Small overlap front: driver-side
Rating applies to 2018-24 models
Tested vehicle: 2019 Mitsubishi Eclipse Cross SEL 4-door 4wd
The Mitsubishi Eclipse Cross was introduced in the 2018 model year and is derived from the Mitsubishi Outlander. There was no 2021 model year produced. Driver-side small overlap frontal ratings are assigned by the Institute based on a test conducted by Mitsubishi as part of frontal crash test verification.

The dummy’s head contacted the frontal airbag but slid off toward the right side, leaving the head vulnerable to contact with forward structure. The side curtain airbag deployed and has sufficient forward coverage to protect the head from contact with side structure and outside objects. The side torso airbag also deployed. | |

Overall rating | |
Distance at which headlights provide at least 5 lux illumination: |
Low beams
On the straightaway, visibility was good on the right side of the road and fair on the left side. On curves, visibility was good on both right curves, fair on the sharp left curve and inadequate on the gradual left curve.
The low beams created some glare.
High beams
On the straightaway, visibility was good on the right side of the road and fair on the left side. On curves, visibility was inadequate in all 4 tests.
High-beam assist compensates for some limitations of this vehicle's low beams on the straightaway and on the gradual left curve.
