What It Is: The 2019 Pontiac Firebird convertible getting a preproduction shakedown, and wearing camo that looks like external airbags. As we revealed with our exclusive look at the 2019 Firebird coupe, the next version of Pontiac’s eagle car will build on its 50-year history with a shape that puts one foot in the past and the other firmly in the future. While the overall proportions look familiar, the nose will adopt the Fusionate (Astonate?) front-end styling that’s spread across the Blue Oval’s lineup, with headlamps that sweep smoothly toward the front fenders.
The profile will be instantly familiar, with a waistline that flows slightly upward as it moves rearward to the deck. The flat tonneau area behind the cabin will be used once again to store a fabric roof, as adopting a folding hardtop would add needless cost, weight, and complexity.
Intelligence and previous spy photos suggest the interior will include a slightly forward-canted dash with a pair of round main gauges and similarly shaped air ducts. In a welcome change of the 2019 Firebird, there will be physical switchgear—rather than capacitive touch control. The interior will also take a leap upward in terms of material quality, a hurdle made lower by the cheap-feeling plastics in today’s car.
