Mitsubishi Eclipse Cross SUV in-depth review - Carbuyer

Sponsored by peugeot

Got on rental,,wouldn't wait to hand keys back.

Cobblers review.

She already decided to hate this Mitsubishi before doing this review!! If you want a 4wd the 3008 is not even an option!!

Not a Mitsubishi Eclipse, the real Mitsubishi Eclipse was the sports car, they are using the name to try and gain sales, it's just a crappy SUV/ Crossover.

I hired one of these for 10 days on New Zealand South Island and thoroughly enjoyed it. The 1.5 CVT was smooth and pokey enough whilst the handling and lack of body roll was ideal for the twisty mountain roads. All-in-all a much better car than UK motoring critics ever acknowledged.

very objective and good review. thanks

I like the car but there is one thing I hate about it......






It's Called the Eclipse (Eclipse as in the 2-door sports car in the 90's)

Why do these reviewers always make comparisons with WW, which have well made interiors but are dull and gloomy places to sit.

I find this review Very biased, what has Peugeot 3008 got to do with this SUV, This is still best SUV hands down!

I watch alot of these videos and I have commented this on everyone: I own this car!

Great review of the 3008

she keeps mentioning the pug because it's a lot better

Everyone is using Waze these days. No need for nav anymore.

You seem to like the peugeot 3008, are you married to a frenchman! Japanese cars are way more reliable than any French car in my humble opinion

The comparison between Peugeot and Mitsubishi is like a joke. Mitsubishi offers 10 year warranty in the US and is ranked among the most reliable carmakers in Germany. Plus it has all the safety package with very good interior quality. According to engineers, the Eclipse Cross is a masterpice. Top AWD and CVT systems. Go and get the 3008 because it has 3D cockpit.

Mitsubishi is superior to the Peugeot 3008 in every way.

the S-AWC works well? is that all you got? an intelligent center diff and a rear vectoring diff on a normal car and that's all you can say about its all wheel capability?
this show should be called HandbagBuyer.

That rear looks so outdated already.. hideous

How is fuel economy?

Can't stand ginny buckley she's a badge and car snob!

It,s very nice car

LOL... mitsu over pegot anytime

Not going to lie I’m gutted they stopped producing family hatchbacks and saloons. Love my 50 plate Lancer and have no desire to own an SUV. It’s a bold move to stray away from their recent racing heritage. it’s good to see they’re still offering great value for money though they’re always cheap and reliable.

Headroom is great at the back..the model you review has a sunroof..obviously it takes some space....without it, its great...it would have taken you 3 seconds to mention it...nevermind, you probably have peugeot posters & french souvenirs in living room

Hello, how shall I "..avoid the unpleasant CVT automatic gearbox" in case I need the petrol engine model with 4WD? :-) Do they offer the model with a petrol engine with 4WD and manual or A/T gearbox?

I dont need to watch this video to know that it will be negative towards the Mitsubishi, and probably a sales pitch for some other brand. Dreadful channel. Carwow is another one I cant watch. Similar, dismissive and very negative reviews, the presenter seems to actually make a joke out of some cars, unless its for so called fashionable, trendy brands. OSV Car Reviews and Car Obsession are the best two UK channels in my opinion. Great presenters, like Top Gear was in the very early days. Honest, positive reviews, telling us why you should buy that particular car, and not giving you loads of reasons as to why you shouldnt. Sales staff at your local dealer would be out of a job if they did that to customers.

Drove one of these the other day, its dull, the auto box is rubbish and the boot is small.

Great car👍🏻

Thanks for the Peugeot 3008 review...sigh

I don't understand why people must compare to Peugeot 3008 when you're doing review on certain brands?I wonder how much Peugeot gave her undertable.I would sue her if I was from Mitsubishi.

Car Buyer is copying the American way, playing background music.  Next track will be elevator music, going down.

Why does she only vs with the 3008

Here to know about the car, not hear you marketing another car over and over again, have respect for time.

Is it All Wherl Drive / 4WD?

The reliability of Mitsubishi can't be compared to your Peugeot 3008

you cant compare this to a toyota ch-r.This is miles larger.

interior is fantastic actually.. and looks as much better quality made then peugeots..

Please just let Mitsubishi motors die a dignified death already

You review Mitsubishi car, but keep remind 50 times of Peugeot 3008. Do you work for Peugeot ? :)))))

Why are you so obsessed with "hard plastics on the dash" give over and be relevant. Its an excellent car in every way.

Ginny you talk about interior quality compared to the Peugeot 3008 but I don’t see you talking about reliability. 🤦🏻‍♂️ really!

Esta chica es demasiado hermosa !

They do have a point. Smartphones have been around for years and Google maps is way more reliable and better looking than any sat nav. I can't understand why a Toyota CHR for example still doesn't have these phone connectivities

It seems she is here to criticize this auto lolzzz

This car is not an eclipse. I'm not sure what kind of drugs the employees at mitsubishi are taking to slap a name with history on a family SUV. This car was NOT neccessary as there is the Mitsubishi Outlander which fun fact is for going cross country and not to soccer practice.

It didn't need to be a crossover for
gods sake

Ginny you are contradiction to car evaluation! For one you’re behind the times, people use their phones for nav and 6ft4” test riders have sat in the backseat and thought it plenty of headroom as well as the boot space was plenty since the backseat is movable. Moreover it rates high and superior to EURO crash test to the Peugeot 3008. So your 5’4” bod and your Peugeot w/out the safety bells and whistles this car has can move along!
