Eclipse Cross PHEV owners will now be able to run domestic appliances through their vehicle, but will have to pay for the privilege

Much like its bigger brother, the Outlander PHEV, the smaller Mitsubishi Eclipse Cross PHEV will now be available with vehicle-to-load (V2L) functionality as part of the 2023 update for Aspire and Exceed grades.

What this means is that owners will now be able to power domestic appliances and tools through a 240-volt outlet in the rear of the plug-in hybrid versions of the Eclipse Cross, which has a total output of 1500W.

But that all comes at a cost. Prices for the Eclipse Cross PHEV have increased by up to $1500 from last year, with the ES PHEV now starting from $47,290 before on-road costs, while the flagship Exceed PHEV now costs $55,990 before on-road costs.

Eclipse Cross powertrain explained 

Powering every Eclipse Cross PHEV is a mixture of internal combustion and electric power. A 2.4-litre petrol engine with outputs of 94kW/199Nm is mated to Mitsubishi’s hybrid system that consists of two electric motors and a 13.8kWh battery pack.

The Eclipse Cross has two electric motors onboard to assist the 2.4-litre petrol engine

While the front electric motor produces 60kW of power, the rear-mounted electric motor produces 70kW.

Mitsubishi claims that owners will be able to drive up to 55km in electric-only mode and that the Eclipse Cross PHEV is capable of consuming just 1.9L/100km.

Mitsubishi’s hybrid system is linked up to its ‘super all-wheel control’ setup.

The higher Aspire grade features more safety systems including adaptive cruise control, auto high beam, auto rain-sensing wipers, blind spot warning, lane change assist, lane departure warning, a 360-degree camera and rear cross-traffic alert.

The Exceed model gains ultrasonic misacceleration mitigation that works to avoid accidents caused when the driver mistakenly pushes the accelerator pedal.
