Quirks Add Up

At first glance this is a relatively attractive and well priced vehicle in its class. Lots of creature comforts and a strong suite of safety features on the upper trim levels. Then you drive it for awhile, and start to feel annoyed. Whether it is the cheap and tin like sounds the doors make upon closing, the grinding effort of opening the gas hatch, the road manners, the lack of dampening of road imperfections, or simply the near impossible task of opening windows using control buttons hidden behind an unnecessary door bar, the vehicle grinds the joy out of your purchase choice. For the love of all that is holy you can't even quickly mute the radio! You have to dial it down or up using the mouse pad behind the shifter or the steering wheel controls! The vehicle also has a terrible highway speed 'shimmy' at about 110km/h. I do not recommend this vehicle, and would suggest considering a RAV4 if money is not a concern, or the Mazda CX3.

Nice little SUV - Depends on your own criteria

10 000km later UPDATE Power barely sufficient. Very quiet ride. Fuel consumption on highway not so bad (32,6 mi./gal with Ecomode on). Excellent traction system (S-AWD, best on the market with Subaru). Interior ok, not more. Very uncomfortable seats. To narrow with unajustable lumbar support. Handling so so and quickly oversteer (from a former Volkswagen driver...). Powerful fog lights. CVT transmission is...well, you dont want to know. As I said, it depends on what you are focusing on when buying a car. For my own part,I like the look and the S-AWD, one of the best on the market if not the best. Otherwise, overall comfort and power are much perfectible and unfortunately, I would not buy again...

I have a 22 EC I believe it’s an SE. regardless I’m not sure what’s up with the negative comments from Edmunds. Weird I’ve been driving since 91 and have had quite a few vehicles in my day. This is my favourite. The handling is actually quite good and if you actually know how ti use the gear paddles on the steering wheel you can get more punch out of the engine when needed. I’ve had zero body roll and the mileage is great for an SUV. It has a lot of tech that’s easy to use. Question: do we actually need all these things? No. We like them but they’re not essential. My two biggest issues is the lack of wireless charging and ventilated back seats. It’s not exactly a small car so I think that’s something that needs addressing. My third issue is the placement of the heater and air conditioning. It’s out if reach for the driver and distracting to use. If it were higher in the stack it would make much better sense. I’m not sure why there’s so much love Hyundai and Kona. Research the recalls on these cars. Countless warranty issues and engine fires galore. Mitsubishi has a much better warranty and they are built like tanks.

Eclipse Cross

This car is the epitome of mediocre, and should be considered a very basic point a to point b kinda vehicle. Nothing stands out as overly impressive, but hey it’s cheap and it runs. What more can you ask for now a days?
