New Eclipse Mitsubishi 2012

For the first time the Japanese car Eclipse Mitsubishi made its debut in 1989. It was then that the first generation of the legendary sports coupe appeared. As a basis, the engineers took the design of the famous Mitsubishi-Galant, which at one time won great popularity all over the world. The novelty was intended for fans of fast driving, who could not afford expensive sports cars. In fact, the car has gained the same popularity as its soplatformennik. Confirmation of this - uninterrupted 24-year serial production of Eclipse Mitsubishi. Recently, the Japanese decided to please their customers, creating in 2012 a new generation of legendary coupe. In this article, we will look at how a novelty differs from its predecessors and whether it deserves the attention of buyers.

Design

Despite the fact that the car received a significant upgrade, its exterior remained virtually unchanged. The machine is very standard for the coupe. At the same time, Japanese designers did not deprive the novelty and the characteristic forms of sportiness. Large seventeen-inch alloy wheels are successfully combined with the lateral lines of the body. Ahead of the car has an expressive form of headlights and an equally unique bumper. Behind the novelty it shows us powerful wings and sports boot lid. However, such traits have haunted Eclipse Mitsubishi since the 1990s, so, looking at the appearance of the novelty, you can immediately find out in it the good old Eclipse

Inside Mitsubishi Eclipse

Tuning of appearance, as we have already seen, definitely will not be necessary for sports Mitsubishi. About its interior you can say the same thing. Sitting behind the wheel of the car, you feel yourself the owner of this sport car. Sportiness is present in every detail. A well-read and simultaneously attractive instrument panel has a distinctive coloring, and control buttons are located in the quick access area. On the road the novelty shows its high maneuverability and dynamism, which, in combination with comfortable sports seats, allows you to move comfortably not only along the highway, but also around the city.

Mitsubishi Eclipse: engine performance

The machine has a wide range of engines. Among them, buyers will be available a six-cylinder petrol engine with a capacity of 265 horsepower and a volume of 3.6 liters. There is also a variant with a capacity of 2.4 liters with a capacity of 162 horsepower. As for fuel consumption, it, unfortunately, is not the best among the Japanese coupe. Even the most economical motor will spend about 16.5 liters on the highway and 19 liters of gasoline around the city. The 265-horsepower engine consumes more than 20 liters per 100 kilometers of run. By the way, this disadvantage was pursued by Eclipse Mitsubishi from the very first generation. Conclusion

Determine whether this machine is suitable for domestic consumers is very difficult, but we can say one thing: if you are burning with the desire to buy a stylish sports car for little money and at the same time fuel consumption for you is not in the first place, as an option such a car can be fully considered. In general, because of the high cost of gasoline, this model is rapidly losing demand, so it is possible that the legendary coupe will soon be removed from production.
