"2012 Mitsubishi &amp;quot;i&amp;quot;          Eclipse production ends in 2012. The front-drive coupe and convertible bow out with a special edition featuring little more than paint, wheels and a select option package. In its place will be a completely different vehicle\u2014the electric &amp;quot;i&amp;quot;, which offers 85 miles of range and seating for four. The rear-drive i produces 66 horsepower and 145 lb.-ft. of torque, which is just enough juice to hit 80 mph on the highway. For a base price of $27,990, this relatively low-cost pure electric promises to be a reasonable alternative to gas-powered subcompacts. Starting in November, the i will be sold in select metropolitan areas and Hawaii. At the other end of the spectrum is Mi\u00ADtsubishi&amp;#039;s turbocharged pocket-rocket Lancer Evolution. There are no major changes for 2012, but its imminent departure in 2013 has been confirmed. The bargain Evo alternative, the Lancer Ralliart, carries on as well with nary a change. Meanwhile, the standard front-drive gains an all-wheel-drive option, with a CVT powertrain borrowed from the Outlander SUV.        2012 Mitsubishi Eclipse    Up next: Nissan &amp;amp;gt;&amp;amp;gt;                 \u2022 Acura     \u2022 Ferrari     \u2022 Lincoln     \u2022 Rolls-Royce       \u2022 Aston Martin     \u2022 Fiat     \u2022 Lotus     \u2022 Saab       \u2022 Audi     \u2022 Fisker     \u2022 Maserati     \u2022 Scion       \u2022 Bentley     \u2022 Ford     \u2022 Maybach     \u2022 Smart       \u2022 BMW     \u2022 Honda     \u2022 Mazda     \u2022 Subaru       \u2022 Bugatti     \u2022 Hyundai     \u2022 McLaren     \u2022 Suzuki       \u2022 Buick     \u2022 Infiniti     \u2022 Mercedes-Benz     \u2022 Tesla       \u2022 Cadillac     \u2022 Jaguar     \u2022 Mini     \u2022 Toyota       \u2022 Chevrolet     \u2022 Kia     \u2022     \u2022 Volkswagen       \u2022 Chrysler     \u2022 Lamborghini     \u2022 Nissan     \u2022 Volvo       \u2022 Dodge     \u2022 Lexus     \u2022 Porsche          "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
