Peruzzi Mitsubishi – What to Know About the 2026 Mitsubishi Eclipse Cross
The 2026 Mitsubishi Eclipse Cross brings together standout style, confidence-inspiring control, and everyday practicality in a compact SUV that is easy to live with and enjoyable to drive. With standard Super-All Wheel Control across the lineup, advanced driver-assistance features, and a thoughtfully designed interior, it is built to deliver value without asking you to compromise on the features you want most.
At Peruzzi Mitsubishi, we see shoppers gravitate to the Eclipse Cross because it balances comfort and capability in a way that fits real life. It is maneuverable for city driving, steady and reassuring on the highway, and versatile enough to handle weekend errands or a quick getaway with friends. Below, you will find what is new, what stands out, and how to choose the trim that best matches your needs.
Performance and Control: S-AWC Comes Standard
Every 2026 Eclipse Cross includes Mitsubishi’s Super-All Wheel Control. This advanced system actively manages torque and braking at each wheel to help you stay planted on rain-slicked streets, gravelly work sites, and winding backroads. It enhances stability at speed and provides more confident takeoffs from a stop, especially when the pavement is less than perfect.
Under the hood, a turbocharged four-cylinder teams with an efficient automatic transmission to deliver smooth, predictable response. The powertrain focuses on real-world drivability—quiet, composed cruising and easy passing power—rather than chasing headline-grabbing performance numbers. That approach pays off in daily comfort, a relaxed feel on longer drives, and reassuring traction when conditions change.
If you plan to hitch up a small trailer or add a cargo platform, the Eclipse Cross offers light-duty towing when properly equipped. Ask our team about the ideal accessories and setup for your use case, from hitches and wiring to load considerations.
Design That Looks Sharp and Works Hard
The Eclipse Cross earns attention with clean body lines, a sculpted front fascia, and a confident stance that looks upscale without being over the top. It is an SUV you will feel good stepping into for a client meeting or pulling up to a favorite restaurant.
Inside, you will find thoughtful storage solutions, supportive seating, and a flexible cargo area that expands quickly with easy-fold rear seats. The cabin materials feel durable and refined, and upper trims bring additional touches like available leather-appointed seating, a heated steering wheel, and distinctive styling cues that dial up the sophistication.
Technology That Simplifies Your Drive
Connectivity is straightforward and familiar. Smartphone integration supports your go-to navigation, music, and messaging apps, and the central touchscreen is intuitive to use. Available Mitsubishi Connect with Safeguard and Remote Services adds helpful conveniences, like remote door lock and vehicle status features, plus automatic alerts for added confidence. Enrollment is required, and a trial period helps you experience the benefits from day one.
Practical touches—such as available FAST-Key entry, push-button start, and a handsfree power tailgate—streamline loading and unloading when your hands are full. Thoughtful USB placement keeps devices charged, and available power-adjustable seating lets you fine-tune comfort for longer commutes.
Safety and Driver Assistance
Driver-assistance features are a highlight. Forward Collision Mitigation with Pedestrian Detection and Lane Departure Warning help you stay alert to what is ahead and alongside. Available Blind Spot Warning with Lane Change Assist and Rear Cross Traffic Alert add valuable awareness in busy parking lots and multi-lane traffic.
Shoppers who want even more confidence can step up to trims offering a Multi-View Camera System, which makes tight spaces far less stressful, along with available adaptive cruise features that support smoother, more relaxed highway travel. The overall package is designed to reduce fatigue and help you feel in control.

Ownership Confidence and Coverage
Mitsubishi’s warranty coverage is a standout in the segment and a major reason the Eclipse Cross is a smart long-term pick.

Mitsubishi also includes limited maintenance coverage for routine service in the early years, helping you manage costs and keep your SUV in top shape.
Pair that factory backing with simple, transparent service scheduling and you will find it easy to keep your Eclipse Cross performing at its best. Our advisors can help you plan visits around your routine and recommend maintenance that fits your driving habits.
