 guys welcome back to another one if you are new to the channel I am Goldpony and today I'm quite excited for this one this is my first ever Miss Abishi review we are in the new 2020 Miss Abishi Eclipse Cross courtesy of Platinum Miss Abishi in Mechanicsburg PA and so besides it being my first ever review in a Miss Abishi this one is quite exciting because to start it has a very good name the Eclipse Cross of course with the Miss Abishi Eclipse being a legend back in the day bring it back Miss Abishi second of all comes with a great warranty five-year 60,000 mile bumper to bumper 10-year 100,000 mile powertrain so excellent there so what do you say let's go ahead and jump right into it and as always let's start with pricing and so there will be several different trim levels for the 2020 Eclipse Cross first one being the ES starting at $22,845 LE for $23,945 SE for $25,495 and lastly the SE L which is the one we have today of course starting at $26,995 and of course that was all actually pricing for the front wheel drive variant so if you wanted to go with the four-wheel drive variant actually Miss Abishi calls it super all-wheel control I'll explain that in a second year but that is going to add $1,600 to any of those prices I just gave you so real quick super all-wheel control what is that it is not all-wheel drive it is a four-wheel drive system and it was originally specifically developed for the 2007 Lancer Evolution and now is used on vehicles like the Outlander and the Eclipse Cross if you guys know anything about the Lancer Evolution you know that was Miss Abishi's rally car therefore with that being a rally car that all-wheel drive system had to be amazing with it being raced in snow and dirt and things like that so therefore quite a nice four-wheel drive system to come with the Eclipse Cross but so then when it comes to the power plant powering this beast is a 1.5 liter turbocharged inline-four cylinder putting out 152 horsepower at 5,500 rpm 184 pound-feet of torque available from the power band of 2,000 to 3,500 rpm again sent to front wheels or all wheels through a CVT giving you MPG numbers at 26 in the city 29 on the highway for the front wheel drive 25 city 26 highway for the four-wheel drive either way it does take regular unleaded fuel so that's certainly a plus to save you some money there did what I also mentioned since we're touching on fuel economy there's also an ego button just in front of the shifter there if you press that it's going to reduce the throttle response climate control things like that all in all the concepts there is to help you save even more MPGs if you wanted it so I would probably use that if you did a lot of highway driving that's certainly gonna help you out there but any who nonetheless let's go ahead and now turn that off and let's do a quick little acceleration here in the new 2020 misubishi eclipse cross and let's see how quickly we can get this one here up to speed right so you can definitely tell it is a CVT there was no real gear changes there because there aren't any but one of the main things I was actually looking for was turbo lag which I did not find so that is a good thing overall power was pretty much as expected certainly not gonna have any issues merging on to the highway so for me acceleration was just fine in the eclipse cross but to then to go along with that as always breaking is equally important up front you're gonna find 11.6 inch ventilated front discs in the back 11.9 inch solid rear discs and overall as far as the breaking feel goes I've had absolutely no issues today so breaking feel is quite nice touching on suspension and handling up front you're gonna get a McPherson strut front suspension with the stabilizer bar in the back a multi-link rear suspension again with the stabilizer bar and as far as the steering feel goes it's pretty much as expected I will say it is a little bit heavier of a weight to it which is nice comparatively speaking to some other SUVs that I've tested so as far as the steering feel goes it's definitely quite nice in the eclipse cross when it comes to ride quality so far so good at least in my short test drive today haven't hit too many obstacles or potholes of course but ride quality has been just fine so far cab noise is quite good as well the only thing I've really heard so far is some floor mats wrapped in plastic sliding around in the trunk but other than that new issues with cabin noise either and then touching on visibility visibility is fine I guess you could say after you kind of train your eyes not to look at that center bar that separates the upper and lower rear window back there but overall visibility actually isn't bad it's just that center bar is just somewhat distracting but I would imagine you would get used to that if you were to drive this on a daily basis but continuing visibility there's a couple features that help with forward visibility as well for instance a head-up display is going to be available if you wanted to go that route as well as rain sensing windshield wipers coming standard for the SE and SEL trim levels and those are pretty cool they're kind of like automatic headlights so if it were to start drizzling the eclipse cross would then sense that and automatically turn on the windshield wafers for you so you don't have to worry about flicking them on or anything like that so it's kind of one less thing you have to worry about focus more of your time on driving so that's kind of cool too but that kind of rounds out the performance segment of the eclipse cross let's go ahead and make our way to the exterior and let's check out this new 2020 miso-bishi eclipse cross and so now starting up front you will find silver and chrome accents if you were to go with the SE or SEL trim levels however if you want with the ES or LE those silver and chrome accents are going to simply be replaced by body color to accent so I'm sure that's going to look just as good but to the sides halogen headlights can be found on the ES, LE and SE trim levels if you wanted to go LED simply go with the SEL trim level that we have today however I did want to mention those LED headlights are available on the other trims as well some of the other trims as well so if you wanted to go with the lesser trim level but still wanted the LED headlights you can go that route if you wanted to either way automatic feature comes standard with the SE and SEL trim levels meaning when it starts to get dark out the headlights will turn on automatically for you there it's always nice just below fog lights standard on all trim levels there's actually a lot of SUVs out there these days that make fog lights either an option or they're going to be standard on upper trim levels as opposed to all of them so that's kind of nice that the eclipse cross did that also LED daytime running lights also standard on every single trim level but now let's go ahead and make our way to the side of the eclipse cross here looking up when it comes to those roof rails they are actually optional on the SE and SEL trim levels rear privacy glass is going to come standard for every single trim level as well as chrome window surrounds definitely nice that they put the chrome windows around to tie in with the chrome accents on the front of the eclipse cross there side mirrors when it comes to them you're going to get body colored side mirrors for the ESSE and SEL trim levels black side mirrors with the LE in the case I haven't mentioned it yet that LE is kind of the sportier trim level of the eclipse cross so to speak heated side mirrors come standard on all trim levels that's definitely a good thing and power folding side mirrors can be found in the SE and SEL and actually those integrated turn signals again with other SUVs they're going to be found on the higher trim levels but with the eclipse cross integrated LED turn signals are found on every single trim level that is awesome so any you let's back back out here and let's make our way to the wheel setup 16 inch alloy wheels can be found on the ES and there's actually a new design for 2020 so it's not what you're looking at right now of course but that is kind of cool 18 inch alloy wheels can be found on all other trim levels but the ES because I just mentioned that of course so 18 inch alloy wheels and all other trims last thing I wanted to mention as far as the side of the SUV goes is there is a shark fin antenna found on top for all trim levels but now let's make our way to the back here rear roof spoiler can be found on every single trim level as well as a rear window wiper just below in case you guys didn't notice a lot of manufacturers will put that rear window wiper on the glass but misubishi kind of hides it up underneath guys can see that underneath that spoiler there kind of like the Cadillac Escalade does or Chevy Suburban so I think it's kind of cool any you backing back out LED tail lights standard on every single trim level well done eclipse cross for that LED high mount stop light as well single exhaust outlet found just below tucked away for all trim levels so you guys know what we have to do next as always here is that exhaust clip it's up now since we are around back when it comes to opening that rear hatch they simply just lift up underneath and that is how you're going to get that one open but once opened up cargo capacity is going to commit at 22.6 cubic feet if that was not enough space however those rear seats do fall down there is a 6040 split bumping the cubic feetness up to 48.9 so good bit of space back there and so since we're back here I did want to mention there is a cargo light back there there is no in-floor storage but in place of that you will find a full-size spare so that is going to be found in the back there grocery hooks also found back there and a massive Rockford Foskate subwoofer it is a beast I kind of like how you can see it as well so I can't wait to test out the sound system in a little bit here making your way to the back seats rear legroom comes in at 35.3 inches so for reference I'm in even six feet tall this is how much space I have back there if you wanted a rear center armrest with cupholders that can be found on the S-E and S-E-L turn levels heated rear seats are actually optional on the S-E-L we do happen to have that today that is awesome that is really a luxury feature usually find with a luxury manufacturer so that is pretty cool then you can also find of course a 12 volt power outlet for those rear passengers but perhaps the coolest thing that we had today at least there is a dual panel moonroof dual panel means the front seats get one and the rear passenger seats get one but it gets better than that a lot of times you have to control that rear panel moonroof from the front however those rear passengers can actually control that themselves there is a little button on the roof of the eclipse cross they can simply open that up or close it whenever they wanted to so that's one of the coolest things for the rear passengers at least but let's make our way to the front seats manually adjustable seats come with the E-S-L-E and S-E trim levels you will find an eight-way power adjustable driver seat if you want with the S-E-L heated front seats are going to come standard for all trims but the E-S then you have cloth seating for the E-S-L-E and S-E and leather seating for the S-E-L that's what you're looking at right now of course and I do like the copper accent stitching that can be found on these seats as well as well as the doors it ties in there too and overall the seats are quite comfortable I also like how there's vertical seams there's no horizontal seams the horizontal seams sometimes create awkward pressure points so the vertical seams are definitely the way to go in my opinion at least but taking a look up front at the steering wheel it is tilt and telescoping and will come leather wrapped for the S-E and S-E L trim levels and there's a nice piano black finish near the bottom as well as a fan of that and if you wanted it heated that is actually going to be an option for the S-E L trim level only so that is pretty cool and that's going to be there for you as well but now let's make our way to the startup and let me first start by showing you guys the key here you do have your misubishi logo on the one side and when you flip it over you have lock and unlock but to actually start this one up it is a turn key start with the exception of the S-E and S-E L trim level so therefore we do have a push button start today all I am going to do is simply just put my phone on the brake and press that engine start button located just to the right of the gauges there but so that what started up these gauges are actually pretty cool tachometers on your left speedometers on your right the pretty cool part is the intro that they give you when you first start up the eclipse cross there is a picture of the eclipse cross front and center so I thought that was pretty cool can of course check out your basic information up there outside temperature trip a trip b how many miles you have left until you have empty stuff like that but another cool thing about the eclipse cross is then when you turn it off it doesn't say goodbye like some of the other manufacturers do it says see you I like that it's different and it's kind of cool so well the fishy there I got to kick out of that overall interior quality that dual pain panoramic sunroof I keep mentioning it's optional on the S-E and S-E L trim levels dual zoom climate control is going to come with the S-E and S-E-L you're going to find a black headliner with the S-E-L that we have today also pretty nice as far as finishes go you do have some silver plastic around the shifter that carries on to just above the glove box and the doors as well I do kind of like the carbon fiber look around the window buttons on both the driver and passenger side doors that looks pretty cool that piano black finish that was talking about in steering wheel that carries on to right around the shifter so I don't mind that I see a couple of my fingerprints in there already but also just in front of the shifter you're going to find two usb charging ports there's a 12 volt power outlet once again little storage area just below that and is a rubberized storage area so things don't slide around there you also have an electronic parking brake to the right of the cupholders and by the way the cupholders are to the left of the electronic parking brake and just below that center armrest you're going to find a pretty deep storage area actually with a little tray there again with a carpet-like finish the things don't slide around once again but over also pretty nice finishes there so let's make our way to the tech display now front and center you're going to get a seven inch color touchscreen display for all trim levels and if you want with the le trim level and up there's also going to be a touch pad controller just kind of directly to the back right hand corner of the shifter touch pad controller kind of like lexus does actually it was pretty easy to use honestly i was playing around with that for a little bit so i think i would still prefer the touchscreen but that touch pad controller is kind of handy if you were to be driving so you don't have that long reach so that's pretty cool that that's there but either way bluetooth and audio streaming come standard on all trim levels android auto apple carplay also all trims but the es trim level that's how you're going to get that also you can check out your radio information of course and by the way when it comes to the sound system we'll find four speakers for the es and le and six speakers for the s e and s e l and there is actually an optional touring package that adds 2100 dollars that adds a rockford fosgate sound system with that massive subwoofer in the trunk so what do you guys say let's go ahead and turn this eclipse cross back on see if we got playing today and let's test out the clarity of this one kind of base with that sound system i will say that actually very clear rockford fosgate did a very good job with clarity with the eclipse cross there definitely felt like it was coming in all directions as well so very nice job with the rockford fosgate again that's an optional sound system with the touring package that adds 2100 dollars but very nice there then last thing on the tech display i wanted to mention to you guys is when you do put the eclipse cross in reverse you will find a rear view camera with dynamic grid lines and you're actually going to get multiple views including a 360 degree view if you went with the s e l trim level that we have today so that's what you're looking at right now but as always that is going to lead us into safety it's the first thing i wanted to mention probably the most important thing when it comes to safety the eclipse cross digity IIHS top safety pick rating so that is absolutely wonderful to start with front side and side curtain airbags come standard as well as the driver's knee airbag for all trim levels in the back you're gonna have latch aka lower anchors and tethers for children for the rear car seats also rear child door locks back there tire pressure monitoring system that's all pretty basic stuff but s e and s e l trim levels are also going to add electronic parking brake with auto hold blind spot warning with rear cross traffic alert lane change assist automatic high beams for collision mitigation with pedestrian detection and lane departure warning this is one of the cool things i actually got it on film in this video that was pretty cool but the eclipse cross basically yells at you when you go over the lane a little bit which is good that means that's going to prevent you from getting into an accident so i love that also optional on the s e l if you wanted it there is an adaptive cruise control system available there too and so but anyways that is about it
