2019 Jeep Cherokee vs. 2019 Mitsubishi Eclipse Cross

On the surface, it would seem the interiors of the 2019 Jeep Cherokee and 2019 Mitsubishi Eclipse Cross are going to be on equal footing, just because they each offer two rows of seating and maximum capacity of five passengers. However, those who are sitting in the back of the 2019 Cherokee will have more than 40 inches of legroom to stretch out, while those in the backseat of the 2019 Eclipse Cross will have about five inches fewer. Additionally, the 2019 Jeep Cherokee has far more available cargo room than its Mitsubishi competitor. When the rear seats are being used by passengers, the 2019 Cherokee still has about 25 cubic-feet to use, compared to about 22 cubic-feet for the Eclipse Cross. When the seats are folded down, the 2019 Cherokee offers 54.7 cubic-feet.

The standard powertrain of the 2019 Jeep Cherokee consists of a 2.4-liter, four-cylinder engine attached to a nine-speed automatic transmission. It will produce up to 180 horsepower and 171 pound-feet of torque. All versions of the 2019 Mitsubishi Eclipse Crosse use the same set up, a turbocharged, 1.5-liter, four-cylinder engine making 152 horsepower and 184 pound-feet of torque. However, as a Billion Auto Group customers moves up the trim ladder of the 2019 Cherokee, more performance and capability become available. Buyers can also choose from a naturally aspirated 3.2-liter, V-6 or a turbocharged 2.0-liter engine, making 271 and 270 horsepower, respectively. When properly equipped, the 2019 Cherokee can tow up to 4,000 pounds. Under the best circumstances, the 2019 Eclipse Cross tops out at 1,500 pounds of towing capacity.
