Pontiac Vibe Review - Kelley Blue Book

Pontiac Vibe. In the automotive world wagons are often considered uncool. Were not sure why. A compact wagon like the Pontiac Vibe carries lots of gear, is reasonably priced and looks nothing like the dowdy station wagons of yore. It might not be the coolest car on the block, but buyers who need a vehicular companion for their active lifestyle will find a lot to like about the Pontiac Vibe.

Welcome to our comprehensive Kelley Blue Book review of the Pontiac Vibe.

The current generation Pontiac Vibe is slightly larger than the model that was originally introduced in 2003, but overall its personality remains the same. The Vibe continues to provide an engaging driving experience, a roomy and practical interior and available all-wheel drive, all wrapped up in stylish sheet-metal.

I would prefer this over the matrix.

I just got this exact car. Red, loaded and you know what, I am VERY pleased with it. It's all I ever wanted in a car. And the automatic/shift option is awesome. Very pleased consumer....

I just hate how you cant get all the features with the 1.8 liter motor...

[qin2846]

it has a japanese heart. that's why it's great

[federalwarhawk]

I heard the Matrix/vibe is really loud, wind/road noise/engine roar at highway speeds,

and is really bad on snow, unless you have the AWD. are either true?

[richie2nice]

why does it seem that the older model has more interior room (for storage)

@23TallGuy both engines in this car are made by Toyota. It is the sister/brother to the Matrix.

Mmmm...love the KBB girls. I just got a used low kilometer 2009 base with the 2.4l and the 5 speed auto. I'll be posting a first impression video and review shortly.

@NCSportsMan70

That would be great!

[NCSportsMan70]

@mizzpink98z24cavi Good luck with it, i'll let you know what I end up with

@NCSportsMan70

It would make a great first car. I too was considering a mazda but only in the car style. My next car is going to be a BMW. I know, expensive car, but I have always wanted one. That is if my car dies. I hope it doesn't honestly..

@mizzpink98z24cavi Thanks for the advice, i'm looking for a first car. Right now I am considering a 2 Door Tahoe, Mazda3 Hatchback, and the Vibe.
