2018 Mitsubishi Eclipse Cross is only for the bold

A polarizing split-rear window in Mitsubishi's latest compact SUV means you either love it or hate it.

I love two-seater, RWD convertibles and own a 2004 Mazdaspeed Miata for pavement fun and a lifted 2001 Miata for pre-running. I race air-cooled Volkswagens in desert races like the Mint 400 and the Baja 1000. I have won the Rebelle Rally, seven-day navigational challenge, twice and I am the only driver to compete in an EV, the Rivian R1T.

The 2018 Mitsubishi Eclipse Cross takes its inspiration from the popular Eclipse coupe produced from 1990 to 2012.

It has got a bit of a polarizing design in the rear fascia. That split rear window inspires some strong opinions.

All-wheel drive is standard on LE trims and above. If you want two-wheel drive, you'll have to stick with the base SE model.

Mated to a continuously variable transmission, the engine is delightfully strong and torquey.
