• Save big on a new compact crossover when you choose the Eclipse Cross!
• Both of these city-friendly models keep you comfy, whether you're sailing across the Howard Franklin or snagging the last parking space downtown.
• Thanks to its available hybrid powertrain, the Honda CR-V delivers the biggest fuel savings.
• Mitsubishi offers one of the best warranties in the business, potentially helping you save thousands on repairs further down the road!

To save big on a brand new compact SUV, choose the Eclipse Cross. This fun-loving Mitsubishi starts at just $26,545, making it a very accessible option. Starting at $30,100, the 2025 Honda CR-V forces you to spend thousands of extra dollars — so it might not be the best option for your budget.

When it comes to your everyday drive, these models have a lot to offer. For starters, both the Eclipse Cross and CR-V keep you snug and supported, with comfy seating and a smooth ride. And both come standard with a healthy array of amenities, including automatic climate control and automatic emergency braking. Each model also offers its own list of luxury upgrades, giving you everything from leather seating to a panoramic sunroof!

Thanks to its available hybrid powertrain, the Honda CR-V offers maximum fuel-saving potential. The Sport, Sport-L, and Sport Touring trim models come standard with the CR-V's hybrid powertrain, returning an EPA-estimated 40 mpg combined (42 city/36 highway). The other CR-V trim models utilize the standard four-cylinder engine, which earns an estimated 30 mpg combined (28 city/34 highway).

• Standard turbo 1.5L four-cylinder engine (190 hp, 179 lb-ft)
• Optional 2.0L hybrid four-cylinder engine (204 hp, 247 lb-ft)
• Continuously variable transmission
• Front-wheel drive or optional all-wheel drive

Meanwhile, the Mitsubishi Eclipse Cross puts more of an emphasis on its sporty performance. Every trim model includes all-wheel drive — traction-boosting gear that helps you travel dirt roads and rain-slicked highways alike. Every trim model features the same engine and therefore offers the same EPA ratings: 26 mpg combined (25 city/28 highway).

• Turbo 1.5L four-cylinder engine (152 hp, 184 lb-ft)
• Continuously variable transmission
• All-wheel drive

Mitsubishi's long-lasting warranty — one of the best in the business — may help you save thousands of dollars over time! If you plan to keep your small SUV for more than a few years, Mitsubishi's 10-year/100,000-mile (whichever comes first) limited powertrain coverage is especially enticing!

• New Vehicle Limited Warranty: 5 years/60,000 miles
• Powertrain Limited Warranty: 10 years/100,000 miles
• Anti-Corrosion/Perforation Limited Warranty: 7 years/100,000 miles

Honda's warranty is pretty standard. Like most automakers, Honda covers powertrain-related issues for five years or 60,000 miles — whichever comes first. That's fine if you don't do a lot of driving or plan to replace your SUV in a few years. But it can't compete with Mitsubishi's lengthy coverage!

• New Vehicle Limited Warranty: 3 years/36,000 miles
• Powertrain Limited Warranty: 5 years/60,000 miles
• Rust Perforation Limited Warranty: 5 years/Unlimited Mileage

In the end, the 2025 Mitsubishi Eclipse Cross gives you more to love — a lot more! With everything from expansive warranty coverage to a sporty performance, this small crossover SUV handles your busy lifestyle with ease.
