Overview
The Mitsubishi Eclipse is a legendary moniker that is resurrected by the Japanese manufacturer for the 2018 model year. But much to the dismay of enthusiasts, the name now represents a practical crossover that ticks all the boxes that a family needs but none that an enthusiast demands. The 2018 Mitsubishi Eclipse Cross might not be a coupe from the 90s but is a peppy pint-sized offering that joins the Outlander in the stable.
The crossover gets a very distinct styling that attracts a lot of eyeballs and the turbocharged engine is a charm in itself. The interior gets a clean design that appeals to the masses, while the cabin remains spacious and fulfilling. The pricing sits aptly for the lower trims with an MSRP of $23,300 but as the trims further, the competition falls against the likes of the Honda CR-V, the Hyundai Santa Fe, and the Nissan Rogue Sport. Let’s see how well the resurrected badge fares against its rivals.
