Car Review from the Great White North
Take 1 Mazda Tribute GX FWD 4 Cylinder


Canadians are used to high gas prices, so they tend to buy smaller cars, and when they buy the same cars, they buy the smaller engined versions.

You can look hard and not find any reviews of base engine models in US car publications. If you are looking for a base engine review, try canadiandriver.com.

In the link below, CanadianDriver reviews the 2.3 liter 4 cylinder version of the Mazda Tribute (essentially the same as the Ford Escape). As the review points out, the new 2.3 liter engine can adequately power the 2 wheel drive version with an automatic transmission. The previous 2.0 liter 4 cylinder wasn't even offered with an automatic transmission.
