The 2017 Trans Am Hybrid Sports Coupe Concept Car will debuted on Wednesday at the Tokyo
motor show. The 2017 Trans Am Hybrid Sports Coupe Concept Car will be available
with two different powertrain options; the 2017 Trans Am Hybrid Sports Coupe
Concept Car will use a 3.5-liter V6 producing 314 hp, coupled with an
eight-speed automatic gearbox including paddle shifters. The 2017 Trans Am
Hybrid Sports Coupe Concept Car will be fitted with a 2.5-liter inline four
producing 176-bhp combined with an electric motor.
The Pontiac
spindle grill drapes across the hood between the signature headlights on the
2017 Trans Am Hybrid Sports Coupe Concept Car , sporting the latest in
Pontiac’s design motif.
The sports coupe
comes with options: either a set of 10-spoke, 19-inch wheels or a more
aggressive set of five-spoke 18-inch wheels to fit your fancy. Both options
come staggered in keeping with the sports coupe stature.
Adding to
drivability, the structural integrity of the 2017 Trans Am Hybrid Sports Coupe
Concept Car has been vastly increased through the use of thicker underbody
rocker panels. In addition to a beefed-up chassis, the front suspension uses a
double wishbone configuration and the rear uses a multilink system.
Pontiac says
that although this is a two-door coupe, there is room enough for four people.
The split-level instrumentation group is capped off with a 7-inch navigation
screen and controlled by a lower center-console mounted remote touch interface.
Additional
features on the 2017 Trans Am Hybrid Sports Coupe Concept Car includes a
upgraded blind-spot monitoring system, revised with a greater capability for
surrounding drivers at greater distances.
According to
Pontiac, the 2017 Trans Am Hybrid Sports Coupe Concept Car will be offered in
rear-wheel drive and all-wheel drive configurations. However, the American
powertrains will be announced later in 2017.
Pricing is
unavailable at this time.
