The 2022 Eclipse Cross has received some significant styling updates, particularly at the rear end. Up front, a new Dynamic Shield grille design is dominant and it's more similar to the rest of the recently updated Mitsubishi lineup, such as the 2021 Outlander Sport. The two-piece rear window design has been swapped out in favor of a one-piece unit, which increases storage space to 50.1 cubic feet with the rear seats folded, and 23.1 cubic feet with the seats up.
Nothing has changed under the hood; the 1.5-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine with 152 horsepower remains while power is directed to either the front-wheels or all four wheels through a continuously variable transmission (CVT).
Pricing begins at $23,395 - just $400 more than 2020. (Mitsibushi skipped over the 2021 model year) plus $1,600 for Super All-Wheel Control (S-AWC) on all trim levels. A total of five trim levels are on offer, including the LE, priced from $24,745; the SE at $26,145; SE with Panorama Package for $27,145; SEL for $27,395; and SEL with Touring Package for $29,495.
The interior now features an eight-inch Smartphone-link Display Audio (SDA) system on LE trims and higher. Instead of the touchpad controller, there's now a touchscreen that sits two inches closer to the driver and has conventional volume and tuning knobs. The myQ Connected garage door opener and TomTom navigation are optional.
Sales are expected to commence later this year.
