Mitsubishi Eclipse Cross (2018 to 2021)

Model reviewed: Black Connected
Score: 5 / 10
“In a class where there are so many talented options, the Mitsubishi Eclipse Cross Black Connected edition struggles to stand out. While it’s spacious inside, and the sliding rear seat bench adds to its practical appeal, there are simply too many compromises elsewhere.”

“Enthusiasts will probably find the drive a little frustrating, but families looking for a spacious, civilised and iconoclastic compact SUV now have a new contender to consider, from a brand with true 4×4-pedigree.”

“The Mitsubishi Eclipse Cross is an eye-catching family SUV with plenty of standard kit and some fairly spacious back seats but alternatives do feel much posher inside.”

“The Mitsubishi Eclipse Cross is a reasonably stylish SUV with a rugged edge that helps it stand out from numerous rivals that include cars such as the Skoda Karoq, Volkswagen Tiguan, SEAT Ateca, Peugeot 3008 and Toyota CH-R.”

“Where the Mitsubishi Eclipse Cross falls down is on the road. It’s not especially good to drive with too much lean in corners, a hard ride on models with bigger wheels and artificial feeling steering. It’s disappointing given how promising the rest of the car is.”

Model reviewed: 1.5-litre petrol manual 4
Score: 6 / 10
“A perfectly capable mid-size SUV with a good petrol engine and tidy handling, but the small boot stands out like a sore thumb in this hotly contested class, and the lack of satnav seems like an oversight too. If you can master pulling away smoothly, this manual version is a nicer car to drive than the CVT.”

“Nicely styled with a commodious cabin and well equipped (if confusing) facia, the Eclipse drives reasonably well, but it would drive better without that CVT transmission and a bit more concentration on the medium-speed dynamics.”

“A comfy, versatile crossover that looks distinctive enough to be recognisable in this crazily crowded market. Better to drive than the first impression suggests, but in the 4×4 you’ve got to fight your way past an obstructive CVT.”
