The all-new 2007 Mitsubishi Eclipse Spyder is a surefire way to make the routine seem more like a permanent vacation. With a 650-watt (max.) Rockford Fosgate audio system providing the soundtrack and a potent 3.8-liter MIVEC V6 under your right foot,dull moment are a thing of the past. It's like being rich and famous. But without all the paparazzi and stuff
Sometimes the things that make a high-performance car are the same things that make a safe car. A rigid platform. An advanced anti-lock braking system. A sure-footed, nimble-handling vehicle. An advanced air bag† system. Eclipse Spyder is a unique vehicle that satisfies your driving passions and your safety needs both.
The ABS technology utilized by the 2007 Eclipse Spyder helps to eliminate wheel lock-up during panic or emergency braking. Wheel speed is monitored and braking pressure is optimized when impending wheel lock-up is sensed. By "pulsing" the brakes up to 10 times per second, wheel rotation is modulated in order to help eliminate lock-up and maximize driver control.One of the greatest contributions to occupant safety in a collision is the ability of the platform to dissipate impact energy. The 2007 Eclipse Spyder platform is reinforced in key locations using high-strength steel. Then additional cross members in the dash area and cabin floor help maintain cabin rigidity in the event of a side collision. All this is then reinforced with side sills, along with front and rear sub-frame components, which minimize deformation due to an offset front impact.
In addition to the advanced platform and sub-frames, the Eclipse Spyder offers advanced front airbags and front seat-mounted side-impact airbags. Sensors respond to the force of an impact and to the driver's seat position (and passenger seat occupant weight) to vary the rate of airbag deployment and help provide a more accurate response.
