Mitsubishi EclipseSpecs for all generations of Mitsubishi Eclipse

The Mitsubishi Eclipse GSX was the only all-wheel drive model available in North America. All other models were front-wheel drive. The GSX — also known as the Grand Sport X — was produced for the first two Eclipse generations, and discontinued in the year 2000.

Mitsubishi stopped production of the Eclipse in August of 2011 to focus on electric and smaller footprint vehicles. In 2012, Mitsubishi started selling the i-MiEV — the company’s first electric car — to US markets.

Mitsubishi already tried to revive partially Eclipse. The Japanese carmaker released  the Eclipse Cross in 2018. But it is far from the original Eclipse,  at least because of being a SUV. Mitsubishi remains focused on crossover and electric/hybrid car segments, and there are no plans to bring back the Eclipse Sport Coupe.
