Grand Blanc Mitsubishi - Everyday Confidence with S-AWC and Smart Tech for Lansing, MI Drivers with the 2026 Mitsubishi Eclipse Cross

Mornings do not wait, weather is rarely predictable, and errands never seem to come one at a time. That is exactly why an SUV with year-round traction and no-fuss technology matters. With Super-All Wheel Control (S-AWC) standard across the lineup, Mitsubishi engineered the Eclipse Cross to help you keep moving when roads get slick and ruts get deep. Add in simple, thoughtful features like a Handsfree Power Tailgate and Mitsubishi Connect with Safeguard And Remote Services And 24-Month Trial (Enrollment Required), and daily driving feels less like juggling and more like gliding. Whether your week is mostly school runs and downtown parking or a steady rotation of sports gear and grocery hauls, the Eclipse Cross blends poise with practicality that feels tailor-made for Michigan routines.

What makes this SUV stand out for busy drivers around the capital region is how its technologies are easy to use without being distracting. The available 8.0-inch touchscreen is clear and straightforward, and available wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto keep your phone in sync while your focus stays on the road. A quiet cabin, comfortable seating options, and available features such as an 8-Way Power Adjustable Driver Seat, Heated Steering Wheel, and Leather Appointed Seating Surfaces elevate every commute. Meanwhile, key safety systems like standard Forward Collision Mitigation (FCM) with Pedestrian Detection and Lane Departure Warning (LDW), plus available Blind Spot Warning (BSW) with Lane Change Assist (LCA) and Rear Cross Traffic Alert (RCTA), put confidence on repeat in tight parking lots and on crowded freeways. It all adds up to an SUV that earns trust mile after mile.

Frequently Asked Questions:

Is S-AWC helpful outside of winter months?

Yes. S-AWC assists year-round by optimizing traction as surfaces change, from wet spring roads to gravel driveways and uneven construction zones. The system continuously coordinates torque distribution to help you feel planted and in control.

Do I need upper trims to get advanced safety features?

Key protections such as Forward Collision Mitigation (FCM) with Pedestrian Detection and Lane Departure Warning (LDW) are standard. If you want added visibility and confidence, features like Blind Spot Warning (BSW) with Lane Change Assist (LCA), Rear Cross Traffic Alert (RCTA), and the Multi-View Camera System are available on higher trims.

How does the Handsfree Power Tailgate make daily life easier?

When your hands are full, a quick motion allows the tailgate to open automatically, streamlining loading and unloading so you spend less time juggling and more time going.

What connectivity features support my routine?

The available 8.0-inch touchscreen, available wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, and Mitsubishi Connect with Safeguard And Remote Services And 24-Month Trial (Enrollment Required) keep you connected, informed, and supported with simple, reliable tools.
