B9 Tribeca

 

The new-for-2006, the B9 Tribeca is a mid-size, crossover sport-utility vehicle that resides above the Forester and Legacy Outback in Subaru's lineup, and comes wrapped in much more curvaceous sheetmetal than any of the automaker's vehicles to date. It's also the first model to sport Subaru's new front-grille styling in which a central air intake is accompanied by an oval "wing" on each side. It's also priced excessively - at or near the top of the mid-size crossover range. The vehicle comes powered by the 250-horsepower, "boxer" 3.0-liter six-cylinder engine that's otherwise offered in the Legacy. A five-speed automatic transmission that allows manual gear selection is standard and drives all four wheels via Subaru's Variable Torque Distribution all-wheel-drive system. The B9 Tribeca's cornering abilities benefit from a coil spring, front-strut suspension up front and an all-new double wishbone array at the rear, as well as standard 18-inch wheels and tires. Offered in both five- and seven-passenger versions, the vehicles comes with a 60/40 split-fold-away second row seat that features a 40/20/40 folding seatback; this seat can also move fore and aft to accommodate more or less leg room where needed. The available third row offers a 50/50 split. Standard features include front-side and side-curtain airbags, a tire-pressure monitoring system, anti-lock brakes with Electronic Brakeforce Distribution, and Vehicle Dynamic Control. Options include a rear seat DVD entertainment system that includes a large nine-inch screen and wireless headsets.
