The name Tribeca derives from the TriBeCa neighborhood of New York City. The Tribeca is the only vehicle in this class that comes equipped with AWD as standard equipment, with a FWD or rear wheel drive platform not available. The Tribeca was only Subaru's third production vehicle to forgo frameless side windows, the first vehicle being the Subaru SVX and the second being the GE/GH/GR series Subaru Impreza. The Tribeca is not sold in Japan, and it was introduced in Australia and New Zealand in late 2006, with an introduction to Germany in 2007. This is mainly due to the similar Subaru Exiga sold in Japan. As a result, the Subaru Tribeca is the only 2000s-introduced vehicle in the current North American Subaru lineup. The Tribeca is available in North America, Europe, China, Australia and parts of southeast Asia. |
