Driving The Eclipse

Driving The Eclipse

Author: Tomas Yoko
Date: 2020-03-06

First impressions are well taken care of in the Mitsubishi Eclipse Cross, it looks like its flying even when its standing still. This compact SUV market contender has come out of its corner swinging.

With powerful engines offering 198 to 250 Newton meters of torque, and combined cycle fuel consumption of just 7.7 litres per hundred, the Eclipse Cross is an attractive option.

Mitsubishi and its long 'Dakar' history of first podiums can be felt in the seamless combination of safety and driving dynamics, like the S-AWC system. The Eclipse is responsive, light footed and adapts to any South African driving conditions with the AUTO, SNOW or GRAVEL driving modes.

A very well crafted interior that offers a luxurious space, a large touch screen and uncomplicated yet informative information system.

Mitsubishi have specked the Eclipse really well with everything including Rain Sensing Windscreen Wipers. An urban tool for life in the fast lane, or life at the beach, either way.
