The Sport trim is the most sparsely equipped of the three Tribute styles, but it still comes standard with air-conditioning, full power accessories, cruise control, a CD player, and an auxiliary audio jack. Some upscale options are also available, including an auto-dimming rearview mirror and a rear-seat DVD entertainment system.

The "s" badge signifies the addition of a 3.0-liter V6, which delivers 200 horsepower and 193 pound-feet of torque. This engine is mated to a four-speed automatic transmission, routing power to all four wheels. The s Tributes will achieve 18/24 mpg fuel economy when equipped with all-wheel drive and are able to pull 3,500 pounds.
