The Solstice GXP is high-performance variant of the popular rear-wheel drive, two-seat roadster from Pontiac. It was added to the company's lineup for the 2007 model year and onward.
The Solstice GXP comes with a turbocharged, Ecotec 2.0-liter 4-cylinder engine rated at 260 horsepower that can be mated to either a close-ratio 5-speed manual transmission or a 5-speed automatic. Riding on a standard performance suspension using Bilstein adjustable-valve, monotube shock absorbers, the GXP features 18" polished aluminum wheels with 18" chromed wheels as an option.
The Solstice GXP offers a wide variety of standard and optional safety equipment. GM's Onstar Services, which includes AccidentAssist, crash notification, fuel station location, hands-free calling, concierge services, turn-by-turn navigation and vehicle diagnostics, is available. In addition to Onstar, the Solstice GXP includes standard front air bags and antilock disc brakes at all four corners. GM's StabiliTrak Dynamic Control System is also standard on the Solstice GXP.
For 2008, the Solstice GXP offers two optional packages: a personal audio link that integrates an Apple iPod and a premium package that includes leather seats, 3-spoke leather-wrapped steering wheel and steering wheel accessory controls.
