| Contrà´le technique |
The 2008 Mazda Tribute gets a bolder, tougher new look this year, along with a more comfortable, more upscale interior. Other improvements, including a first-ever Hybrid model, breathe new life into a crossover that hasn’t seen many changes since its 2001 introduction.
Offered in both front- and all-wheel-drive versions, the Tribute sport-utility vehicle shares platforms and powertrains with the Ford Escape and Mercury Mariner, as well as their hybrid editions, though the Tribute carries its own distinctive styling inside and out. The exterior’s best new feature is a prominent, squared-off nose. The Mazda logo is framed by a bright surround, and the new look gives it a decidedly more masculine appeal than the old version. Inside, the 2008 Mazda Tribute wears a handsomely blocky new dash, with piano-black plastic trim and a chunky steering wheel.
