Mitsubishi recently teased this new small SUV, which revives the Eclipse badge that was previously used on the Japanese manufacturer's sportscar. And now it has been officially revealed.

Called the Eclipse Cross, the newcomer will slot in above the ASX and below the Outlander.

As far as appearances are concerned, the Eclipse Cross adopts the dynamic shield design seen on some of Mitsubishi's most recent products. With this you get a smattering of chrome-effect trim on the front, while a distinctive LED taillamp design features round back.

When you step inside the Eclipse Cross, a silver theme immediately catches the eye, especially along parts of the facia. The cabin also boasts a new infotainment system and a head-up display.

Powering the Eclipse Cross will be a turbocharged 1,5-litre petrol engine with an eight-step continuously variable transmission or a 2,2-litre turbodiesel mill connected to an eight-speed automatic transmission. The SUV will come fitted with all-wheel drive as standard.

The new Mitsubishi Eclipse Cross will be on display in Geneva and is expected to arrive in showrooms across the globe in 2018.
