The Pontiac Solstice was first shown as a concept at the 2002
North American International Auto Show (NAIAS) in Detroit. The
concept was designed from the ground up in less than four months.
Built on GM’s Kappa platform, the production model remained
true to the original Solstice concept, including rear-wheel
drive, two-passenger seating and a reverse hinged clamshell
hood that opens to reveal a sophisticated double overhead cam
variable-valve four-cylinder engine.
The interior of the Pontiac Solstice is oriented around the
driver, with a clean design and intuitive controls. “The
interior of the Solstice is surprisingly spacious, especially
for a smaller car,” said Lori Queen, vehicle line executive
for GM’s small cars. “We wanted to create a comfortable
environment suitable for longer drives without sacrificing the
‘personal’ feeling of a driver’s car.”
