How much does a used Mitsubishi Lancer cost in Singapore?

Most used Mitsubishi Lancer on the market are around 9 years old, asking roughly S$18k–S$20k (typically about S$19k). That's the age with the widest choice — and the most sellers competing, so it's where you'll have the most room to bargain.

Is the Mitsubishi Lancer reliable?

In our read, the Mitsubishi Lancer scores 73 out of 100 on brand reliability. That still varies by generation and how the individual car was looked after, so always check the service history before you commit.

What should I expect to pay for a used Mitsubishi Lancer with a given mileage?

It depends on the exact variant, age and mileage — a higher-mileage car should ask less. Use the price modeller on this page to get a fair-price range for a specific age and mileage, so you know what to offer.

Where do these Mitsubishi Lancer figures come from?

They're worked out from current used-Mitsubishi Lancer listings in Singapore — asking prices, mileage and registration years — not past transaction prices. We refresh them regularly, and we flag thin data rather than guess.

Generation: Tap a generation (↓) to jump to its full breakdown below; the colour maps back to the timeline strip + legend above.
Price range: P75 → P25 of asking — the middle half of listings at that age sits inside this band. Outliers above and below excluded.
Down payment: MAS Notice 642 LTV cap applied to the age's median asking: 30% when OMV is up to S$20k, 40% above. Max loan tenure 7 years. Rows marked * mix both OMV buckets — we display the conservative 40% figure so the quote never under-states what a luxury-OMV listing at that age would actually require.
Availability: High when this age's listing share is ≥1.5× the model's uniform expectation, low when ≤0.6×, medium otherwise. Model-relative, so an evenly-spread model lands all-medium.

Brand reliability: Consumer-survey composite — JD Power · WhatCar · Consumer Reports. Same score for every variant of a given make.
Resale strength: 100 − 3× annualised tangible-decay (COE-stripped). Fitted from each variant's asking-price-by-age regression then averaged at model level.
Peer set: Every same-segment model with ≥5 active PARF listings whose variants fit a depreciation curve. Practicality isn't plotted — it's a body-shape constant within the segment, so it would be the same for every dot.
Quadrants: The crosshair marks the segment median on each axis. Top-right (Safe Bets) is strong on both; top-left (Hidden Gems) holds value above what the brand reputation suggests; bottom-right (Bargain Buys) is well-built but depreciates fast — buy cheap; bottom-left (High Risk) is soft on both.

Verdict

Long-lived Mitsubishi compact — 1.5L 4A91 / 1.6L 4B10 / 1.8L 4B11 / 2.0L 4B11 petrol engines + CVT. 4B11 family is generally reliable when serviced. Pre-2010 cars had the Jatco CVT with documented failure pattern (judder, slip past 100k km); post-2010 improved. Lancer EX / Evolution X (4B11T turbo) are cult buys for the rally heritage but rarely seen in SG. CY/CZ is now 8-18 years old — universal age items (suspension, AC, electronics) dominate over engine concerns. SG sees these as basic family + PHV transport.

Asking: S$17k–29k
Median: S$20k
Decay: —

What's good

Post-2010 build with documented CVT fluid service — pre-2010 cars carry the densest CVT failure cluster. Post-2010 builds + fluid service receipts at 60k km is the boring durable Lancer choice.
4B11 petrol with full service history — engine family is reliable when serviced; same family powers the Evo X turbo. A clean service trail at 8-18 years old is the durability signal.

What to watch

Pre-2010 Lancer with CVT shudder or whine on test drive — Jatco JF015/JF016 family failure cluster. CVT replacement S$4-7k locally; walk unless heavily discounted with quote in hand.
Heavy private-hire or commercial past — the Lancer's basic-transport role + low purchase price made it a SG PHV / runabout standard. PHV wear front-loads suspension + interior + body.

Verdict

Older-gen Mitsubishi Lancer — 1.6L 4G18 + 2.0L 4G63 / 4B11 + 2.4L 4G69 engine options. Lancer Evolution VIII / IX (4G63T turbo) is the cult performance trim from this era. CS chassis is now 17-22 years old — universal aged-car items dominate (suspension bushings, AC, electronics). SG market mostly sees these as cheap second-hand transport or PHV runabouts. 4G63 engine family is bulletproof when serviced. Steel-bodied parts may surface rust on SG-imported cars without rust-proofing.

Asking: S$19k–27k
Median: S$23k
Decay: —

What's good

4G63 / 4B11 2.0L with full service history — bulletproof engine family; same lineage as Evolution VIII/IX (4G63T) and 9th gen Lancer CY/CZ (4B11). A clean service trail at 17-22 years is the durability signal.
Documented rust-proofing or rust-free underbody inspection — at this age, the bodyshell durability matters as much as the powertrain. SG-imported cars without factory undercoat need cavity wax to survive the SG climate; receipt is the high-leverage paperwork.

What to watch

Cold-start chain rattle on a 4B11 engine — late-CS builds with 4B11 can show timing chain wear past 150k km if oil discipline was lax. S$3-5k locally for chain + tensioner; walk unless paperwork is in hand.
Visible underbody rust on a CS chassis at 17+ years — structural rust is the silent killer of older cars. Rear subframe + suspension mounts are the high-stakes areas; budget rust repair or walk on heavily affected examples.
