Mitsubishi Eclipse Cross 2019

 

Overview

With the release of “The Fast and the Furious” in 2001, MITSUBISHI gained huge popularity with their original Eclipse sports car. MITSUBISHI is finally back with their Eclipse series after decades, not with the sports cars, but all new SUVs.

The 2018 Eclipse crossover has joined the ASX and Outlander as the company’s city-focused, more mainstream crossover line-up. The new Eclipse Cross 2019 comes with new turbocharged engines alongside an 8-speed Continuously Variable Transmission, featuring sports mode.

2019 Highlights:

• MITSUBISHI Eclipse Cross comes with a smooth front fascia. Leading from the top, the SEL trim comes with LED headlights, LED low and high daytime running lights, and the usual MITSUBISHI grill with its distinctive chrome line.

It runs a 1.5 MIVEC + Direct Injection Turbo Charged 4-cylinder engine that produces up to 152 horsepower and a torque of 184 lb-ft.
• MITSUBISHI Eclipse Cross 2019’s Continuous Variable Automatic Transmission (CVT) does the job of maximising the propelling force. If you want manual gearing, the paddle shifters on the steering wheel will allow you to do so.

Overall, the 2019 Eclipse gives you a family friendly driving experience with the elevated driving position on bumpy roads, through bends, leans and freeways.

3 Reasons You Should Buy a Mitsubishi from an Authorised Dealer

If you’re thinking about purchasing a new car, you’ve no doubt weighed up whether to buy new or go with a used car. Regardless of what decision you make, it can be a smart move to buy from an authorised dealer. There are hundreds of Mitsubishi dealers all over Australia selling quality new and used cars and you can always find the right deal. Let’s take a look at a few of the reasons you’d choose to buy from a local authorised dealer.

Convenience

With so many Mitsubishi dealers around, it’s highly likely that you have one very close by to where you live. But distance isn’t the only factor that makes buying from a dealer convenient, it’s also the fact that you know what you’re getting when you go there. If you’re in the market for a Mitsubishi, you know that the best place to go is your local dealer; you don’t have to research online or call around, you just head over and chances are you’ll find what you’re looking for.

Servicing and Warranties

While Mitsubishi provides a 5-year warranty across the board on all new cars, specific Mitsubishi dealers often have throw-ins and goodwill services that may not be available if you buy elsewhere. Vehicle manufacturers will often be more inclined to look after people that have decided to buy a Mitsubishi car.

Buying from a local dealer will also establish a connection for future servicing. In fact, you may find that you can bargain to have x number of services included when you make the purchase. The service centre will know your car better than anyone having sold it to you and being Mitsubishi experts and will have greater access to genuine parts.

Availability

Generally, a Mitsubishi authorised dealer is going to have more models in its showroom or parking lot than other non-specialist car dealerships. If you’ve got your eye on a particular model in a particular colour with a particular interior, you’ve got a much better chance finding it here than anywhere else. And even if it isn’t available that very day, chances are the exact model can be there very quickly.The same goes for used cars; authorised dealers will generally have a greater variety on hand.

 If you’re sure about which Mitsubishi you’re after, a local dealer is certainly your best bet.
