2012 Mitsubishi Eclipse Spyder

The New 2012 Mitsubishi Eclipse Spyder has launched with six different color that is Northstar White, Quick Silver, Sunset Pearlescent, Rave Red, Carbon Grey and Kalapana Black.
The 2012 Mitsubishi Eclipse Spyder is configured with a convenient 2+2 seating arrangement, the Eclipse Spyder comes in three different editions for the 2012 model year. The amply-equipped entry-level GS Sport (starting MSRP $27,999), the distinctively styled SE special edition (starting MSRP $28,299) and the full-tilt GT (starting MSRP $32,599) version that possesses a stirring V-6 engine beneath its hood.

The Mitsubishi Eclipse Spyder type GS Sport and SE vehicles are powered by a refined dynamo of a drivetrain – a 162 horsepower 2.4-liter SOHC 4-cylinder engine that makes use of the Japanese auto manufacturer’s elaborate Mitsubishi Intelligent Valve timing Electronic Control (MIVEC) variable valve-timing system that helps elevate both the power output and fuel economy while simultaneously reducing harmful exhaust emissions. This engine features a fortified cast-iron engine block, a bore and stroke measuring 3.43 x 3.94 inches, and a lofty compression ratio of 9.5:1 that help it to produce a full 162 lb.-ft. of torque at 4,000 rpm. Despite all of this horsepower and torque, the Eclipse Spyder still manages to achieve exceptional fuel mileage within the EPA-rated fuel consumption of 20 mpg city/ 27 mpg highway. What’s more, this engine achieves this level of power production and fuel efficiency on regular unleaded gasoline – a helpful design feature that can help the car’s owner to save more money at the gas pump. This engine delivers its power to the vehicle’s front wheels through a slick 4-speed Sportronic® automatic transmission.

 

For the enthusiast driver that demands even more potency and speed, the 2012 Mitsubishi Eclipse Spyder GT is the obvious choice as it offers a substantially higher 40% more power output than the previously mentioned 4-cylinder powerplant in the form of a souped-up 265 horsepower 3.8-liter SOHC 24-valve V-6 engine that, just like that of its GS Sport and SE siblings, that includes Mitsubishi’s impressive MIVEC variable valve-timing system. Key design elements of this V-6 engine include a peek torque figure of 262 lb.-ft. at 4,500 rpm, a bore and stroke of 3.74 x 3.54 inches, a compression ratio of 10.5:1, with the engine’s redline occurring at 6,500 rpm. The 2012 Mitsubishi Eclipse Spyder GT gets an EPA-rated 16 mpg city/24 mpg out on the highway on premium gasoline, which is recommended to maximize performance.
