Pontiac Montana Overview
The Montana nameplate was used as a trim level of the Pontiac Trans Sport van from 1997 to 1998, but dropped the Trans Sport name for 1999. This generation was similar to the Buick GL8, the Chevrolet Venture, the Oldsmobile Silhouette, and the Opel Sintra. The Montana came in both short and long wheelbase models. The Montana was one of the few minivans which provided seating for eight. Despite Montana's face-lift in 2005, Pontiac continued to sell the original body style for the 2005 model year for fleet use. These vehicles were purshased by rental companies and were all fully loaded. Only a limited number were sold. The Pontiac Montana has a 12-valve OHV pushrod hi-tech 3.4-litre 185-horsepower @5,200 rpm and 210 pound feet of torque @4,000 rpm V6. It did 0-60 mph in an easy 10.2 seconds. It could also easily exceed 170 km/h. It's 4-speed automatic transmission still easily beats lots of 5-speeds. For the 2005 model year, the Montana was updated to have a design more similar to an SUV, resulting in its new name, Montana SV6. The 2005 Montana SV6 used a 3.5L High Value 3500 LX9 V6 that generated 200 hp and 220 ft-lbf. For 2006, a 3.9 L LZ (V6, with 240hp (179kW) and 240ft·lb (332Nm) torque, was added as an option. For 2007, the 3.5 L V6 was dropped, leaving the 3.9 L as the base engine. Consequently, the optional AWD system was also dropped, since it could not handle the torque of the 3.9 L engine. A flex-fuel version of the 3.9 L V6 also became available for 2007, but was only available in Canada for the SV6.
