LOS ANGELES: After making its global debut in June, the 2027 Mitsubishi Eclipse Sportback, an all-new battery electric vehicle (BEV) is set to be launched across North America in fall of 2026.
Mitsubishi Motors North America (MMNA) has released further information about the charging protocols for the 2027 Eclipse Sportback.
The 2027 Eclipse Sportback will offer – as standard equipment on all models – SAE's North American Charging System (NACS) compatibility, offering access to the Supercharger network.
With the vehicle's capability to charge at up to 150kW, Level 3 charging will allow the vehicle to fast-charge from 10% to 80% state-of-charge in 35 minutes.
Charging time and capacity may vary based on power source, ambient temperature, battery temperature, condition, age and use of vehicle accessories while charging.
The vehicle also will feature a J1772 plug that can be used for both Level 1 and Level 2 charging at home or in other charging situations.
Its standard 75kWh lithium-ion battery pack is liquid-cooled for charging efficiency, range maximisation and long life.
The new BEV will be sourced from Mitsubishi Motors' Alliance partner Nissan Motor, based on the next-generation Nissan Leaf.
The sporty electric subcompact SUV (sport utility vehicle) will feature unique front and rear fascias that echo other vehicles in Mitsubishi Motors' global lineup, distinct front and rear lights and lighting signatures, striking and sporty alloy wheels and, of course, the brand's iconic Triple Diamond branding.
The Eclipse Sportback EV will be joined in early 2027 by an all-new rugged, off-road derivative of the Outlander SUV.
