commissioning, USCar Trader and the customer agree which document, history, inspection and transaction checks suit the vehicle and are included in the service. This records what was actually checked.
Import process
The assessment depends on the specific vehicle and the circumstances of the transaction. Please contact USCar Trader before purchase; we review any possible duty benefit and provide non-binding support. Import VAT and other costs are considered separately.
Questions and answers
For a buyer who wants an extremely cheap-to-run, mechanically simple car or a specific US example, yes. It is a niche but entirely practical import.
Very reliable in mechanical terms, thanks to its simplicity. The main thing to watch is CVT maintenance under heavy use.
No, not automatically. A 0% EU import-duty rate may be available for a vehicle covered by Regulation (EU) 2026/1455 that has US origin and is imported directly into the EU. CETA may apply to a vehicle with preferential Canadian origin. Whether the requirements are met is assessed for the individual case. Please contact USCar Trader before purchase; we review the possible duty benefit and provide non-binding support. Import VAT and other costs are assessed separately.
The manual is rarer and simpler; the CVT is far more common in the US. A well-serviced CVT car is fine for everyday use.
It is one of the most fuel-efficient petrol cars sold in the US, which is its main practical advantage.
Mainly lighting — side markers and a rear fog lamp — plus the individual approval and registration formalities.
Usually by container from a US port to Bremerhaven or Rotterdam, which protects it during the crossing.
No. We act as an independent broker and intermediary for used US vehicles and organise the import on your behalf.
