It aimed to compete in a segment with established players like the Toyota Highlander, Honda Pilot, and Ford Explorer, appealing to families seeking capability and safety. Competitive Analysis Competitive Analysis: In 2006, the crossover SUV market was robust. The B9 Tribeca's key differentiators were its standard AWD and a horizontally-opposed 'boxer' engine, a hallmark of Subaru. Its unique styling, while divisive, set it apart. Competitors often offered more conventional V6 engines and a wider range of interior configurations and creature comforts at similar price points.
