Mitsubishi Eclipse GS 2dr Coupe Overview

The Mitsubishi Eclipse is a sporty two door, four-seat coupe with nice exterior styling and a functional interior. It appeals to a large audience with its youthful looks and affordable price.

The Eclipse is offered in four trim levels: GS, GS-Sport, SE, and GT. Power is delivered by a 162-hp 2.4-liter four-cylinder engine paired with either a five-speed manual or four-speed automatic transmission with Sportronic shift control. A 265-hp 3.8-liter V6 engine powers the GT and comes with a five-speed automatic transmission featuring Sportronic shift control. Standard safety features include vehicle stability control with traction control, frontal-impact, side-impact and side curtain airbags, anti-lock brakes, and a tire pressure monitoring system.

For 2012, the Mitsubishi Eclipse receives a new SE trim. It features dark argent 18" wheels, black exterior door mirrors, and dark lower side "SE" graphic. Also new to all trims is the addition of brake override logic, a clear lip spoiler on the GT trim, and one new exterior color.

Mitsubishi Eclipse Safety Overview & Features

Anti-lock brakes

ABS brakes automatically sense when a tire has stopped rotating under extreme braking, and will modulate the brake pressure to allow the tire to rotate. This increases the vehicles ability to turn while braking.

Stability control

Stability control automatically senses when the vehicles handling limits have been exceeded and reduces engine power and/or applies select brakes to help prevent the driver from losing control of the vehicle.

Front-impact airbags

Front-impact airbags for the driver and passenger have been designed to protect the head during a frontal crash.

Side impact airbags

Side impact airbags for the front seats have been designed to protect the torso during a side impact collision.

Overhead airbags

Overhead airbags are used to protect the occupant's heads in the event of a side collision or rollover.

Pretensioners

Seatbelt pretensioners automatically tighten seatbelts to place the occupant in the optimal seating position during a collision.

Security system

The vehicle is equipped with a means of anticipating and/or detecting unwanted vehicle intrusion. The vehicle is equipped with an ignition disable device that will prevent the engine from starting if the correct original manufacturer key is not used.
