Prestige Mitsubishi - 2026 Mitsubishi Eclipse Cross: AWD Traction and Everyday Tech for La Crosse, WI Drivers
When winter lingers and the roads around the river valley keep you guessing, few compact SUVs feel as settled as the Eclipse Cross with standard Super-All Wheel Control (S-AWC). For La Crosse, WI drivers, that means a vehicle that reads the road and quietly goes to work, helping you track straight through slush, pull confidently from an icy stop sign, and stay composed over rutted intersections. Just as important, the cabin tech is designed to simplify life—Mitsubishi Connect with Safeguard And Remote Services brings helpful remote features and connected support once enrolled, while available smartphone integration keeps your maps, calls, and playlists at your fingertips. The result is a daily drive that feels less like a chore and more like a well-orchestrated routine.
S-AWC is the headline, but the supporting cast matters too. Active Stability Control (ASC) and Hill Start Assist (HSA) help smooth transitions on slick grades and uneven surfaces. Available Blind Spot Warning (BSW) with Lane Change Assist (LCA) and Rear Cross Traffic Alert (RCTA) reduce surprises when merging or backing into traffic, and an available Multi-View Camera System provides a top-down perspective that eases tight parking garages after snowfall narrows lane markings. Pair these with available LED Headlights and a Handsfree Power Tailgate for a complete package that’s as capable as it is convenient. If you are building a short list for winter-ready SUVs that still deliver an easygoing commute, this one deserves a close look.
- Standard S-AWC: Coordinates power delivery to help maximize grip and stability when surfaces change from dry to slick.
- ASC and HSA: Enhance balance on uneven grades and assist smooth pullaways on hills or plowed berms.
- Available BSW with LCA and RCTA: Adds side and rear awareness in crowded lots or lane-split merges.
- Available Multi-View Camera System: Gives an overhead perspective to navigate tight spaces with confidence.
- Mitsubishi Connect: Offers connected support and remote features once enrolled for the trial period.
For families, the interior layout makes everyday tasks easier. The available Handsfree Power Tailgate streamlines loading groceries or hockey bags when your hands are full. Rear USB access helps keep tablets topped up on longer runs, and available heated features reduce the time it takes to get comfortable on frigid mornings. If you prefer a bright, open feel, the SE Pano configuration brings a wide-sky vibe to every drive. And when style matters, the Black Edition’s Black Roof Rails, Black Door Handle Trim, and sporty accents deliver curb appeal without compromising practicality.
