Improved comfort and functionality

Subaru Tribeca / Overview / Improved comfort and functionality

The new Tribeca offers a pleasant ride with improved access, visibility, and comfort.

Third row seating access has been enhanced through a number of changes. The second row seat comes with a tilt-and-slide control on both the driver's and passenger's sides and a new assist spring that reduces the effort needed to slide the second row seat. Also new are molded grab handles on the lower C-pillar to assist in stepping into the third row.

With redesigned door mirrors and rear quarter windows, side and rear vision have been improved.

Re-calibrated rear suspension with new bushings improves ride comfort.
