| 2007 Pontiac G6 Pontiac Boosts G6 Performance With 3.6L V-6 VVT Engine and Six-Speed Automatic Transmission on GTP Models
2007 Pontiac G6, the exciting family of midsize cars fueling Pontiac's renaissance with striking design and crisp performance, adds a new powertrain to its impressive list of features for 2007.
From the base four-cylinder sedan up to the GTP performance models, Pontiac G6 continues to delight a whole new generation of enthusiasts. The G6 is available as a versatile sedan, sleek coupe and convertible that features an innovative all-weather retractable hardtop. The GTP convertible has been discontinued for the 2007 model year.
The top-of-the-line GTP performance sedan and coupe are now equipped with GM's 3.6-liter V-6 with variable valve timing. It is rated at 252 horsepower (188 kW) at 6300 rpm and 251 lb.-ft. of torque (341 Nm) at 3200 rpm. The engine is a state-of-the-art, DOHC powerplant that uses full four-cam phasing, rapid date processing and torque-based engine management to optimize power, economy and emissions performance.
The 3.6-liter V-6 VVT engine is mated to a Hydra-Matic 6T70 electronically controlled, six-speed automatic transmission. It is an advanced transmission with state-of-the-art clutch-to-clutch shift operation, designed for high-performance front-wheel drive applications. Clutch-to-clutch operation allows for reduced complexity and compact packaging. The six-speed automatic improves vehicle performance up to 8 percent and increases fuel economy up to 4 percent over current front-wheel drive four-speed automatics.
