    Pontiac Vibe

    EPA MPG: 28 mpg

    RECALL ALERT:
    There are 9 recalls on this vehicle. Learn More.

    Road Test

    The Vibe boasts easy access, a roomy rear seat, a refined powertrain, and impressive fuel economy. The driving experience is sound, but the Vibe is not exactly engaging to drive. Interior fit and finish and the driving position are middling and the cabin can get noisy.
