2009 Pontiac Vibe
Summary

The all-new 2009 Pontiac Vibe allows you flexibility in loading, signature Pontiac style that won't be old next year, and economy that applies to more than just purchase price or fuel mileage. The AWD model offers winter weather capability. The Vibe has all the attributes to be a good choice, a choice that looks better every day the price of gas goes up.

G.R. Whale filed this NewCarTestDrive.com report after driving the different Vibe models around Los Angeles.
