S. lineup of cars, the Eclipse has been on sale here since 1989. Today's Eclipse competes against the likes of the Honda Accord coupe, the Hyundai Genesis Coupe, and base V-6 versions of the Ford Mustang and Chevrolet... Sold in similar forms by the Chrysler Corporation as the Eagle Talon and Plymouth Laser, the Eclipse initially was offered with a choice of four-cylinder and turbocharged four-cylinder engines. On turbocharged versions, the Eclipse could be had with a manual transmission with 195 horsepower and all-wheel drive, and that Eclipse GSX regularly won magazine comparison tests and landed on best-of lists. From some shared running gear, Chrysler and Mitsubishi developed the two-door Dodge Avenger and Chrysler Sebring coupe, which had more in common with the four-door Mitsubishi Galant.
