Mitsubishi Motors North America has released the first images of the 2027 Mitsubishi Eclipse Sportback, a new battery-electric subcompact SUV.
Working with partner Nissan, Mitsubishi will introduce the Eclipse Sportback EV to the North American market as a 2027 model in the second half of 2026. The Eclipse Sportback EV is based on the next-generation Nissan LEAF, but it will feature cosmetic design changes that “differentiate the two vehicles and make the model distinctively Mitsubishi.” No more details are on offer at the moment.
Mitsubishi’s electrification efforts began in the 1970s with some experimental electric vehicles in Japan. The i-MiEV, one of the world’s first mass-produced EVs, went on sale in 2009 and arrived in the US and Canada in 2011. Partners Citroen and Peugeot released rebadged versions (the Peugeot iOn and the Citroen C-ZERO), which can still be seen on European streets. A racing version, the i-MiEV Evolution, made a respectable showing at the 2012 Pikes Peak International Hill Climb. The Outlander PHEV, a far more advanced vehicle, arrived in North America in 2018.
