Year to Year Changes
1991 Pontiac Montana:
Trans Sports get larger sideview mirrors, with power adjustment standard on SE models. Also, all models get a stainless-steel exhaust system while a roof luggage carrier is a new option.
1992 Pontiac Montana:
Last year's SE version becomes the base model, retaining the 120-horsepower 3.1-liter V6. Standard on a new GT is GM's 165-horsepower 3.8-liter V6, coupled to an electronic 4-speed automatic. Finally, standard on all models are antilock brakes.
1993 Pontiac Montana:
After one year, the GT model is dropped, but an even more-powerful engine is made available. The optional 3.8-liter V6 provides five more horsepower and five extra pound-feet of torque--to 170 and 225, respectively. Among Trans Sport's new options are steering-wheel-mounted auxiliary radio controls and leather upholstery.
1994 Pontiac Montana:
A shorter nose and a new driver-side airbag are the primary changes Pontiac makes to the 1994 Trans Sport. The new front end cuts two inches off the minivan's overall length, but still includes integrated fog lamps. At the rear, a new center high-mount stoplight has been added. A power sliding side door becomes an option for the Trans Sport. The power sliding door can be activated by buttons inside the vehicle or on the remote-entry keyfob and is designed to stop and reverse direction when it encounters an obstacle.
1995 Pontiac Montana:
A new brake/transmission-shift interlock leads the short list of changes to Pontiac's plastic-bodied minivan.
1996 Pontiac Montana:
This year's only engine is a new 180-horsepower 3.4-liter V6. The new engine comes paired with just one transmission--a 4-speed automatic. Trans Sport would be all new for '97.
