Pour one out for the Mirage sedan (Canada)

(2017 G4 from thread: Darin's test drive review notes: 2017 Mitsubishi Mirage G4 sedan 1.2L CVT)

Mitsubishi Canada confirmed today the G4 sedan is gone after this model year. The hatchback will carry on.


Confirmed: G4 discontinued/cancelled in Canada - hatchback to continue


I always thought it was strange that the G4 came to Canada in the first place -- the Canadian market generally prefers its small cars to be hatchbacks, not sedans.

It's generally opposite to the U.S. situation, eg: The Nissan Micra completely replaced the Versa sedan here. Meanwhile in the States, the Versa is available as a sedan only from 2020 on. The U.S. Hyundai Accent is sedan only; here it's hatchback only. There are more examples I can't think of right now....

Only about 20% of Mirage sales in Canada were the sedan last year. ~400.

I wonder what the U.S. sales split is.
