The Car Connection's Take
TCC Rating
7.6
8.2
TCC’s Bottom Line
The 2014 Subaru Tribeca is a solid choice if you're a family who needs all-weather handling, but its old design and poor fuel economy may leave you looking elsewhere. The 2014 Toyota Highlander covers familiar territory, without straying too far into Adventure Land.
