For 2010, the Mazda Tribute undergoes a few minor changes. The V6 engine now gets better fuel economy and can run on flexible ethanol fuel. All models receive automatic locking doors, speed-sensitive stereo volume control and exterior temperature gauge, while the GT receives a garage door opener, new vanity mirrors, and an auto-dimming mirror that displays a backup camera view when the vehicle is in reverse.

A sister vehicle to the Ford Escape, the Mazda Tribute comes with a 2.5-litre four-cylinder or 3.0-litre V6. The four-cylinder comes with a five-speed automatic or optional six-speed automatic, while the V6 uses the automatic exclusively.

Trim levels are the GX, GS and GT. The GX comes with the four-cylinder or V6, in front- or all-wheel drive. The GS and GT use the V6 exclusively; the GS comes in front- or all-wheel drive, the GT only with all-wheel. Adding the all-wheel drive to the GX or GS models adds $2,400 to the price and can only be ordered with an automatic transmission.
