The Eclipse Cross is certainly a solid model in the class. Car and Driver reports that its small turbocharged four-cylinder has just enough of a kick to get it moving, while the suspension gives a comfortable ride, making it best suited for city driving. Combining that with the solid fuel economy all makes for a solid package.
As far as new additions go, rear seat alert is now standard across the lineup. Additionally, the SE trim's Black Edition package has a newly revised front lip and rear spoiler, set to both improve handling and performance, while improving airflow in equal measure for better fuel economy. As for pricing, the Mitsubishi Eclipse Cross starts at an MSRP of $28,205 for the ES trim, and goes up to $33,400 depending on the trim and options.
- ES - $28,205
- LE - $30,070
- SE - $31,120
- SEL - $32,520
If you’re looking for the best bang for your buck, the SE model is all that and more. Keyless entry, driver-assistance features, and dual-zone automatic climate control are just a few of the features that you gain access to for only a slight uptick in price over the LE and ES models.
The Eclipse Cross has an incredible warranty, providing better corrosion protection and more generous roadside assistance than their rivals. Their limited warranty covers five years or 60,000 miles, while the powertrain warranty covers 10 years or 100,000 miles, which is complemented by complimentary maintenance, which is covered for two years or 30,000 miles.
