As a company car proposition, the Suzuki Across stacks up well; its low emissions bring low tax bills, and its very good all-electric range and punchy performance sweeten the deal. But an extremely high list price narrows its appeal among private buyers; cheaper alternatives are better to drive, more comfortable, and nicer inside.
PROS Low official CO2 emissions Punchy performance Long electric-only range
CONS Very expensive Poor infotainment system Rivals are better to drive
PROS Smooth and powerful drive Great electric range and CO2 Practical and high-quality interior
CONS Very expensive Ride is a touch firm Shorter warranty than Toyota
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
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.
Pros Long list of standard features Peppy city driving performance Easy-to-use infotainment system
Cons Subpar handling abilities Disappointing fuel economy
