Subaru Tribeca Sales Figures

Subaru Tribeca

The Subaru Tribeca was a mid-size crossover SUV produced by Subaru. Named after the TriBeCa neighborhood in New York City, it was manufactured from 2005 to 2014. The Tribeca was Subaru’s first attempt at a three-row SUV, aiming to cater to families needing more seating capacity.

Subaru Tribeca Overview

The Tribeca was initially launched in 2005 and was recognized for its unconventional front-end styling, which drew mixed reviews. Underneath its unique exterior, the Tribeca offered seating for up to seven passengers. The first generation came with a 3.0-liter flat-six engine coupled to a five-speed automatic transmission, with Subaru’s signature Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive as standard.

In 2008, the Tribeca received a significant facelift, which included a more traditional and widely accepted exterior design. The 3.0-liter engine was replaced by a more powerful 3.6-liter flat-six engine, still paired with a five-speed automatic transmission. The Tribeca was discontinued after the 2014 model year due to slow sales. It was succeeded by the Subaru Ascent in 2018, a larger three-row SUV that addressed many of the shortcomings of the Tribeca.
