The Eclipse we grew up with died in 2012 when Mitsubishi pulled the plug on its affordable sports car. However, the name made an unexpected return five years later, repurposed for an entirely different vehicle. Fast-forward to 2025, and the Eclipse Cross is still in its first generation, but a successor is on the way. Much to the dismay of enthusiasts, it will stray even further from the original formula by becoming an EV.
