    Inside the Mitsubishi Eclipse Cross

    What the turbo 1.5 and S-AWC deliver

    Every 2026 Eclipse Cross uses the same powertrain: a turbocharged 1.5-liter four-cylinder rated at 152 horsepower and 184 lb-ft of torque, driving all four wheels through a CVT. There is no front-drive version, no hybrid, and no engine upgrade, so trim choice does not change how it drives. The standard Super All-Wheel Control (S-AWC) system adds Active Yaw Control, which brakes individual wheels to keep the vehicle on its intended line in corners and on slick pavement, hardware philosophy carried over from Mitsubishi's rally programs. The engine runs on regular gasoline. The base ES is EPA-rated at 25 MPG city / 28 MPG highway / 26 MPG combined; the LE and higher trims, which ride on 18-inch wheels, are rated 25/26/25. Properly equipped, the Eclipse Cross tows up to 1,500 lbs, enough for a small utility trailer or a pair of personal watercraft.

    Choosing between the trims

    The ES opens the lineup at $27,695 before destination with 16-inch alloys, a 7-inch touchscreen, Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, Forward Collision Mitigation, and Lane Departure Warning. The LE ($29,295) adds 18-inch wheels, an 8-inch display audio system, fog lights, and automatic high beams. The SE ($30,395) is the value pick: it brings Blind Spot Warning with Rear Cross Traffic Alert, adaptive cruise control, an 8-way power driver's seat, and synthetic suede upholstery, with a panoramic sunroof available for $1,000 more. The Ralliart ($31,245) and Black Edition ($31,545) are appearance-focused versions, adding rally-style graphics, spoiler, and mud flaps on the former and blacked-out trim on the latter. The SEL ($31,845) steps up to leather seating, a heated steering wheel, and a multi-view camera, and its Touring package ($33,695 as the SEL Touring) adds a head-up display, heated rear seats, and the panoramic roof.

    How it compares with the Outlander and Outlander Sport

    The Eclipse Cross sits in the middle of Mitsubishi's SUV ladder. Below it, the Outlander Sport starts at $23,995 with a 148-horsepower 2.0-liter engine; it costs less, but its basic design dates to 2011 and it gives up the Eclipse Cross's turbo torque and newer cabin. Above it, the Outlander is a three-row SUV that seats seven, starts at $29,995, and pairs a 181-horsepower 2.5-liter four-cylinder with a CVT. The Outlander also offers front-wheel drive, which the Eclipse Cross does not, and an Outlander PHEV with 38 miles of electric range starts at $43,245. Pick the Eclipse Cross if you want standard all-wheel drive and a turbo engine for under $28,000 and do not need a third row; pick the Outlander for space, the Outlander Sport for price.

    Pros and Cons

    Pros
    • S-AWC all-wheel drive is standard on every trim at a $27,695 starting price; many compact rivals charge $1,500 or more to add AWD
    • 10-year/100,000-mile powertrain warranty and 5-year/60,000-mile limited warranty are among the longest in the class
    • Turbocharged engine delivers 184 lb-ft of torque and runs on regular gasoline
    • Apple CarPlay and Android Auto are standard on all trims, even the base ES
    • 50.1 cu ft of maximum cargo space with the rear seats folded
    • Only about $6,000 separates the base ES from the loaded SEL Touring, so upper trims stay attainable
    Cons
    • 152 horsepower through a CVT makes acceleration leisurely; most compact rivals offer 180 horsepower or more
    • EPA ratings of 25 MPG city / 26 MPG highway on all trims except the ES trail most gas rivals, and there is no hybrid version to answer the 35-plus MPG compact hybrids
    • Cargo space behind the rear seats is 23.4 cu ft, well short of class leaders that offer close to 40 cu ft
    • Embedded navigation was dropped for 2026, and the 7- or 8-inch touchscreens are small next to competitors' displays
    • Towing tops out at 1,500 lbs, and the underlying platform dates to 2018 with only a 2022 refresh since

    Frequently Asked Questions about the 2026 Mitsubishi Eclipse Cross

    Very little; Mitsubishi confirms the 2026 Eclipse Cross is a carryover year. The embedded navigation system was deleted (Apple CarPlay and Android Auto remain standard on every trim), and the previously dealer-installed "Eclipse Cross" hood badge became standard on SEL and SEL Touring models. The lineup also includes a Ralliart appearance version at $31,245 with rally-style graphics, spoiler, and mud flaps. The powertrain, standard S-AWC all-wheel drive, and styling all carry over unchanged.
    Every 2026 Eclipse Cross uses a turbocharged 1.5-liter four-cylinder rated at 152 horsepower and 184 lb-ft of torque, paired with a CVT. It runs on regular gasoline. This is the only powertrain offered; there is no hybrid, plug-in hybrid, or larger engine option.
    Yes. Mitsubishi's Super All-Wheel Control (S-AWC) system is standard equipment on every 2026 Eclipse Cross trim, and no front-wheel-drive version is sold. S-AWC includes Active Yaw Control, which manages braking and driving force at each wheel to improve grip and cornering stability in rain, snow, and on loose surfaces.
    The EPA rates the 2026 Eclipse Cross ES at 25 MPG city, 28 MPG highway, and 26 MPG combined. All other trims (LE, SE, Ralliart, Black Edition, SEL, SEL Touring) are rated 25 MPG city, 26 MPG highway, and 25 MPG combined. All versions are all-wheel drive and use regular gasoline.
    The 2026 Eclipse Cross is rated to tow up to 1,500 lbs when properly equipped. That covers a small utility trailer, a pair of personal watercraft, or a lightweight pop-up camper, but it is not enough for most full-size boats or travel trailers; shoppers who tow regularly should look at a midsize SUV or truck.
    The 2026 lineup, priced before destination, runs: ES ($27,695), LE ($29,295), SE ($30,395), Ralliart ($31,245), SE with panoramic roof ($31,395), Black Edition ($31,545), SEL ($31,845), and SEL Touring ($33,695). The SE is the value sweet spot, adding blind spot monitoring, adaptive cruise control, and a power driver's seat for $2,700 over the base ES.
    The 2026 Eclipse Cross seats five across two rows. Cargo capacity is 23.4 cu ft behind the rear seats and 50.1 cu ft with the second row folded. That is enough for a weekly grocery run or a couple of large suitcases, though it trails roomier compact SUVs such as the Honda CR-V and Toyota RAV4.
    Every 2026 Eclipse Cross carries Mitsubishi's 10-year/100,000-mile powertrain limited warranty, a 5-year/60,000-mile new-vehicle limited warranty, a 7-year/100,000-mile anti-corrosion warranty, 5-year/unlimited-mile roadside assistance, and a 2-year/30,000-mile limited maintenance program. The powertrain coverage is among the longest offered by any mainstream brand.
