Pontiac Grand Prix

Grand Prix GXP's standard 5.3L V8 combines tremendous power with surprising fuel efficiency. Among its many advanced features is an Active Fuel Management® system that reduces fuel consumption during low demand circumstances by deactivating 4 cylinders. The transition is almost imperceptible and when more power is required, the engine instantly returns to V8 power.

The race-inspired TAPshift feature integrated into Grand Prix GXP's automatic transmission allows you to shift up or down a gear at will with a touch of the steering wheel-mounted paddles.

Grand Prix is built to perform over the long haul and backed with the best coverage in Canada. For the first 160,000 km or 5 years† of ownership, you enjoy a Powertrain Limited Warranty, Roadside Assistance and Courtesy Transportation should your car require warranty repairs.

Confident braking power is standard equipment on Grand Prix. Every model includes a power disc brake at all four wheels. Grand Prix GXP goes even further, with 4-wheel vented and cross-drilled discs, and standard ABS.
