Banning, CA (PRWEB) June 22, 2006

Diamond Hills Auto Group (http://www.diamondhillsautogroup.com), your GM dealer in Banning, CA, invites you to test-drive 2006 Torrent, Pontiac’s first SUV.

The new 2006 Pontiac Torrent’s car-like agility with SUV capability and versatility extends Pontiac’s total performance boundaries.

The Torrent has a bold, sporty design complemented by a multi-purpose interior that is configurable to countless uses, including a rear seat that adjusts fore and aft. The Torrent broadens Pontiac’s performance parameters by taking them in a whole new direction. It has the spirited, responsive driving traits of a performance sedan, but combines that fun-to-drive character with the capability of an SUV.

Torrent is one of the largest vehicles in its class and features a 185-horsepower (138 kW) 3400 V-6 backed by a five-speed automatic transmission. It is available in front-wheel drive and all-wheel drive models. Torrent also is packed with unexpected details and many standard features that are either extra-cost options or unavailable on competitors’ vehicles.

Torrent also offers a host of comfort- and convenience-minded options, including leather-trimmed seats and steering wheel, heated driver and front passenger seats, power-adjustable driver seat, 17-inch aluminum wheels, CD/MP3 stereo with six-disc CD changer and subwoofer, steering-wheel radio controls, power sunroof, multi-tier rear cargo system, OnStar and XM Satellite Radio. Roof-rail side curtain air bags and traction control also are available. (Traction control is available only on front-wheel drive models.)

The 2006 Pontiac Torrent comes with a choice of front-wheel drive or all-wheel drive. Torrent is powered by GM’s 3.4-liter V6 engine and five-speed automatic transmission. Only one trim level is offered, but with a variety of options. Standard equipment includes air conditioning, power windows, AM/FM/CD with six speakers, remote entry and automatic door locks, fog lamps, roof rails, daytime running lights, a rear window wiper, and 16-inch aluminum wheels. Safety features that come standard include ABS, a rear child-seat latch system, and the mandated front airbags. Traction control comes standard on front-wheel-drive models; all-wheel-drive further enhances safety, of course. An optional Security Package includes side curtain airbags and one year of Onstar service. Electronic stability control isn’t available. The 2006 Pontiac Torrent has received the highest “good” rating from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) in frontal crash testing.
