Key Features of the 2027 Mitsubishi Eclipse Sportback EV
Projected 282-Mile Electric Range
Range is often the first question shoppers ask about an EV, and the 2027 Mitsubishi Eclipse Sportback EV is expected to deliver a projected 282 miles of driving range. That figure gives the vehicle a practical foundation for daily commutes, school runs, shopping trips, visits around the Milwaukee metro area, and longer regional drives. Electric power also changes the feel of daily driving. With a 75-kWh battery pack and a 214-hp electric motor powering the front wheels, provided vehicle information indicates the Eclipse Sportback EV has the quick, smooth acceleration EV drivers appreciate. Maximum torque is listed at 261 pound-feet, which helps the vehicle feel responsive from a stop and confident when merging or passing. Unlike a gas engine that needs to build revs, an EV delivers power almost immediately, making everyday driving feel simple and direct. For many shoppers, the projected range is not just a number – it is what makes electric driving fit into a normal routine.
Level 1, Level 2, and Tesla® Supercharger Network Access
Charging flexibility is one of the strongest reasons to consider this Mitsubishi EV. Mitsubishi notes that the Eclipse Sportback EV offers access to Level 1 and Level 2 charging, as well as Level 3 charging through the Tesla® Supercharger network, described by Mitsubishi as the largest fast-charging network in North America. Provided vehicle information also describes a split charge-port strategy: a NACS port on the right-front fender for DC fast charging and a J-1772 port on the left-front fender for Level 2 public charging or home charging on 240-volt AC power. Under ideal circumstances, DC fast charging can charge from 10 to 80 percent in about 35 minutes, while the onboard charger is capable of 7.2 kilowatts for Level 2 charging from 20 to 80 percent in roughly 6.5 hours. A portable charging cord with pigtails for both 240-volt and 120-volt outlets is listed as standard, adding flexibility for different charging situations. Navigation-based battery preconditioning for DC fast charging also helps prepare the battery for more efficient charging when a fast charger is entered as a destination.
Dual 14.3-Inch Displays with Android Auto and Apple CarPlay
The cabin of the Eclipse Sportback EV has a clean, modern digital layout anchored by a 14.3-inch digital instrument cluster and a second 14.3-inch touchscreen display in the center of the dash. This setup gives the driver a clear view of essential EV information while keeping navigation, media, connectivity, and vehicle controls within easy reach. Standard Android Auto and Apple CarPlay make it easier to bring familiar smartphone functions into the vehicle, including maps, calls, messages, podcasts, and music apps. The large center display helps make route planning more intuitive, which matters in an EV because navigation can support charging stops and battery preconditioning. Physical details still matter, too. Provided information notes manually adjustable vents and a volume knob, both of which help the cabin feel user-friendly rather than overly screen-dependent. The center console includes large cupholders, a useful key fob slot, and under-armrest storage. It is a tech-forward cabin, but it remains focused on everyday usability.
Regenerative Braking with e-Step
Regenerative braking is one of the features that can make electric driving feel more efficient and more engaging. The Eclipse Sportback EV offers five levels of regenerative braking, identified as B1 to B5, allowing the driver to choose how strongly the vehicle recaptures energy while slowing. The e-Step button boosts regenerative braking further, giving a stronger deceleration feel when lifting off the accelerator. This does not provide full one-pedal operation, since the driver still brakes to a complete stop below about 8 mph, but it does create a more controlled and efficient driving rhythm. For local stop-and-go driving, regenerative braking can reduce how often the brake pedal is used and make speed adjustments feel smoother. The vehicle also retains creep torque like a conventional automatic, while Auto Hold can turn that off after coming to a complete stop. The result is a driving experience that can feel familiar to gasoline-vehicle owners while still giving EV benefits.
Available Technology Package
The available Technology package adds upscale convenience and comfort features that make the Eclipse Sportback EV feel even more refined. Provided vehicle information lists the package as including a panoramic glass roof with electrochromic dimming, a power liftgate, a 10-speaker Bose premium audio system, and roof rails for luggage racks or cargo boxes. The panoramic glass roof adds openness to the cabin, while electrochromic dimming allows light control without a traditional shade system. A power liftgate is especially useful for shoppers who frequently load groceries, work bags, sports gear, or luggage. The Bose premium audio system gives music, podcasts, and calls more depth, which pairs well with the naturally quiet EV cabin. Roof rails add another level of flexibility for outdoor gear or extra cargo solutions. Standard equipment is already strong, with an eight-way-adjustable power driver’s seat, heated front and rear seats, heated steering wheel, 18-inch alloy wheels, front and rear automatic emergency braking, an around-view monitor function, and two 120-volt outlets that can power small appliances, tools, or gear directly from the battery pack.
