The 2009 Pontiac Torrent is a mid-size SUV that was produced by General Motors from 2006 to 2009. It was built on the same platform as the Chevrolet Equinox and Saturn Vue, and shared many components and design elements with these vehicles. Despite the shared platform, the Torrent offered its own distinct styling, with a more aggressive and sporty appearance thanks to its prominent grille and larger wheels. The 2009 model year brought some minor updates, including new wheel designs and a revised interior with improved materials. Power came from either a 2.4L four-cylinder engine or a 3.4L V6 engine, mated to either a five-speed manual transmission or a four-speed automatic transmission. Front-wheel drive was the standard configuration, while all-wheel drive was available as an option.

The Pontiac Torrent was designed to be a versatile and capable SUV, offering a comfortable ride, ample cargo space, and good fuel economy for its class. It was particularly praised for its spacious and well-designed interior, which offered comfortable seating for five adults and a generous amount of cargo space, even with the rear seats folded down. However, some critics noted that the Torrent's handling could feel a bit soft and that the interior materials, while improved in 2009, were not as upscale as those found in some competitors. Nonetheless, the 2009 Pontiac Torrent proved to be a popular choice among SUV buyers, offering a solid combination of practicality, comfort, and value.
