[@gregv8970]

Picked up my 2021 Eclipse Cross Aspire on Tuesday after trading in my 2011 ASX Aspire. (BTW after nearly 10 years my ASX was still running like a dream), Main observations. Engine and steering are fantastic. Plenty of power and very responsive. Seats are comfortable but I am 190cms tall and mid console can be a little restrictive compared to the ASX which was much lower. Getting used to it though. Much more rear room compared to ASX though. Safety tech is great. Infotainment system is OK. If you change audio mode it kicks you out of Google maps and its two or three steps get back. I agree the tray for the phone is quite small. As for styling, I love both interior and exterior styling. The orange of the halogen headlights looks a bit dull though compared to the LED running and fog lights. The fact it uses 91 petrol as opposed to premium which many of its competitors need, has a 10 year warranty and fixed price servicing (with my dealer coming to me to service it) are all bonuses. I looked at all the competitors before I chose this one. All in all though I think this hits the sweet spot for me. Great car and for the price better than the competitors looking at it cumulatively

[@willis23jm1]

@@jaywilliams3625 yeah u would buy if the choice was between the 2... but if your shopping for suv u wouldn't... almost everyone who had an issue with older model just didn't like Mitsubishi's period. There's same or worst issue with another brand yet reviewers skip over. Yet makes stupid arguments. 1 was that the split window has less visibility when all along the lower half of the split was an additional view. Many other brand in the cross price range n higher has cheaper material... (this newer design has way more cheaper part). The larger screen as requested by none mitsubishi fans n reviewers makes no dam sense as it only increase in height n not width.. 16:9 way better than the now aspect ratio plus it was a way cleaner look without the knobs... 1 knob should be most place on an entertainment display. Complain about trunk space n I am yet to use a 1/4 of space in older model. ( if i need space i just buy a dam truck) Simply put the unique stand out characteristic that the original designer had is now taken away.... it has now becaomes the average suv on the road (especially the rear end) Only positive is the new front dimension are on parr n looks better yet still not by far. These changes though requested will not cause anybody who follow negative stigma of mitsubishi to purchase the cross ... mitsubishi should stick to its course as the cross was beginning to grow on people. Instead many present owners are disappointed with new design

[@MiggyMndza]

Great review! Agree on all of the points you've tackled but for me, I wouldn't be too bummed about the tech not being too advanced as the brand has always focused on keeping everything balanced and being on the functional side. Having this simpler tech would make a lot of people have a better time dealing with it and that for me is quite an advantage for most people. Hoping Mitsubishi Motors PH will also bring this in our market, the lack of a crossover is kind of a bummer given that they've focused more on the Xpander & Xpander Cross and the Montero(Pajero) Sport.

[@ShareFavourites33]

It was between the Seltos Sport and the Eclipse for me and honestly the Eclipse is so much sleeker. Although the Seltos drove very smoothly, the Eclipse was just punchier. I also found with the Seltos that although the ‘tech’ side had more to offer, it was almost too much.. too many things yelling at me and there was too much happening on the screen. The interior was also very boring. I think the GT line is probably nicer in the Seltos range, but even the base model for the Eclipse is beautiful and it’s 10k cheaper. End of the day, depends what you want but the new Eclipse is super nice in both affordability, style and drive.

[@ahmadsoyziya]

For us it is also between Seltos and Eclipse Cross. We want it for my dad. In the place we live, we have only one version in the saloon (2.0 engine, 2WD, without front row heating/cooling). I told my dad that "it doesn't have heated/cooled seats + no 2 zone climate + no panoramic roof as well, and he simply replied "so what ?" )) I agree with his points such as, today every car offers so much that we think we need them. He likes this car's view, comfort, ride experience and safety. What else is needed ?

[@samfish5500]

I love how Mitsubishi car looks, I love theri AWDs and I honestly see them lasting tads longer than competition. Sure they aren't luxurious inside, but they have rally vibes in how basic they look inside.

the best car reviewer on youtube, you are very good and your camera work is excellent

[@silverandgoldportugal]

Hello Paul, just subbed you. I have the eclipse cross for 2 years now. Love the car. Absolutly no problem untill now. This is the second most powerfull 1.5l in the martek (after Honda) . Very punchy and reletivly economical. It has direct and indiret injection. Because of this, there is no carbon acumulation (indirect). The oil is 0w20, very expensive, but the best for this kind of "small" turbo engine. I have the 6 speed manual with hand manual break. I like the tail gate of mine better because it is unique and has the back wipper hidden on top. The visibility is a little limited (but not to much). The interior is the best mitsubishi has to offer. Like i said, me and expecially the wife, love the car.

I purchased this new model, except the top model with 2 sunroofs and leather seats. Have been driving it now for a week and enjoying it. Your faults outlined are valid but overall its a great city car. I did my research and test drives on other cars in this range and found this one was the best for the following points: value for money, looks, ride,safety features and 10 year capped price servicing and warranty. The tech stuff you can get passed with the Android Auto which does what is supposed to.

[@chrisencelan4021]

Im thinking about trading my 2019 CX-5 for the 2022 Cross Over. What's the lowest mpg you ever had with yours? I like the idea of having a cup holder in the middle for the back seats. The infotainment doesn't matter to me because apple car play. The interior does the job well. If you ever drove the CX-5... is the cabin noise worse then the eclipse cross or pretty much the same?

[@truthandjustice6838]

Will take this anyday of the week. Just feels incredibly well built when you sit in it. Doing a lot of corrugated dirt roads in South Africa, comfort is front and centre for me. The Mazda and Kia have some of the worst comfort levels on dirt where the Mitsubishi just soaks it up. Excellent daily driver, and fantastic holiday cruiser for the money. Personally, quite like the unique looks of it too.

[@01tabuu]

Having driven the exceed s awc for 12 months now, i can confirm it's a great modern car. We are in our early sixties, and tbh simplicity is the attraction .Perfect size for us, and has never let us down with reliability issues with 18,000 klm on the clock. Exceed has HUD with digital speedo and cruise control info, a new feature to me which i like. Takes regular fuel, a little thirsty due to s awc. Love the twin sunroof front and skylight rear. The fact Mitsubishi has been very solid in Oz for over 50 years and the Eclipse Cross is manufactured in Japan and 10 year dealer service warranty was a no-brainer for us. Recommended to all, especially seniors .

[@olivier60951]

Just bought the update it is a super reliable car with great warranty and is good to drive if you do your homework its actually has very similar interior dimensions to the mazda cx5 and forester. Cheaper to buy , 1/2 the price of servicing over 5 years.

[@bransaint]

I bought a 2020 in July. In the US, Mitsubishi is trying to rebuild their brand and get out of a sales slump. As such, they are selling them much cheaper than the msrp. I mean my car payment is less than 300 a month for a brand new, well equipped SUV. Can't beat it when holding up against the competition, in that regard The warranty, the style, and the price make it a winner for me. I love my EC!

[@briantye110]

No rear air vents in 2020 in a family-ish SUV is a major disappointment a big deal breaker ! Design looks smart but looks like the tech needs to also come up to the competitors . Again a thorough review Paul cheers 👍

[@misteviousem]

I have driven a Lancer SX for the past 12 years & just clicked over to 335,000 km's. During this time she has never skipped a beat. Yes the tech is not over the top but I love that. It is easy to use & integrate & I know how to use the phone book function Paul was finding difficult, it is similar to my lancer now which couldn't be simpler. Since making the decision to upgrade, I have test drove a mixed bag of cars including a Skoda Karoq sportline, Mercedes Benz GLC 250, Kia Seltos GTLine, Hyundai Tuscon, Kia Sportage, a BMW X1 & of course my pick. Although I was tempted to purchase a "luxury" car, they are just too expensive to run & are often problematic, rendering my decision a no brainer. The eclipse cross drove beautifully & quiet & had plenty of grunt & get up ,& boogie when I needed it AND it looks great. In the end it was a no brainer for me & I absolutely CANNOT wait to pick up my special order Exceed. The 10 10 was just unbeatable & I know first hand just how good & reliable a car they are.

Found the rear airvents - they are located under the driver and passenger seats

[@User-cb4jm]

Yea... no. Every car has that, the so called "heating ducts" are useless and only work with the air set to feet and only if you are barefoot. We are talking about face level vents here on the back of the console like on an even smaller Hyundai i30 or Mazda3. Good luck getting much use from those foot vents when its been parked under the sun on a 35-40c day.

I recently drove one and I agree with everything you have said here. Tech is it's biggest downfall...horrible screen. However I did find the 1.5L turbo a really good engine for this price point. I prefer it to the N/A 2.0L normally found in the competitors (Seltos, CX-30).

[@tajminurrahman7381]

Mitshubishi claims the kmpl in highway 11.6 kmpl. How could you get 18 kmpl. I wonder if you have any tips.

[@largelampard3721]

@@tajminurrahman7381 The test seems odd to me that it got 15km/l at mid speed cruising and 11km/l at hight speed. But anyway, accelerate while going downhill and maintain speed while going uphill, if the momentum is enough to get over the hill I will let the speed drop. I seldom use brake, use gear to regulate the speed before corner and in traffic. Unless terrain requires or in a hurry, I don't get rpm over 1500, although it's cvt it still helps if you keep rpm low. I get better fuel efficiency than tested result in most cars. Also, be really gently while pushing the pedal whether it's throttle or brake.

I am in the USA and have a fully loaded 2019 Mitsubishi Eclipse Cross SEL Touring with S-AWC in Octane Blue. We also have another identical one in Red Diamond. They are loaded with a dual pano roof, leather, heated front seats, heated rear seats, heated steering wheel, 710 watt 9 speaker rockford fosgate audio system, power folding mirrors, remote start, sliding and reclining rear seats, led head and tail lights, power driver seat, auto dimming rear view mirror with home link, all the driver aids like forward collision warning and mitigation with pedestrian detection, lane departure warning, blind spot warning with lane change assist, rear cross traffic alert, auto high beams, radar cruise control, and much more! USA models have Mitsubishi Connect Telematics with sos and call center buttons in the car and a phone app to start the car, set interior temp and defrosters, adjust wiper settings, multiple vehicle controls, set geofencing, unlock and lock car, activate horn and lights, car finder, milage and travel info, car health info and much more from anywhere. I love my Eclipse Cross and my only complain would be on rough roads the ride can be a bit crashy. I know on the redesign (restyled) Eclipse Cross in the USA they re tuned the springs and shocks and added larger parts to rear suspension and am curious if this new one rides better than the 2018-2020 Eclipse Cross over large bumps. I do like the rear of my 2019 better as it was the main selling point for me and the reason I bought the car. But Americans people do not like the split rear style apparently and we know how picky us Americans are. So they got rid of it which sucks.

We also got it with a ten year unlimited km warranty and ten years of fixed price Mitsubishi servicing, which was probably the main thing that pushed us to choose this one instead of a competitor.

Subaru XV review soon?

[@iqbalhasanhasan7361]

Which one is better 2021or 2022 ???

[@LocoMe4u]

Hey I'm in Canada here and these tear through snow like it's their job. ( I drive the AWC full SUV Outlander 2.4L since 2009 it's a blast ) they now only fit the S-AWC to all models by default here X) You hold the steering straight while flooring it or, take a tight curve faster than you should or could, well don't worry this car has some of the best ESP systems, it can brake on one wheel at a time or more if needed ( smartly) while completely negating your throttle input and keeping compression ratios high, I've seen it a few times in action when i overcook a snowy corner and it's so neat and clever even my back wheel doens't got out of line or high the curb ( fast steering inputs will trigger it, so don't be afraid to maneuvre hard when you need to! it's a life saver) Plus I'm pretty sure 5 star safety from colision is a given with any models (7 airbags, mitsubishi crash sheild, auto engine shutoff and +)

Hi Paul !👋

[@CarExpertAus]

Hello :-D

[@stevensales7502]

I love Mitsubishi

[@odonsaller5238]

Looks a bit better then the previous one. Nice review!

[@Honnnnnnnnnnnn]

I didn't mind the split window design of the previous model (I drive a 9th gen Civic hatch with the same deal). But would gladly opt for this design for the better vision out back. I agree, the tech is probably the let down. I would be hard pressed, deciding between half a step up to a medium SUV like CX5, or half a step down to something like a Subaru XV with a full sized spare.

Looking forward to new Skoda Octavia review in the future.

Thanks for the review. The Eclipse Cross is overpriced in the current market. Particularly compared to the Seltos.

Hi did you do any ASX review..

[@nena_366]

Hi, Does this SUV come with a remote car starter? If not, can dealerships install it?

[@amrashraf9559]

Comparing this Mitsubishi to the subaru Xv, which is more solid and durable and handles better ?

[@andrewgreen215]

Just bought the LS, went out expecting to buy a Mazda CX 5 but also drove the Subaru xv and seltos, Subaru was a bit small but very underpowered but a nice drive, the seltos impressed me but the stereo was weak( do love my music loud) and the CX-5 was very nice but also underpowered and way overpriced, the Mitsubishi really wasn't on my radar so I drove it twice to get my head around it, great power, quiet and smooth plus the 10-year warranty and cap priced servicing... Just hope it's better than my sigma back in the day lol

[@BabyShark-cg3sz]

Cx5 underpowered? The 2.5 Naturally aspirated engine has 187HP. The Mitsubishi only has 152hp with a turbo.... The Mazda turbo has 250hp. So what are you talking about? I payed $24,525 for my CX-5.....

[@andrewgreen215]

@@BabyShark-cg3sz in Australia the base model Mazda has the 2 litre and costs $37,500 , the mitsubishi was $33,000 and is definitely more power, I'm guessing that you live in America?

@@BabyShark-cg3sz a couple of years ago the Mazda would have cost $33,000 but they have jacked their prices up a lot through covid, you can get the 2.5 litre in Australia but the price is way up there, the cx30 has terrible rear leg room but a nice car

Hi Paul. Can you please do a review on the 2021 Updated Toyota Fortuner :)

[@epaphrastychicus9229]

looks better than the last,though that transmission definitely spoils the fun

[@chefjerin]

which one is better nissan qashqai or mitsubishi asx, bro can you do a video or somebody help me , i am really confused which one to take

[@crvenazvezda3110]

Much better looking now.Enterior is good enough.This is not BMW,Audi,Mercedes,Lexus,so you can't expect luxury for this money.Acceptable.Exterior 8/10, enterior 6.5-7/10. Plug in hybrid version of this model anounced?
