2007 Pontiac G6

One look at the 2007 Pontiac G6 reveals that the G6 series is shifting the stress away from performance to now lay emphasis on the comfort of passengers. The additions made in the 2007 G6 make this evident. However, the vehicle does not compromise on performance at all, still providing a good 33 mpg of maximum mileage on the highway.

The base model of the sedan version of the 2007 Pontiac G6 provides two options for engines – a 2.4-liter Inline-4 delivering 169 hp and a 3.5-liter V6 producing a more commendable 224 hp. The convertible version has a 3.5-liter V6 with slightly lower horsepower, 217hp. The options for the transmission are varied, including a four-speed automatic, a six-speed automatic, and a six-speed manual (with a 3.9-liter V6).

Side curtain airbags are made compulsory in the 2007 Pontiac G6 in order to reinforce safety. A sunroof is also provided, making this car as attractive as it is comfortable.


2006 Pontiac G6

It is no wonder that the 2006 Pontiac G6 happened to be a leader in the market for vehicles manufactured by Pontiac. The earlier 2005 sedan set the standard, but in 2006, Pontiac introduced coupe and convertible versions of the G6. What was more, the convertible had a retractable hardtop.

The sedan version of the '06 G6 offers the option between a 2.4-liter I4 engine, generating 167 horsepower and a 3.5-liter V6 powering up to 201 horsepower. Even though the automatic four-speed transmission is common to all the G6 models, the GTP trim package optionally incorporates a 6-speed manual transmission as well.

The 2006 Pontiac G6 has a number of features to enhance control and maneuverability, such as the anti-skid mechanism in the GTP trim package and the optional antilock braking system or ABS. Leather upholstery, remote startup, and powered pedal adjustment make the 2006 G6 provide an unforgettable driving experience.

2005 Pontiac G6

Even though the 2005 Pontiac G6 externally gives the impression of being another sedan model introduced by an automobile manufacturer, the real situation is quite the contrary. As correctly claimed by the manufacturer, GM, this car involves new design and configuration concepts that are capable of delivering improved performance on the road.

The 2005 Pontiac G6 (also designated as the “Grand Am”) uses a V6 front side engine with a capacity 3.5 liters. The multi-point fuel injection mechanism assures a commendable 30 mpg on highways and 20 mpg on urban tracks. The four-speed automatic transmission is derived from the Malibu automobile, originally produced by Chevrolet. With it, the V6 is capable of generating up to 200 horsepower and 220 lb-ft of torque.

Comfort features in the 2005 Pontiac GT include the suave leather upholstery, a satellite radio service, and even a sunroof. Multiple airbags ensure the safety of the driver and passengers, making this a car that is fully loaded for the fast lane.
