Where These Numbers Come From

This page was built by Cedrick Reese from the U.S. EPA fuel economy dataset on fueleconomy.gov, which holds 28 ratings for the Mitsubishi Eclipse Cross from 2018 to 2026. Each row in the table links to the matching EPA vehicle record, so you can check any figure against the source. The page is rebuilt whenever the EPA publishes an updated file, which picks up new model years and any rating corrections. The cost calculator uses the gas price you enter rather than a national average, so the result fits where you live.

Ratings on this page come from the EPA file downloaded on October 1, 2026.
