My sister just bought one of these and they have to be one of the best bang for your buck vehicles and have quite a bit of power for such a small engine

[madhardcorenick]

This is probably my favorite small SUV here why
- Great value for money
- Made in Japan
- Reasonably good on fuel
- Good amount of space for a small SUV
- I actually like the styling and doesn't look like a boring SUV
- Good amount of kit
- Reasonable performance

Here are some things Mitsubishi can improve upon though in the upcoming revision
- Rear air vents
- Could have the active safety features fitted on the LS as well as active cruise control
- Full size spare Tyre
- Infotainment unit (although I just use android auto, so no biggie in my case)

I've had this since 2 years. I enjoy driving this so much. Best buy for the money. The tiny turbo charged engine is powerful enough to overtake slow vehicles. I've got the AWD option just for peace of mind. So far trouble free.

Great review thumbs up please do a comparison of the Mitsubishi Eclipse Cross vs it's other competitors

[krystalcoats]

I love mine my hubby just brought me one and I absolutely love it smooth cat to drive and comfortable best car I have brought

[ahh]

This is not a bad little car for the kit you get at the price

No air vent at the back can be a bummer

[honestjoe]

Although driving a CVT is like listening to a whining mother-in-law, that can still be forgiven, but Mitsubishi’s really old school infotainment system makes the vehicle feel a decade old. A couple of USB or USB-C slots would go a long way. But i guess there is a market for old school especially at a discount.

no air vent in the back seat, why . absolutely ridiculous not to have them . very bad idea. 1.5 litre turbo, yukk

Wait, the Eclipse is an SUV now? Looks like I'll not thinking about Mitsubishi anymore.

[warcrabcyber]

Mitsubishi needs to redesign the back for anyone to take the eclipse cross seriously, the rear bumper needs to change, the original concept car for this looked amazing, and then Mitsubishi just messed everything up in the production model

Car Advice ??? You mean car advert for Mitsubishi - I believe.
4 minutes and 53 seconds of praise for a 2 year old car, minimal safety gear and a steering wheel and switchgear that date back to 2010 !!!
Or didn't you notice that ?
Seriously if you honestly believe that you are really giving us CAR ADVICE - then how about a real crack at it, including the good and bad.
Don't make it sound like an ad for Mitsubishi - you never know you may get some credibility as a car journalist.

Don't buy this car, My 2020 brand new one the Engine Check Light already on three times and technician could don't find problem.

I just can’t stand the rear on this SUV it’s so ugly

[XybrTeCh]

If you think carefully, the Eclipse Cross is actually a failure. Fail product because it is expensive, not as good as the competitors, just look the specs and pricing comparing to similar price tag small SUVs, take Kia Seltos, Hyundai Kona, Nissan Juke/Kick, Mazda CX-3/30, and Subaru XV for an overall comparison, the Eclipse Cross is absolutely garbage!
