2024 Mitsubishi Eclipse Cross Consumer Reviews
Pricing
Waste of money for sure
The car lurches forward at 10:20 and 30 mph jerks back and forth it's brand new with 20,000 miles on it and hasn't towed anything it's a worthless piece of garbage. It has no power what's so ever and when starting from a dead stop it drops the rpm so severely that you really have to step on the gas to get it to move. There are way better suvs out there at a better price.

nice in the day, death trap at night
The 2024 Eclipse Cross is comfortable, drives well, and is decent on gas but Mitsubishi has failed on a few aspects. The minor issues are the poor quality of the backup camera. Replacing the manufacturer installed with a cheap generic camera would be a step up as the installed camera makes it look like your reversing in stop-motion animation. Second is the sound system. The installed system is reminiscent of early 90’s Audiovox or Radio Shack speakers. The real problem with this year and model is the headlights. The headlights only illuminated the road for 25 to 30 feet while failing to illuminate above road level, and the lights are non-adjustable. There are sensors in the lights that cast distracting shadows at the top of the illuminated area as well. The brights setting solves the issue but the auto brights turn themselves off when there are reflective signs such as speed limit signs on the road, or if going uphill. Because of these lighting issues this year and model it is incredibly unsafe to drive after sunset. I emailed Mitsubishi to inquire about this issue a few times, but Mitsubishi has not deemed me worthy of a response. If you don’t enjoy music or night driving safety this is a nice car. If you drive at night, I strongly recommend skipping this model. UPDATE For months the traction control light and power drops off when I go over speed bumps and the rpm's spike to 5500 and maintains 20-30 mph when I pull into traffic for about a half mile. I then need to pull onto the side of the road, put the car in park, and back I to gear before trying g to pull out again. I alerted Mitsubishi Motors customer support several times and they continue to not respond. They sold me a lemon and don't care. I feel the us should dissalow the sale of these cars until Mitsubishi motors decides to stand behind their product. Unfortunately their company has become a joke without humor. Buy any other brand car and save yourself time and money on these pos's.

Ralliart gets noticed
Test drive and decide for yourself. I think some of these reviews are written by some brain dead people that don't drive the actual car but go off specs or other reviews. The car is not coming off the line like fast and furious, if you're looking for eclipse of old this is not it. This is a redesign from the ground up, the ride is smooth, gas milage is about average, the interior is a little dated. I came from a truck that got about 12 to 15 mpg so this is a game changer for me. cruise control, auto windows, seat warmers, all these are nice. It's not going from 0-60in 4.2 secs, you may need to double that time, more like 8 to 10 secs (I timed it in real life). It does have some pip to it and delivers a smooth ride. It's comfortable and I'm 6'2". The back seats fold down for extra storage. The car is comparable to any other small SUV, it's not the best and it's not the worst. If I had to grade this car I would give it an 88. It could stand for some improvement in areas such as more power, update interior but nothing that makes the car not worth buying. I did get 2023 Eclipse Ralliart Edition, it gets noticed and I get compliments all the time.
