Subaru Tribeca named ‘best resale value’ in crossover segment

By: ROBINSON/BEINTEMA AUTOFILES

The 2008 Subaru Tribeca was recently named best resale value in the crossover utility vehicle segment by Automotive Lease Guide (ALG).

The Subaru brand remains an industry leader in residual value, ranking fourth overall in ALG's Industry Brand Residual Value Rankings. ALG ranks brands and vehicles predicted to retain the highest percentage of their original price after a conventional three-year lease term.

The ALG residual value awards are derived after careful study of segment competition, historical vehicle performance and industry trends.

According to ALG, the 2008 awards prove once again that compelling design, high quality manufacturing, disciplined pricing and volume programs are essential to achieve the highest residual value.

Award winners are featured on ALG.com and other automotive publications and websites dedicated to bringing the industry's best-performing models into the public eye.

Residual value is not the only feature of the Subaru Tribeca that has received acclaim.

The Subaru Tribeca is a Top Safety Pick by the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) and the U.S. Department of Transportation's National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) awarded Tribeca its Five-Star Safety Rating in both their frontal and side-impact NCAP crash tests.

The Subaru Tribeca has also been recognized for its award winning interior design and is a recommended pick by leading independent consumer publications for reliability and owner satisfaction.
