Mitsu Canada revealed the specs for the Canadian edition of the car today.
1.2L engine, 5-speed
and CVT confirmed, "class leading fuel economy", and priced in the "low teens", around $13k.

They're still being strangely coy about what the car will be called, though - even though Mitsu Canada's PR manager confirmed to me in an earlier e-mail that it will be called "Mirage". I'm wondering if there's a trademark issue in the U.S. that's holding things up, or if they're debating whether to resurrect "Colt" since that's what we used to call the smallest Mitsu offering here.
