Vehicle Highlights
Pontiac's version of the new GM minivan shared its front-drive layout with the Chevrolet Lumina APV and Oldsmobile Silhouette, all of which had a 120-horsepower 3.1-liter V6 hooked to a 3-speed automatic transmission. The body panels of the 1990-96 versions were made of a fiberglasslike composite material, designed to absorb minor impacts and spring back without damage. Trans Sport was available in base 5-passenger and SE 6-passenger trim levels. Both featured reclining front bucket seats. Versatile interiors seated up to seven.
