The all-new Mitsubishi Eclipse Cross crossover will launch in the United Kingdom from January 2018 sporting a reasonable price tag. Starting at £21,275, the Eclipse Cross can add affordability to the list of the thing that potentially make it a hit crossover, along with unique looks and above average off-road-ability.
Manual, automatic, two and four-wheel-drive are among the options you can choose when presented with the specs sheet at the dealership. Where you don’t have any choice, at least in the beginning, is the engine department where the only offer is a 1.5-litre turbocharged petrol engine developing 163hp and 250Nm of torque. Still, it’s a decent unit and when paired with Mitsubishi’s Super All-wheel Control (S-AWC) system that offers a choice of three advanced drive modes (Auto, Snow and Gravel) it should be pretty capable, too.
