When the G6 Sedan was first released, America got to get their first glimpse through Oprah Winfrey
31st August 2009
She famously gave an entire studio audience, 276 people, each a Pontiac G6 of their own. By releasing the car nationwide by donating 276 cars to people on an incredibly popular talk show, Pontiac succeeded in making the G6 a household name overnight. However, soon after the show debuted controversy began. Though the sedans were given to people in need in Oprah’s audience, the taxes were not paid. Many of the winners were unable to even keep the vehicle because they simply did not have enough money to cover the cost of taxes.
The Pontiac G6 Sedan is also used in racing. The G6 took the place of the GTO.R in the Rolex Sports Car Series. Also, the G6 GXP is involved in Powerade Drag Racing. Though the G6’s marketing campaign was incredibly different than that of its competition, the maker succeeded in creating a brand that all became familiar with very quickly. Since then, other makers have been pushing vehicles more and more on talk shows by giving them away to deserving audience members. However, none have done it on quite the grand scale that Pontiac did.
Pontiac released a G6 convertible. The retractable hardtop put the G6 convertible in the running with much more expensive car brands, such as the Infiniti G35. The GT trim of the G6 came with TAPshift, much similar to the AutoStick. The TAPshift gave the G6 the ease of driving an automatic, but allowed the driver to upshift or downshift manually when necessary. The 2006 model year also introduced 201 horsepower, a much needed boost for a car marketed as “sporty.” It was not until 2007 when Pontiac gave the G6 GT an engine upgrade to a 3.9L V6 that produced 252 horsepower. The latest G6 trim is the GXP. The GXP had a revamped front end and featured two air scoops on the hood.
The Pontiac G6 was originally unveiled at the 2003 Detroit Auto Show. The G6 was put in place to reinforce GM’s idea that their daughter division was the sportier of the bunch. The Pontiac G6 was and still is available as a sedan, convertible, or coupe. In 2005 the G6 was ranked at number eleven in the top selling cars in America.
The G6 Sedan comes standard with a 2.4L Ecotec LE5 4-cylinder engine, producing up to 169 horsepower. In the 2005 model year, Pontiac released a G6 convertible. The retractable hardtop put the G6 convertible in the running with much more expensive car brands, such as the Infiniti G35. The GT trim of the G6 came with TAPshift, much similar to the AutoStick. The TAPshift gave the G6 the ease of driving an automatic, but allowed the driver to upshift or downshift manually when necessary.
Oakland Motor Car line, the Pontiac name was actually first used twenty years prior by the Pontiac Spring and Wagon Works, and linked to Chief Pontiac, who had led an uprising against the British shortly after the French and Indian War. In 1908, Pontiac and the Oakland Motor Company decided to merge under the name of the Oakland Motor Car Company, and their operations were joined in Pontiac, Michigan, to build the Cartercar. The next year, General Motors purchased Oakland.
The first General Motors Pontiac was conceived as an affordable six-cylinder that was intended to compete with more inexpensive four-cylinder models, and it was outselling Oakland within months of its introduction.
Pontiac’s 2010MY Roster Limited to the Vibe
4th August 2009
As you all know, the Pontiac era is scheduled to end by late 2010 so it comes to no surprise that the only model offered for retail sale in General Motors’ 2010 Product Guide for the United States is the Vibe - most probably because of the fact that it is produced by GM’s joint venture with Toyota called NUMMI. The compact crossover continues in the new model year with a few minor upgrades.
Only a week after General Motors stated that the Vibe would be the only Pontiac model to be offered for retail sale in the brand’s 2010MY portfolio, the automaker announced today its decision to discontinue production of the compact crossover by the end of August 2009. The Vibe is produced alongside its sister model, the Toyota Matrix, at the New United Motor Manufacturing Incorporated (NUMMI) facility jointly operated by GM and Toyota in Fremont, California.
Pontiac began by selling cars offering 40 hp
3rd July 2009
The Chief sold 39,000 units within six months of its appearance at the 1926 New York Auto Salon, hitting 76,742 at twelve months. The next year, it became the top-selling six in the U.S., ranking seventh in overall sales.[1] By 1933, it had moved up to producing the cheapest cars available with straight eight-cylinder (inline eight) engines. This was done by using many components from the 6-cylinder Chevrolet, such as the body. In the late 1930s, Pontiac used the so-called torpedo body of the Buick for one of its models, just prior to its being used by Chevrolet. This body style brought some attention to the marque.
The Pontiac brand was introduced by General Motors in 1926 as the ‘companion’ marque to GM’s Oakland Motor Car line. (1926-2009) The Pontiac name was first used in 1900 by the Pontiac Spring & Wagon Works. The name was taken from Chief Pontiac, an American Indian chief who led an unsuccessful uprising against the British shortly after the French and Indian War.
