Mitsubishi Mitsubishi Eclipse Cross
Slotting in to fi ll the gap between the ASX crossover and the popular Outlander, the Eclipse Cross is a stylish and sportier looking SUV that Mitsubishi is aiming at younger buyers. A sloped roof fi ts in with its sharp lines making it stand out. The interior is better than we’re used to seeing from Mitsubishi, where a large touchscreen features smartphone connectivity, along with a head-up display. It is only available with a 1.5-litre petrol engine with either manual or CVT automatic transmissions. The manual isn’t that nice to use, while the CVT is smoother, though it doesn’t feel all that sporty to drive. Its above-average emissions don’t help matters, with both models falling under Band C for annual tax.

Mitsubishi Space Star
There are two very good reasons to consider the Mitsubishi Space Star. One, it comes with an eight-year warranty, and you intend to hold onto your car for as long as it’ll keep going. Two, it really does live up to its name with a spacious interior accessed by fi ve doors. Nonetheless, the Space Star feels like it’s from a bygone era in terms of its interior construction and design, even if the equipment levels are acceptable enough (assuming you stay away from the entry-level ‘Invite’ car). The 1.2-litre petrol engine is relatively effi cient and surprisingly perky around town and there’s an automatic option if you really, really, really can’t have a manual gearbox.

Mitsubishi ASX
The ASX isn’t the most well-known of models in the vast crossover market and, having been part of Mitsubishi’s range for many years, it is starting to show its age despite the updates, especially on the inside. Nonetheless, it has reasonable amounts of space inside, plus a 416-litre boot. It features decent levels of equipment, too, though the specifi cation struggles to disguise that it’s not as well-made as many of its competitors. One advantage for new buyers is that Mitsubishi provides an eight-year warranty, which should add value. Sadly, the ASX doesn’t drive as well as most of its rivals, either. The petrol engine is well-priced, but is costlier to run compared to the 1.6-litre diesel.
