With so many good cars on the market today, buyers have the luxury of not having to settle for anything less than what they truly want. That’s great for automakers who sell cars that please on every front, especially if those vehicles happen to be among the growing ranks of crossovers. Subaru thought the B9 Tribeca was a winner, but buyers responded to the Subie’s looks by buying its competitors. The significant refresh, consisting of a power upgrade but more importantly a reskinning of the front end, should help the 2008 Tribeca appeal to more buyers, and in doing so, provide a boost to Subaru’s already healthy growth.
