2011 Mitsubishi Lancer Pros and Cons at TrueDelta: Owner Pros and Cons by dbsh
Member5093
Warranty, maintenance cost
10 year power train, 5 year bumper to bumper, 7 year rust. #1 was warranty as I am high mileage commuter and my last car died at 130k. I was looking for best warranty.
Fuel economy
I am getting consistent 27-29 MPG on mid-west (flat) back county roads during my commute. I am getting 32 MPG on the highway. My driving style is moderately spirited.
Reliability & durability
Was sold on this feature. Seems to have a decent Module history. Not enough experience to rate directly at this time.
Price or payments
Was a little higher than I wanted but got the Price to where I could go new rather than used. Payments at $200 mo.
Powertrain performance
I came off of a 220+ Hp 6-cyl car that was 6sp sport transmission. This I4 is quite anemic at 148 HP in comparison. The CVT is different in acceleration profile and inherently smooth. I went for MPG over fun. I miss the get up and go.
Quietness
For the wimpy engine there is far too much noise. Also wind noise seems to be quite high compered to other cars.
