The 2013 Mitsubishi Lancer is a sporty alternative to conventional economy sedans, although it lacks the refinement and fuel economy that most shoppers are looking for.

• Pros

• What's New for 2013

For 2013 the Mitsubishi Lancer sees just a few minor changes for the SE trim level, the most notable being standard mounts for the Thule roof rack.
