Mitsubishi Eclipse Cross FULL REVIEW new SUV - Autogefühl

[@johnwilliam8366]

Another OUTSTANDING video narrated by Thomas, who gives us the best Auto car reviews...

[@KP56SS]

Excellent car, has good power and good height, the rear lights look super at night, extremely well priced imo.

[@whatevernevermind5960]

Good step in the right direction for Mitsubishi. I just wanna new Pajero, Eclipse & Lancer

[@carlosandleon]

@DroidTech I think Mitsubishi has to stick with SUVs.

[@rajanrai732]

Good informative review. Very objective, you sure know your cars!

[@zestor2908]

It is really cool that you say the things which are not so good, that makes you review better!

[@autogefuehl]

in your service !

[@samfish5500]

I went to see it today at the dealer... Really need to get one. I love Mitsubishi and this car is really attractive to me. Drove it.. not as fun as my Pajero, but still good enough. ( I have a 2008 Pajero that I can't bring with me abroad in my scholarship)

[@autogefuehl]

Thanks for the feedback!

[@ΠΑΝΑΓΙΩΤΗΣΤ-γ1ξ]

Maybe you can hang something small like a toy or an air freshener from the interior rear view mirror so we can see/feel (if I can say so) the tilting of the cars and the g-forces.

[@johnmorgan1629]

You could see the suspension effect, through the camera shake. Got the impression of a bit of tin can acoustics, plus there seemed to be a lot rattle, which can only imagine would get worse over time. Saw one in a showroom, though the styling was bit hit and miss, personally wouldn't put me off, though cannot put my finger on it the interior looked a little thrown together, not in the quality of material, just final touches. Yet another good review Thomas, vielen dank.

[@autogefuehl]

Thanks 🙏

[@lulolee5325]

It measures faster than 10 sek... all testers noticed ~ 9,1 sec acceleration, that's why it feels more powerful, because it's more powerful...

[@shabasik7575]

Thank you best reviews on youtube

[@katecarz]

Before watching the review , I am thanking you thomas for your efforts , before even requesting for this car review...I found out that you have reviewed it 👏👌 my regards from Egypt

[@autogefuehl]

thanks so much !

[@lionelmoussault9617]

Great and honest review Thomas 👍

[@autogefuehl]

thanks pal !

[@Grant0610]

It was so funny when you mentioned the echoes when the T6 overtook as I have a Caravelle with voice accentuator and it echoes weirdly too even when you think it is off! It is quite off-putting. I love the rear end of this. Makes it much more interesting to look at than all the VW clones and the Renault/ Nissan clones! They all look so much the same. I like the looks. Not sure about the gearboxes though.

[@mannyechaluce3814]

Another Wonderful review by Thomas :D cool sneaks

[@autogefuehl]

see video description :)

[@Mgoblagulkablong]

The base version makes a lot more sense, with the same 163 hp engine it is offered for under 18.000 € in germany thanks to discounts.

[@beaviccoon470]

The thing I like about most crossovers is that they can do at least a bit of offroad , unlike the fake suvs

[@MikeStoddart]

If it beeps when you start the engine, it could be because you're not wearing the seatbelt.

[@karamich75]

Thank you Thomas for another detailed review. I have the Outlander 2016 and most of the weak things in the Eclipse you mentioned in this review surprised me because I thought by this time, they should have fixed them... For instance the turning indicator lever is indeed cheap and in my 2016 Outlander you feel exactly what you described, as if we broke the lever all together... The suspension is stiff too and the worst thing in my Outlander is the driving sensation that is indeed weak. Handling is not great at all with the artificial steering that lacks the linearity and feel. It does not project stability and safe feeling on high speed as you said. Not well tuned at all like for example the Subarus that are way better in terms of handling... And when I took the Outlander off road on some moderate unpaved trails, the SUV does not give the sensation of a solid and composed one at all... Feels as if it is going to lose a part or two. Anyways, my Outlander is a great deal for a family and has a good AWD system for our Canadian winter but I am surprised to see Mitsubishi could not finetune these frustrating weak things yet. Cheers

[@autogefuehl]

thanks for the feedback !

[@creosl]

great reviews

[@milannair9830]

U have great dressing sense Thomas. Always ur dress matches the car u review.

[@GeordiLaForgery]

Great review, thanks.

[@db60615]

I absolutely love Mitsubishi, but I dont know why on earth they used the iconic Eclipse name for this SUV! This could've easily been the redesign for the Outlander sport, and it would've sold like hotcakes. It's really a nice suv, and the front design is superb! I just think people hate this vehicle because it's the furthest thing from the Eclipse that they've known to love.

[@Roxus3]

Hi! It is my experience that between 1800-2000 rpm, a strong vibrating sound occurs at a higher throttle. For 1-2 seconds it sounds like a diesel engine. What causes this sound? 1.5t manual. Thank you.

[@reinhartZero]

Great review Thomas thanks very. I prefer the ASX even is a little older the price of the eclipse Cross is to high in the market of my country the ASX is more affordable.

[@mariododik88]

What the fffunction of design?! Hahahaha 😂😂😂👌 great review Thomas!

[@autogefuehl]

=)

[@germangutierrez5910]

All those bips and bongs would drive me crazy. Don't like the split back window, looks weird to me. Great video as usual.

[@StealthParrot]

Not a fan of the split rear window at all and seems like they have some quality issues to work out. This is not a vehicle for me. However, one good thing about Mitsubishi which seems better than most, at least here in Canada is the warranty. They come with a standard 5-year/100,000 km warranty, 10-year/160,000 km powertrain warranty, 5-year/100,000 km accessory warranty and 5-year/Unlimited km Roadside Assistance. Thanks for another great unbiased review Thomas.

[@autogefuehl]

👌

[@kamata93]

02:47 Thats a nice Honda Civic 9th gen copy :D. Seriously, the front end is amazing, the back end...not so much. Overall, really nice car.

[@rifat_yilmaz]

Unfortunately in Turkey we have manual transmission only with base trim level and 2WD. It is such a sporty car that it grips even with 215/70/16 Dunlop Enasaves.

[@1beck2en3ham]

I like the design,even the back. Mitsubishi is famous for handling lovers. I'm surprise that Thomas is not happy with Eclipse X' suspension. In Thailand Pajero Sport and Lancer EX have a good handling and comfortable suspension. I hope Eclipse X that will come to Thailand next year will have a good suspension.I also hate the gear lever and touch pad.

[@batulaut]

Maybe can re-valve the suspension to make it more comfortable. I agree such a car should not be sporty to drive because it is not the priority, but just nice to drive is OK.

[@georgiminkov2298]

Great review Thomas. How would you compare with VW t-roc? Which is better drive and overall experience?

[@autogefuehl]

Thanks! Seen our TRoc review? I think it becomes quite clear then

[@alexsoare5621]

We are having a whole discussion in the family for a new car. We are basically down to two options. Mitsubishi Eclipse Cross and Peugeot 3008. What would you recommend?

[@autogefuehl]

Best to compare our 3008 review!

[@autogefuehl]

kzbin.info/www/bejne/o4eUpphpo9yUodk kzbin.info/www/bejne/nHmummp3Z553rtE

[@1976gerbel]

Mitsu has great prices in Germany 👍

[@bongsufan871]

Peugeot

[@gogutzy]

Would get the diesel (l200 and delica) engine with the 8 speed aisin and s-awc torque vectoring diff. Add to that the 1800 kg weight and you have a great recipe for mechanical grip.

[@m.henawy]

did you happen to try the 1.6 GDI (None turbo ) ? comparing it with the eclipse

[@wax333]

the way you shift gears i find it odd lol. it seems really rough. like your ready to drag race lol.

[@lash9400]

I always look forward to reviews from Autogefuhl your team is first rate but where is Katrina ? The Eclipse Cross looks alright but I'm underwhelmed by it. Its not bringing anything new to the class. I've owned Mitsubishi's in the past but I'm disappointed with their current range and can't see myself buying anything from them...

[@ReaperChi3f]

I remember when you reviewed the Subaru XV that I asked you to compare it to the Eclipse. So, how do the 2 stack against each other? Talking about the top spec versions.

[@autogefuehl]

hm, the XV feels more refined to me, however the use of available room is quite nice in the Eclipse. Both didnt entirely convince me though

[@ReaperChi3f]

Autogefühl yeah.. I mean, for the same money you can get a very nicely equipped Tucson or Sportage which are way bigger or if you want something stylish and in the same segment, the T-Roc is the way to go.

[@patka9196]

Have you ever considered, loading up in 4k? I guess many people arw watching on their 1440p Mobile Phones or 4k TVs

[@autogefuehl]

sure - if German bandwidth would be catching up. But we re developing country in that respect

[@cdrick94]

It surprising because we don't have Manuel transmission on this car in Canada :/

[@whatevernevermind5960]

Mitsubishi shouldn’t have used the legendary eclipse name

[@whatevernevermind5960]

Eclipse was a full on, fun to drive sports car & reviving the name & slapping it on a 1.5 liter crossover is just dumb. Could’ve called it the Montero cross or something else. Imagine a car company like Toyota putting the Supra or Celica name on a crossover.

[@niandra92]

Completely agree, what a shame. Mitsubishi are also bringing back the Evo...as an electric crossover type thing I believe.

[@Rebel.s197]

Hey Thomas, great review. I am complete anti-fan of the name first of all, of the back window split (bottom part will get dirty and with no way of cleaning it with a wiper you will have reduced visibility) and of the shiny black plastics. Thanks for proving a point in front of my best friend. I would like your personal opinion - for 80/20 city drive/mild offroad would you drive this or a Fiat 500X Trekking Plus? :) Cheers!

[@autogefuehl]

hey m8! tbh: neither.

[@puttaiyakumar5721]

Great answer Thomas! (by the way: fantastic Review of the Mitsi - so well presented and detailed as always. Many thanks).

[@Rebel.s197]

Neither works great, but then .. what would you go for in that segment (crossovers) and why? You've seen it all, driven it all - where would you put your money as an average buyer?

[@autogefuehl]

cheers !

[@j.mmachage831]

hey autogefuhl! why not have a pov camera whilst reviewing cars? it would be nice for us viewers and will also add you more subscribers as well as being relatively non expensive...just a thought on how to make the channel better.

[@autogefuehl]

hey John, we do POV in the driving part, or what u mean?

[@j.mmachage831]

check out AutoTopNL channel...kzbin.info/www/bejne/b2LZcmCLZtOin68.......its as if there is a camera on your head,its more interactive because everything you see,we see..maybe do just a section of the driving part..just a thought.

[@alfonsodriver1324]

Not sure about a camera stuck on a driver's head. I find that movements are too jerky and sudden. Sometimes shaky. I like Thomas's driving lounge where there is a fixed camera looking forward through the windscreen. We get a slightly better view of the driver, and we can make our own judgements of the surroundings in front of the car. Keep up the good work Thomas a Team.

[@mesuttasdemir4618]

Mitsubishi's CVT is not stay same RPM there is virual 8 gear by the way... Always shifting on high RPM's.

[@autogefuehl]

interesting, eager to find out

[@TubesWidener]

I think this 8-speed virtual cvt is introduced in 2019 models. It is (oil cooled) as per their specification in 2019 catalogue

[@ianmiller6698]

A unique looking car..

[@ghufrans6883]

nope at all

[@hb2088]

Mitsubishi still makes vehicles and sells them in the USA? I thought they were joining Suzuki, Isuzu, and Daewoo....

[@StoppschildTV]

Kanalname deutsch, Sprecher spricht englisch mit deutschem Akzent und der Verweis auf eine deutsche Webseite.... Warum sind dann die Videos nicht auch auf deutsch? 🤔

[@autogefuehl]

Als Service für Deutsche Zuschauer, die lieber (auch) auf Deutsch schauen möchten, haben wir hier nun angefangen, auch deutsche Videos zu produzieren: youtube.com/@AutogefuhlDeutsch-qp1ze?sub_confirmation=1

[@joshbacon8241]

I’ve always wondered what it means to ‘go full Mitsubishi’...

[@joshbacon8241]

Pedro I thought it meant to discontinue all the exciting models in your line-up to focus on SUV’s and crossovers, and even naming said SUV’s and crossovers after the exciting models that you used to have (i.e. Eclipse Cross is named after the old Mitsubishi Eclipse, Ford’s Mach 1 electric crossover is named after the Mach 1 Mustang)

[@carlosandleon]

@@joshbacon8241 yeah but to be fair Mitsubishi is an SUV marque. Even with their lancer legacy, I think Mitsubishi is more traditionally the offroad/ offroad style company. I for one can't wait for the lancer SUV. It just makes sense to carry over those old names into their new product lineup. Coupes and Sedans are no longer relevant. This is how you keep the name alive somewhat. At least until coupes and sedans are relevant again.

[@zendardino8999]

1more great reviews frome thomas 😘😘😘 greeting frome kurdistan

[@autogefuehl]

thanks =)

[@Moss994]

02:54 Hahaha Thomas! 😂😂

[@Grant0610]

I like this! Interesting to look at compared to a lot of the rather bland small crossovers from VW Group.

[@gordonbennett6057]

Sorry, couldn't live with that rough suspension - why do manufacturers fit such firm suspension to a road car - even Thomas said: "...car doesn't have to be that sporty!" It's not a racing car designed for the Nordschleife. That hard suspension will loosen pensioner's hips, and their fillings will drop out. At 18:50 - a 2CV - great car. Love the Driving Lounge, many thanks, as always, Thomas.

[@radar2205]

Hi Thomas! Please let me know from which dealer have you get the Eclipse Cross for review? I need to order a eclipse cross front hood badge. Thank you! Remus

[@autogefuehl]

we do get the vehicles directly from the manufacturers

[@radar2205]

Thank you for your answer! Is it possible to help me with a contact or somehow to purchase an "eclipse cross" hood emblem? Thank you a lot! Remus

[@autogefuehl]

you usually ask your nearest dealer for that

[@WilliMar36]

I had an outlander as a company car so tested the eclipse at launch for our private vehicle. Wanted auto but very disappointed with the CVT. The 1.5 manual is a peach. Very eager and a good fit for the car. The boot is a huge disappointment. They need to learn from the Honda HRV.

[@a.k.6190]

Warum auf englisch? Er fährt doch durch Essen Bredeney und nicht durch London...🤷🏼‍♀️🤨

[@autogefuehl]

International audience. Fuer deutsch Autogefuehl.de

[@1976gerbel]

Man möchte halt mehr Leute ansprechen. Nur Deutsche anzusprechen scheint wohl nicht mehr zu reichen 🤷‍♂️. Wahrscheinlich verdient man auch damit mehr 😉. Ich persönlich bevorzuge Deutsche Berichte von Deutschen in Deutschland gedreht 😁. Man hätte ja auch englische Untertitel machen können. Aber so kann man sich zumindest über den schrecklichen Akzent beömmeln 😂

[@jordanbaldi2832]

Can you review the Toyota i-Road!? Thanks

[@numb5r]

what the FFFF....... Function XDDDDD

[@alexryusandi]

When you gotta be honest but still family friendly XD

[@autogefuehl]

=)

[@dr.ehabelfarra2264]

Yeah true...we all said "WTF"!!!! the first time we saw its rear design.. 😂😂😂

[@Nara-kun]

Well, this is clearly not the type of Eclipse seen in the Fast & Furious movie! ;D

[@mesuttasdemir4618]

Something missing back seats moving 20 cm front and rear

[@autogefuehl]

oh thanks i ll check that

[@user-uq7io2os3r]

Hi Great review👍 Any chance for new Pajero/Shogun sport SUV review?

[@autogefuehl]

thanks! That would come close to the L200 which is the pickup version of that car: kzbin.info/www/bejne/hYCsYntvecmkack

[@user-uq7io2os3r]

Autogefühl Does L200 have 2.4 mivec Diesel engine? plus as far as I remember l200 have leafsprings suspension so not really design for any handling/ride comfort like (full size Pajero 3.2 )with full independent suspension setup.From what I know old l200 2.5 td DiD diesel was really not reliable in long term don't know much about this 2.4 mivec commonrail injection engine but have mine doubts about it..Many thanks for reply and any info about 2.4 mivec engine is that MMC in house design motor like 3.2?

[@autogefuehl]

yeah the L200 has a offroad setup with different suspension afaik. About the engine, gotta check wikipedia for that

[@krisht1613]

What the fffffffffffff function...😀😀😀Thomas and Mat Watson my favourite

[@pradeepmagan6951]

Good reviews but you like all the other reviewers do not do a moose test - why not

[@autogefuehl]

you mean a real one where you could potentially flip over?

[@richardtan1354]

I like just book it with cc Willy Wong ,good buy.

[@hyri3188]

Poor Eclipse, it's supposed to be a 2 door Coupé sport car :(

[@nevarran]

Hah, I was thinking the same thing. They're probably going full FIAT, where soon everything will be named 500.

[@desroin]

I was shocked when I noticed Mitsubishi is not even making the Lancer anymore... they have one small car and all the others are SUVs and Pickups :(

[@hyri3188]

DesRoin They still make Lancers, but they are now SUVs and not sedans, and the Evolution (Evo) model died :(

[@desroin]

That's no Lancer then :'(

[@hyri3188]

DesRoin yep, the new Lancer is no longer a Lancer

[@WYXYXYW]

Happy Sunday! I really don't know how they can come out with such a shape after all the time put! In my opinion, the car is not beautiful as shape model, sure they are good cars on the engineering side, but man! Lol :))))

[@WYXYXYW]

Cool review like always Thomas, the location choice, your polite attitude all of you as one team, and the great detailing in your explanations about each car so you really make the decision so easy to us to take, for buying the car or to just appreciating it and get full info about it as cars lovers! ☺

[@autogefuehl]

happy sunday as well !

[@teza8849]

I don't like the design at all. Looks weird. Only the side profile is ok. The interior with piano black - not my taste. Anyway, the review is top level as always :)

[@autogefuehl]

🙏

[@daniely30]

Rear looks like pontiac aztek

[@MajorKlanga]

It's hard to see any compelling reasons to like this car.

[@hman1]

Wow! This car loves to beep. Thankfully you didn’t, Thomas, at it 😉

[@kramers]

OMG you said "Full Length" and not "Full Lengss" ...I'm almost a little disappointed :/

[@Nk-iw2kd]

This Suv is good. But only it should have normal 6 speed auto instead of CVT gearbox. CVT spoils the full experience

[@mannyechaluce3814]

remind me of the AZTEC design in the rear

[@geraldsitorus]

seriously expensive (here in NL) for something that doesnt look expensive.

[@vq37zu]

absolutely hate the beeping sounds when clicking buttons or using the infotainment. It's constantly telling you you're an idiot for clicking something too much.

[@whatevernevermind5960]

Surely the screen has more than Apple CarPlay?

[@ReaperChi3f]

Yeah.. there is Android Auto as well..

[@akramkour1015]

Thomas great video I do not like the Mitsubishi ride badly and too small

[@autogefuehl]

thanks !

[@keino111689]

Yeah when I first saw this I was thinking what the fffffffffffunction of design too.

[@worldolivier]

A quirky SUV with reliability... Why not. But the driving doesn't look that good as 3008 or Cx5.

[@mesuttasdemir4618]

Yes yes yes...

[@emiliofernandez7117]

Why did Mitsubitshit use this legendary name for a crossover smh

[@Harrythehun]

Thomas you are a real pro. You work hard to find the positive details in a fugly plasticky lousy car.

To this day, IMO the only company from Japan that makes nice looking cars is mazda.

[@wullymoore4006]

get over the beeping its a seat belt reminder loads of cars have it

Yeah this has as much of Eclipse in it as a soy steak has actual steak. Mitsubishi just wants to kill this name.

[@lulolee5325]

Fu... SUV... C class hatchback would have been really cool...

[@chathuradsilva]

02:55 😂😂🤬🤬

[@igheng]

don't buy mitsubishi...i've owned two and they breaks down all the time. bought them brand new with 10 year warranty. They won't fix them under the warranty....it's a sham...you'll need to spend your money on lawyers to have these guys fix their garbage. I've lost soo much sleep and money over this situation. Don't be me.

[@jdmjimmy]

I hope it gets discontinued

[@ast5515]

I normally like cars that look different than the "norm". But the side profile and the rear end of this car is just ugly. The falling roofline makes much worse.

[@sabretoothz3]

HAH! What the ff... functional design this is..

[@tarassu]

Crap vehicle. it doesn't have even 48V system. It's a city vehicle with maximum emissions... let's be honest. Not interested.

[@ringslangetje]

Then pull out your stupid boat by hand

[@ageofline]

what theFFFFFunction

[@askaribr1]

japanese cars do not care about being comfortable cars and that is annoying. it is not fun and painful in my back and my neck. i can't stand any TOYOTA or MITSUBISHI or Mazda anymore......... i can go for Nissan only cus i feel comfortable

What the ffffunctual....
