Streamlined sophisticated styling

The exterior design of the new Tribeca is streamlined and powerful, building upon the sporty and dynamic feel of its predecessor model. Interior designs express a sophisticated quality look and sportiness.

Outstanding performance

The new Tribeca has been developed with the goal of balancing improved performance and environmental considerations.

Without increasing the physical dimensions of the power unit, the displacement was expanded from 3.0 to 3.6 liters, which was made possible primarily through design changes involving expanded bore dimensions and a longer stroke.

The new engine maintains the same levels of emissions and fuel efficiency as the previous 3-liter unit, despite the larger engine size and more powerful output.

The new 3.6-liter boxer engine features Dual Active Valve Control System (Dual AVCS) for controlling timing in both the intake and exhaust valves, which helps provide improved low-end torque.

Design modifications made to the cooling system allow the use of regular unleaded gasoline, which contributes to lowering consumer operating costs.

A substantially revised 5-speed Automatic transmission with newly designed control unit, refined torque converter and optimized gear ratio delivers faster shifting response and smooth and powerful acceleration.

The new engine and transmission are lighter weight, achieving a total weight reduction of 4.4 kilograms.
