Pontiac Reviews View All Reviews

Originally a maker of horse-drawn carriages, the first Pontiac automobile was introduced by General Motors in 1926 – the Series 6-27. Pontiac started off building solid, reliable cars that weren’t particularly exciting. That all changed, however, with the introduction of the 178-horsepower overhead valve V-8 engine in 1955. Sales grew substantially and Pontiac became known for building performance-oriented automobiles.
