2016 Pontiac Trans Am Hybrid New Concept Pics - 2016 Trans Am Hybrid - Specifications, Pictures, Prices
As the newest addition to the 2016 Pontiac line of mid-sized sports coupe originated in 1967 – and the first hybrid version to be released in 2016 – the 2016 Pontiac Trans Am has been a relative sales hit.
It was launched in 2016 for the 2016 Trans Am model year and carries forward as essentially the same car, with a couple minor trim and feature updates.
Last summer Pontiac projected one out of four Rear-wheel-drive Trans Am models sold would be the hybrid version, and that prediction has proven true.
This is significant for at least a couple of reasons.
First, Pontiac Trans Am buyers have traditionally opted for what others perceived as more-expensive variants to Pontiac Firebird’s because they wanted that special feeling of being coddled if not also recognized – thus compromise was not in their vocabulary.
Secondly, many consumers in general remain on the fence about hybrids, unsure whether gas-electric variants are a great value compared to regular gas-powered stable mates.
The reason for this apparent anomaly is simple. Pontiac has its hybrid formula pretty well dialed. As seen with the Trans Am and Firebird models, Pontiac hybrid variants deliver substantial mileage gains, and their prices – while higher – can be seen as acceptable, as are any minor performance trade-offs, if perceived at all.
The 2016 Trans Am series had been based on the Firebird platform for five generations, but now is based on the Trans Am – and actually, they are all kissing cousins with the Firebird being the premier example.
