Mitsubishi Eclipse Cross vs Subaru Crosstrek

The Mitsubishi Eclipse Cross and the Subaru Crosstrek are both equipped with a plethora of the latest safety tech features in vehicles today. Some of these available features include…

Where the Mitsubishi goes the extra mile is with the standard Forward Collision Mitigation with Pedestrian Detection. This feature grants an extra layer of protection from impact, ranging from people to other vehicles. The Subaru comes standard with Pre-Collision Braking, which looks out for cars more than people.

Further than keeping your vehicle safe on the roads, both the Eclipse Cross and Crosstrek are designed with features that keep your car safe even when not in use. However, the Eclipse Cross offers two unique features to prevent your vehicle from going anywhere without your approval:

The Subaru goes without similar features that would protect your vehicle when you’re not in the driver’s seat.

The Mitsubishi and the Subaru are adventurous vessels, which means they make room for your necessary gear. Whether it be sleeping bags, backpacks, or kayak oars, you’ll have over 50 cubic feet of cargo volume in either SUV.

However, we all know that adventure draws a crowd. So, when the five seating appointments fill up in either the Eclipse Cross or the Crosstrek, you’ll still have ample room in the trunk:

• Mitsubishi Trunk Volume: 23.4 cubic feet
• Subaru Trunk Volume: 19.9 cubic feet

With more room behind the second row, you’ll have more flexibility with the cargo you bring or pick up along the way. .

In terms of cabin comfort, the Mitsubishi and the Subaru have it all. In fact, you’ll find these similarities within the two SUVS:

While the Subaru Crosstrek prioritizes front-passenger comfort, the Mitsubishi Eclipse Cross extends it to the second row with available heated rear seats. Unfortunately, you won’t find a similar amenity in the Subaru.

Both the Mitsubishi and the Subaru offer driver-centric cockpits centered with touchscreen displays that customize your media to your preferences. Bluetooth® comes standard with both SUVs to access your favorite music, podcasts, audiobooks, and hands-free calls on the road.

Plus, Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™ are offered on both models for more connectivity options. With this feature, your car can become as custom to you as your cell phone. Another feature both models share is the range of four to six speakers varying on trim levels.

So, what does the Mitsubishi have that the Subaru doesn’t? An available Head-Up Display! This transparent screen projects vital driving information onto your windshield and within your direct line of sight. It displays speed, cruise control indicators, and enables safety feature information!

Plus, this system is adjustable. You can alter the brightness and the height of the information so you can see your needed information with just a quick glance. While the Subaru can be equipped with an impressive instrument cluster, it goes without a Head-Up Display.
