G6

After making its debut last year, the mid-size G6 sports sedan adds coupe and convertible versions to the line for 2006. It's built on General Motors' global "Epsilon" platform, which also provides the basis for the Chevrolet Malibu, Malibu Maxx and Saab 9-3. The base and GT models come powered by a 200-horsepower, 3.5-liter V-6 engine, while a top GTP model offers a high-output 3.9-liter V-6 that uses variable valve timing and active air intake technology to produce 240-horsepower. A 2.4-liter 170-horsepower "Ecotec" four-cylinder powerplant is also offered. A four-speed automatic gearbox with manual shift mode comes standard, and an all-new six-speed manual is available in GT and GTP models. Side- and side-curtain airbags, the OnStar communications/safety system, and adjustable brake and accelerator pedals are optional. For 2006, all G6 models are updated with a passenger airbag sensing system, a new three-spoke steering wheel, standard four-way drivers seat with power height adjuster, available automatic climate control (it's standard on the GTP) and a single antenna that combines OnStar and XM Satellite Radio.
