G5 more than measures up in the engine department, with a choice of two advanced DOHC powerplants. The standard engine is a 2.2L ECOTEC L4 that generates 148 hp – well above the norm in G5's class. GT models get even more muscle, thanks to a larger 2.4L ECOTEC engine that puts out 173 hp.

At Pontiac, we're so sure of the quality of G5's ECOTEC engines, we cover them with a 5 year/160,000 km powertrain limited warranty (whichever comes first). We've also engineered them with long-life features and a maintenance schedule that doesn't call for the first tune-up till the odometer hits 166,000 km.

G5 makes it easy for you to listen to your favourite music. SE and GT models are capable of playing back MP3 files stored on CD. And every G5 audio system includes a standard auxiliary input jack. Just plug in your portable music player and enjoy.

With G5's available XM Satellite Radio**, you'll enjoy an extraordinary range of 100% commercial-free music, along with news, talk, sports and comedy channels, all available coast to coast in digital quality sound.

G5's handsome, white-faced analogue gauges give you essential driving information at a glance. They're supplemented by a standard electronic Driver Information Centre that provides other important data, including the outside temperature, range on remaining fuel and current fuel efficiency.

For 2007, Pontiac offers the stylish G5 in a choice of 6 models. Whichever one you choose, you'll enjoy an invigorating, energizing experience every time you take the wheel. See below to check out what makes each G5 model special.
