The redesigned 2022 Mitsubishi Eclipse Cross has comfortable seats and some easy-to-use tech features, but it isn’t as modern, refined, or upscale as many of its compact SUV competitors.

Pros
Responsive infotainment controls
Comfortable seats
Great warranty
Less expensive than its classmates

Cons
Outmoded, low-rent interior
Antiquated infotainment interface
Subpar cargo capacity
Less athletic than rivals

By:

After skipping over the 2021 model year, Mitsubishi has given the Eclipse Cross a styling revision for 2022 that includes modernized front- and rear-end treatments. A sleeker-looking rear liftgate eliminates the odd split-rear window design of previous model years.

Pros
Serene highway cruising,
plentiful cargo space,
long standard warranty coverage.

Cons
Middling acceleration,
disappointing fuel efficiency,
base model is awfully basic.
