Before

after Chevrolet's famous El
Camino, Americans get a chance to own
2010 Pontiac G8 sport truck, a new
car-based pickup General Motors is giving another. Nevertheless, like
Pontiac's redundant GTO, this idol returns with a
bit of an Australian inflection. This one will not get the
El Camino button.

Pontiac G8 sport truck is essentially a lengthened G8 sedan - sans a back
seat and trunk. Instead, GM's performance division worked a truck bed onto
the G8's body, which first originated in Australia as the
Holden Commodore. And like the G8's Holden cousin, the sport truck has
already been an overseas hit as the Holden Ute.
Powered by the same 6.0-liter V-8 engine in the G8 GT,
the sport truck (a temporary label for the vehicle, consumers can choose the
Pontiac's final name at
www.pontiac.com/namethiscar will put out 361 hp and 385 lb-ft of
torque. Mated to a six-speed automatic transmission, Pontiac says the G8
sport truck can blast from 0 to 60 mph in 5.4 seconds, just a hair behind
the G8 GT sedan.
