Which you should buy, 2016 or 2017 Pontiac Trans Am
Hybrid
The 2017 Pontiac Trans Am Hybrid was redesigned for 2017,
and it gained the 2017 Trans Am hybrid model that uses the same system as the
Firebird Hybrid, including a 2.5-liter four-cylinder engine. The 2017 Trans Am
Hybrid comes with a 3.5-liter V-6.
2017 Trans Am Hybird Review
For 2017, Siri Eyes-Free Mode is newly available on the
Trans Am Hybrid models with the optional display audio or navigation system. It
works with the iPhone allows voice-operated features such as playing iTunes,
composing and listening to text messages, and hearing emails, calendar
information and directions.
The optional high-intensity discharge headlights now
include LED fog lights. Bamboo interior trim, which is already offered on the
2017 Trans Am Hybrid, is a new option for the 2017 Trans Am Hybrid, and heated
and ventilated front seats are available with the standard simulated leather
upholstery.
The 2017 Trans Am Hybrid, a plush front-wheel-drive sedan
based on the Firebird, has long been the most popular Pontiac car model and
ranks second in brand sales to the Trans Am Hybrid. The starting price is an
enticing $37,380, including a $910 destination charge, but that doesn't include
leather, heated seats or a navigation system — options that can add thousands
of dollars to the cost.
Though 2017 Trans Am Hybrid models are starting to go on
sale now and the price increase is minimal, plenty of 2016s remain available.
Pontiac Dealers may be willing to offer generous discounts to move older Trans
Am Hybrid models.
