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
The Renault Kadjar is a spacious family SUV that’s perfect for the family – it just isn’t that exciting inside and is pretty dull to drive.The Renault Kadjar is a large family car that looks smart, is cheap to run and comes with a fairly big boot. It sits above the Renault Captur but below the Renault Koleos in terms of size in Renault’s SUV range.
Pros Big boot Spacious cabin Frugal engines
Cons Drab interior Entry-level models quite basic Less comfortable than a Qashqai
The Kadjar is a crucial car for Renault because it has to do battle in the mid-sized crossover arena.
Pros Comfy if you go for small wheels, Decent room for your money, Improved engines
Cons Dull to drive, Unhelpful touchscreen
