2019 Mitsubishi Eclipse Cross ES 4dr SUV AWD (1.5L 4cyl Turbo CVT)

First of all, this review is for the ES model. It has some very important differences from all the other models. It's the basic model with a manual hand brake and 16" wheels. All other models have the electric emergency brake and 18" wheels. This is important to remember because all of the "expert" reviews I have watched or read always test the more expensive models. Having 18" rims with tires that equal rubber bands negatively effects ride quality and all off-road capability. If you're going to use this little crossover for anything other than maintained gravel roads or just getting to work in deep snow, you should most likely get the ES. My Eclipse Cross with 215/75/16 Yokohama Geolandar A/T tires have enough sidewall to actually conform to rough terrain and soften out the bumps. Being a devoted Subaru fanboy, I really had my doubts about the AWD in this Mitsubishi. But I am truly impressed with it's capability. My wife and I have taken this thing where, in all honesty, we should have had a true 4WD with a rear locker. Even up on 3 wheels it still keeps going. Remember, I have all terrain tires that I can air down for more traction. An Eclipse Cross with 18" wheels and all weather radials would never dream of following us. You CANNOT get an Eclipse Cross with the electric E-brake and put anything smaller than 17" wheels on it! Smaller diameter wheels won't clear the E-brake mechanism. Fuel mileage: Highway mileage is not all that impressive. In Eco mode, barely touching the accelerator, I can squeeze 29.8 mpg out of it. What's nice though is back rough roads and trails where were always in a low gear ratio I still get over 26. I find the motor to be zippy and the power more than enough. It's very comparable to our 07 2.5 Automatic Impreza. You won't blow anybody's mind with speed, but it will pass the people in the slow lane safely, even up hill So, why only 4 stars? It's because of the cvt transmission. It's the same brand used in Nissan and other cars. They're definitely not known for longevity. That being said, for some reason Mitsubishi hasn't had the problems with them others have. There are many Outlanders out there approaching 200k on an original cvt which is the same one used in the Eclipse Cross. Fingers crossed! Hopefully this transmission won't turn out to be a pile of crap. I would definitely recommend this car to someone who understands what is is. It's NOT a sports car, a rock crawler, or something you want to tow with. If you want something with unique styling, more power than other compact cuvs that you can take camping and have some fun doing some mild off-roading (better known as soft roading) then get one. Just keep in mind what I mentioned about what makes the ES model unique.

A good small SUV. The ride is actually not as bad as advertised. I drove the care on mountain highway, and it held up pretty well, no rolling. I enjoy driving this vehicle. Front seats are very comfortable, and mold well to my body. Rear seats are sort of raised, and comfy as well. Visibility is good, although split rear windsheald / window take some adjusting to. I like the design of the vehicle. Quality of the materials used is above average. Small 1.5 litre turbo engine is peppy. It is not super fast and powerful engine, but it is more than enough. Overall, a great vehicle from Mitsubishi, and definitely an upgrade from RVR.

Love this car we bought 1 year ago, however, there are some features that you would think would be included with its vehicle as most cars get these as standard. 1. auto-lock when your driving 5mph or more 2. light in the glove box 3. button to open tailgate 4. lights on the bottom of the doors 5. Bluetooth while on phone only comes out of 1 speaker 6. Ride is rough If this SUV had the above I would have given a 5 star. We do like this SUV a lot. I would recommend buying.

I bought a little over a year and ago and it’s already having transmission issues. It starts out my just a little jerking. Had transmission flushed n new put in. The issue persisted and now my car won’t move in drive or reverse. So now I’m going to have to put a lot of money into a car I bought 1 1/2 ago with 12,000 miles on it. I bought it used and it had not been in a accident as I was told. I. Can’t just take it in and get something else because I will flip way too much over. I’m so aggravated I will never buy a Mitsubishi again and will not recommend to anyone.
Very nice vehicle after 2 years of commuting
