If you expect the 2024 Mitsubishi Eclipse to be coming back as this powerful sport coupe, be ready to be disappointed. You can expect the Eclipse Cross, but it is just a small SUV with just enough (and decent) powertrain to get you going around. It’s true that the Eclipse has this reputation as a punchy sporty coupe with impressive performance, but that model has been long gone. The ‘replacement’; the Eclipse Cross can’t meet up the standard.
About Eclipse Cross
From the look of it, the Eclipse Cross may look promising. With good looking rear end and stylish bold design, the vehicle looks promising, but it’s just a small SUV with just enough punch. One of the reasons why the Eclipse Cross isn’t so up to its predecessor is because of the powertrain. It’s only offered with one engine: the turbocharged unit with 1.5 liter capacity, delivering 152 hp. It’s paired up with CVT and all wheel driving system. It’s good, but just enough for the busy urban setting.
The Interior Cabin
One of the winning traits of the crossover is the cabin. It’s super quiet, especially on the road. It also offers soothing riding experience. Not to mention that it has sophisticated features and high end safe drive assist that is meant to boost performance and abilities. The space is also convenient and nice, with also nice cargo capacity. Expect improved entertainment and also touchscreen system. along modern navigation system, Android Auto/Apple CarPlay, and others.
The Facelift Concern
From the exterior appearance, you can see that Eclipse Cross has a pretty contemporary and modern style. It’s a worthy competitor when compared to other similar models in its class. You can expect the new Eclipse Cross to have better and more aesthetic visual appearance from year to year. The Eclipse Cross had experienced updated front fascia with new fog lights and also improved headlights. But you may not experience such a thing for the 2024 model.
Powertrain and Performance
The basic powertrain of 2024 Mitsubishi Eclipse would be a four cylinder turbocharged unit, which is meant as the standard. It is able to reach 60 mph with 8.6 seconds. It’s matched up with CVT gearbox, delivering quite effective power distribution. The vehicle has quite surprisingly quite noiseless cabin that is just pleasant and comfortable. Even during (hard) throttle, it’s not as noisy as you may worry about. And because the suspension has been tweaked, you shouldn’t have to worry about turns and corners. You can tackle them quite conveniently.
