The Pontiac G5 was a compact car produced by General Motors from 2006 to 2009. It was a rebadged version of the Chevrolet Cobalt, sharing its platform, engine options, and design elements. The G5 was positioned as a sporty and affordable option in the compact car segment, appealing to younger buyers who desired a stylish and fun-to-drive vehicle.
The Pontiac G5 offered a range of powertrain options, including a 2.2L Ecotec four-cylinder engine producing 148 horsepower and a 2.4L Ecotec four-cylinder engine generating 171 horsepower. The G5 was available in various trim levels, including the base G5, the sporty G5 GT, and the luxurious G5 SE. It offered features like power steering, power windows, air conditioning, an AM/FM stereo, and optional equipment such as cruise control, a sunroof, and a leather-wrapped steering wheel. While the G5 faced stiff competition from established rivals like the Honda Civic and Toyota Corolla, it carved a niche for itself with its bold styling and affordable price. Unfortunately, the G5's production was cut short due to the decline of the Pontiac brand, which was discontinued by General Motors in 2010.
