Pontiac Solstice is a two-seater sports car that was once produced in a short period, so the number in the Vietnamese market is very limited. According to collectors, only a few Solstice cars have been brought into the country, of which the manual transmission version is even rarer.
The car in the article has a silver exterior and a distinctive design with a classic style mixed with modernity. The body stands out with soft curves stretching from the front to the rear, creating a different appearance compared to many sports cars of the same era.
In the front, the car is equipped with a large dual grille placed low, accompanied by round fog lights arranged in the air vents on both sides. The round headlights have a classic feel, combined with the Pontiac logo placed in the center of the front of the car. In the rear, a large single exhaust pipe is one of the distinctive identification details of this model.
A notable point on the Pontiac Solstice is the front-facing open hood design - a rare arrangement on commercial cars due to complex structural requirements. This design contributes to increasing the uniqueness of the sports car from the US.
In terms of operation, Pontiac Solstice uses a 2.4-liter 4-cylinder engine, producing a maximum power of 177 horsepower and a maximum torque of 225 Nm. The car comes with a 5-speed manual transmission, rear-wheel drive, disc brakes on all four wheels and front and rear independent suspension.
The appearance of the Pontiac Solstice manual transmission in Hanoi not only adds a rare car model to the domestic market but also shows the increasing diversity in the car hobby of Vietnamese collectors.
