New Model News from Pontiac
Pontiac Torrent SUV
V-8 Grand Prix

Pontiac announced a new SUV model, the Torrent (stupid name). Judging from the photo (linked below) and the information released, the Torrent is basically a Chevy Equinox with a new grill. (Yes Virginia, badge-engineering is alive at GM.) It will fill the slot vacated by the Pontiac Aztek. (No, not the slot of the "world's ugliest car".) The Torrent is due spring 2006.

The Grand Prix will get the 5.3 liter GM V-8. Variable displacement is said to improve fuel economy 15%.
