2008 Pontiac Torrent GXP Preview
What’s Under the Hood
 

Good stuff here, the Torrent GXP’s powertrain is a sophisticated 3.6-liter double overhead-cam V6 engine with variable valve timing connected to a six-speed automatic with a manual TapShift feature. Making 263 horsepower on regular unleaded and driving the front or all four wheels, the Torrent GXP accelerates to 60 mph in 6.9 seconds. Other performance tweaks include a stiffened and lowered suspension, 18-inch wheels with 235/50R-18 tires, and a hydraulic rather than electric assist steering system. Stability control, four-wheel-disc brakes with ABS and panic brake assist, and a tire pressure monitoring system are also standard.
