I’ll never forgive mitsubishi for naming an suv after the eclipse

I absolutely agree 🤬 as former Eclipse owner (1994 ) they should have named it something else

Okay then! What about Ford naming an EV SUV after one of the most iconic muscle cars of all time, even lately also sportscar, and also even badging that thing with the Mustang emblem all around?

The eclipse cross power is competitive to most vehicles in this class , 0-100 in 8.76 You act as if the Chevy trax , kia seltos is much faster Even the kia sportage takes 8.8 seconds from 0-100 2024 crv 190hp 1.5 turbo takes 8.1 seconds from 0-100 The corolla cross takes 9 seconds to reach 100km and that is with no weight in the car. The mazda cx5 2.5 turbo takes 6.5 seconds to reach 100km despite making 250hp. car reviewers should actually use more data when comparing power of these vehicles.

[@danielzhang1916]

we rented the old Trax last year, it had enough power to get around, it's not trying to be a Mustang

[@warcrabcyber9908]

@danielzhang1916 the new trax actually gets 30mpg mixed city and highway , it's a 3 cylinder engine, that is pretty good for a crossover.

[@danielzhang1916]

@@warcrabcyber9908 3 cyl / turbo 4 cylinder is the future of cars, no more V6

[@Trades46]

Dare I say it, the 1.5T in the Eclipse feels more usable down low than the Rav4 2.5L non-hybrid motor. It also doesn't sound as gruff either, though the Toyota does get better MPG.

[@warcrabcyber9908]

@Trades46 there is actually a fuel economy test / channel on youtube and they did real world tests with the 2022 rav 4 model with the 2.5 engine, it actually gets around 25.4mpg with mixed driving vs 25 with the eclipse cross. The rav 4 strength is on highway only driving, some eclipse cross users with the 2wd models actually get 29mpg on the highway, the awd really sucks fuel. But if you live in a snow country the awd will make it superior in those conditions

[@davidvusich1603]

Call me crazy but I love the way this vehicle looks. I’d never buy one but the design is cool imo looks like a cooler Aztec

[@UhOhUmm]

@@blue_lancer_es Mitsubishi used to be on a Chrysler platform for years, not Japanese at all. Now they are on Renault/Nissan platform, also very little to do with Mitsubishi or Japan. They are using a dying brand name to move product instead of trying to create something.

[@blue_lancer_es]

@@UhOhUmm you have half a point. 70s. Dodge used mitsu cars. 80s. Same mitsu cars rebadged as dodges. Even dodge used some engines on their own cars. 90s. Yep... Same thing. Dsm was a joint venture. Were made in the US but most parts were from mitsu(not all) 2000s even thought DSM was no longer they still collaborated even partnering with hyundai to make the gema engine between the 3. Anyway it's a long topic. Yes now mitsubishi is a nissan Renault entity. But 70s 80s 90s 2000s they were the ones supplying Chrysler,not the other way around.

[@tealchief]

They also do bumper to bumper 10yr/120k for like 600 bucks (or at least they used to)
