The editors at Edmunds.com named the 2006 Pontiac Solstice as their pick for the Most Significant Vehicle for 2006 while at the Specialty Equipment Market Association (SEMA) Show. This annual award has high thresholds. The vehicle significantly changes the rules of a given segment and creates a new niche or redefines an automaker's image.
Karl Brauer, editor-in-chief of Edmunds.com noted, "the Pontiac Solstice has expanded the affordable sports roadster segment with an attractive, innovative package at a truly affordable price."
The market must be feeling the same way. Today GM announed that it will be adding a third shift at the Wilmington, Delaware plant where the Solstice is produced to meet the demands of "thousands of orders" received for this already-hot car.
