The Eclipse Cross has reinvigorated the Mitsubishi lineup by introducing sporty, dynamic styling (with standard 18-inch wheels) and several modern technologies to put up a better fight in the hotly contested compact SUV segment. A seven-inch touchscreen stands tall atop the dashboard and a head-up display system is available. Mitsubishi's Super All-Wheel Control comes standard and distributes the 152 horsepower from the 1.5-litre turbocharged engine to all four wheels.
Still think Mitsubishi made a mistake by slotting a new model between the RVR and Outlander —and calling it Eclipse Cross —about four years ago? If you look at all the small crossovers that have hit the market recently, it now makes more sense. Of course, we would have preferred …

At death’s door only a few years ago (although cynics would say it’s been more like decades), the Mitsubishi brand seems to be trying to rise from the ashes. The fact that it was purchased by the Renault-Nissan group has improved its future prospects tremendously. While fans still haven’t gotten …

Back in May 2021 when Mitsubishi announced its intention to revive the Ralliart sub-brand, a part of us got excited.
