In the same way the new Outlander has been revised from top to bottom, the Eclipse Cross has received significant attention paid to the front, side and rear exterior design, as well as the interior cabin experience. And it is an excellent step forward that pays significant rewards for the driver and all passengers. The 2022 Eclipse Cross is available in four trim levels starting with the ES, SE, SEL and the range-topping GT. Mitsubishi Motors’ exceptional S-AWC (Super All Wheel Control) system is standard across all trims. Powertrain: Powering the new Eclipse Cross is a 1.5L direct injection turbocharged 4-cylinder engine matched to a CVT transmission with sport mode. It delivers a robust 152 horsepower at 5,500 rpm and 184 pound-feet of torque at 2,000-3,000 rpm. Steering wheel mounted paddle-shifters allow for up and down selection through 8 gear ratios for added control and performance.
In real world terms, the Eclipse Cross is equally capable around town where short bursts of acceleration may be required in stop and go traffic, or cruising on the highway between large cities on your way to the office, or taking that long-awaited cross country family trip with bags and pets along for the ride. Braking is quick and controlled with ventilated front and solid rear disc brakes, plus anti-lock brakes that include Electronic Brakeforce Distribution (EBD) paired with S-AWC. In heavy-braking situations, ABS allows the wheel to keep turning and not lock, so braking power is maintained and stops happen quickly and controlled on all road surfaces. The Eclipse Cross is perfectly suited for the rigors of driving in all four seasons in Canada. Exterior: New is an elegant way of understating just how much thought and design has gone into the 2022 Eclipse Cross. For starters, the front dynamic shield design features available sophisticated LED
