Lyon's Fernando Marcal was adjudged to have handled the ball and was given a second yellow for the offence, making the underdogs' task ever greater.
Mbappe took advantage of the extra man by scoring a dazzling second goal.
He won the ball deep in his own half and drove forward, breezing past two defenders before finishing in the bottom corner.
Pablo Sarabia rubbed salt in Lyon's wounds with a fourth from close range - his seventh in the competition this season - before Mbappe rounded it off with another goal in stoppage time, During the match, a fan ran on to he pitch wearing Chelsea tracksuits and took a selfie with superstar Neymar.
PSG will face the winners of St-Etienne or Rennes, who play on Thursday night, in the final.
It could mean a repeat of last year's final where Rennes shocked Thomas Tuchel's men to wrench the cup from them after PSG had won it four years in a row.
