The car experience of ours is that journey with a natural air is the most splendid experience. Just imagine that you are driven with a fabulous mood of having a great time spending with your family and the climate is also most pleasant and then while driving you just get connected with the open sky above, natural beauties beside and the smoother roads beneath and above all your near ad dear ones just beside you, how great fantasy!!
The same fantasy can be made truth with the great help of Pontiac Solstice. It is the roadster with the best benefit of having the open roof and also the additional benefit of having the natural connection by the medium of open roof facility. Let’s start the journey towards one of the most exclusive stylish car.
The Style
It’s the world of style. People have started believing that everything they could have must increase their styling and improve their impression. Car is also one of the media to impress the people with the stylish mood and also with posh mood of becoming the centre of attraction. So, the cars are no more just media to travel, it has also achieved the post of style statement.
The Pontiac Solstice was actually introduced last year but it could not get the appraisal from the people and could not become the style icon for the people as the design was actually quite traditional. So, even while this launching, we were expecting some of the boring car view, but the moment we saw the car it was absolutely stunning moment. No one could ever believe that there could be anywhere so much change in any of the exterior of the car!! It’s amazing; the exterior is made of some of the most thrilling patterns and also in the unique and most distinguished manner.
The car is available in both the manner of soft top and also in the coup style. But still it has got so many features that are able to rock any of the viewers. The best point is that the car style is never less than the most reputed and sold brand of Audi, BMW and even the Z4, but still the price of the car is half to those deadly darling cars. The heart of the car is the smarter ad sleeker roofline. The roof makes the car a top car. The centre section is intentionally kept open for the open air driving pleasure. This roof line is the most happening of the car.
This style icon has still just one loose point and that is the time consumption of at least a minute or two for the lowering and raising roof top. Also it needs the cars to get stopped. So, there is absolutely no satisfaction in that section of the car otherwise it is always rocking.
The interior
The interior of the car is not as excellent as the exterior. There could be no complain for the exterior, but the interior requires some of the magical touch to get comparison with the exterior.
Also the internal controls are minimal impactive with some of the routine and boring features of the cars.
So, it seems that the exterior of the car was so much concentrated that they just forgot to make the interior of the car attractive!!
Performance
Performance wise even the previous model was good enough. The two trim level of the Solstice is one of the prime and prestigious experiences. The engine quality and the efficiency of the car are most spontaneous. The 2.4” litre four cylinder engines with the powerful horse power of 177 and the torque of 166 pound feet makes the car quite energetic. The car is just like a sports car and it performs very similar to that passion. It grabs the speed of 0 to 60 mph in just 7.7 seconds.
Above all these features, the turbo charged power plant is placed in the Pontiac Solstice GXP. Te popped up version also has got the grand power of reaching the 0 to 60 mph in just 5.5 seconds.
This is a record break speed with any of the coupe that is actually not the sports car and still the engines are made best for the better treatment speed level. Also the automatic transmission is one of the best features similar to all the branded stuffs.
Mileage
The world is seeing the fuel economy vehicles for them. There is a fuel problem in the world and people are now aware to conserve the energies and also to save the fuel to make sure that tomorrow should be good and the next generation gets sufficient natural resources. The turbo charger included in this car makes the car more splendid and superb. Solstice is offering some of the better quality mileage to the users. It’s 19 mpg in the city area and around 28 on the high ways. So, it’s definitely good for the end users and also the turbo charger makes its impact on the fuel conservation.
Drive Quality
It’s a fantastic driving experience to drive the Solstice. The handling is too handy and also is given a remarkable cornering grip. Also the steering performance is better and the users feel it more comfortable for the driving. The brake performance is also solid. The brakes can be used upto 120 feet range in the speed of 60 mph.
The Quality
Well as said above the exterior has no comparison and it can be considered as one of the best in the same or even the upper ranged cars but still, they have failed in the interior quality. Interior is the lowest side of the car and also it sounds so cheaper with the use of plastic in it. The cost cutting could have been done with this lower budget interior but that sounds really cheap.
The Seating Arrangement
The car is made for two so it sounds like specious cars, but it is not. It’s one of those sports car that are made for two and the style statement makes the car more and more narrower for the space for the legroom and headroom. These statements are better but still the sporty convertible is not that attractive. The hip room is not that comfortable. The seats are somewhat lower that might not suit the shorter drivers.
The Summary
There are adequate exterior features but the interior and also the quality of the interior is not too good. So, better is for the buyers who are real fan for the styling icons, which this car is!! |
