Pontiac Vibe


The Pontiac Vibe is a car produced in Fremont, California, USA by NUMMI (New United Motor Manufacturing, Inc), a shared endeavor between General Motors and Toyota. Prototypes were shown at the Detroit Motor Show in January 2000 and production vehicles came on the market in 2002 for the 2003 model year.

It is a short and rather tall station wagon that is being marketed as a trendy, quasi-SUV vehicle for young adults. Pontiac calls theirs the Vibe, Toyota calls their (rather more successful) version the Matrix, although lack of capacity at the NUMMI plant means that the Matrix is produced in Canada. The Vibe was exported to Japan (with minor badging changes) as the Toyota Voltz from 2002 through 2004.

The car features a standard household-style 110 volt AC electrical outlet so that common electrical devices can be used inside the car without a separate inverter.

This car is produced in an economical base model and in "sporty" GT trim.

Powertrains available for this car are a 1.8 L I-4 16 valve engine producing 130 hp on the base model, 123 hp on the all wheel drive (AWD) model, or a version with variable valve timing producing 180 hp for the GT.
