V6 & V8 Engine Choices For Pontiac G8 ST

Posted on 02 July 2008

Since the unveiling of the Pontiac G8 ST Ute at the New York Auto Show, Pontiac has communicated that the El Camino, ST, or whatever it will be named, would be offered with the identical the 361-hp 6.0L V8 power plant that is found in the Pontiac G8 GT.

G8 Nation has been told that Pontiac is now considering an additional power plant offering. It’s no surprise that this would be the same 3.6L 256-hp V6 found in the G8 V6 sedan, and would have the same 17/25 mpg fuel economy as the V6 sedan.

Pontiac Communications Manager, Jim Hopson said, “I understand there is some discussion about possibly offering the V6 engine in the sport truck. Again, I’d like to know your readers’ opinion, which I will pass on to the marketing and engineering teams.

Time for another vote and our results will be shared directly with the Pontiac marketing and engineering teams.

Do you think Pontiac should offer two engine choices (V6 & V8) in the 2010 Pontiac G8 ST?
