Pontiac G6 GXP Street Edition Sedan

The Pontiac G6 GXP Street Edition Sedan reaches 60 mph in 5.63 s (100 km/h in 5.95 s) and covers a standing quarter mile in 14.29 s, tripping the lights at 97.8 mph. It clears the first 60 ft in 2.34 s and the eighth mile in 9.26 s.

Simulated, not measured — computed from published kerb mass, rated power, gearing and drivetrain, then fitted to this car’s own published acceleration figures. Dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.

Pick who it runs against, then watch it happen — and change the surface, the weather or the distance and run it again.

About the G6 GXP Street Edition Sedan

The 2008 Pontiac G6 GXP Street Edition Sedan is a front-drive electric saloon of 1,585 kg with 256 bhp, which works out at 162 bhp per tonne. With full torque from a standstill it clears the first 60 ft in 2.34 s, and the question for an electric car is usually not the launch but whether it keeps pulling: it trips the quarter-mile lights at 97.8 mph. Against the 14,946 cars in the set it is the 2,814th quickest to 60 mph, inside the fastest quarter, and the 11th quickest of the 26 Pontiacs here. Its 97.8 mph trap speed sits about where its 0-60 puts it, so it launches and pulls in roughly equal measure. The simulation is trimmed to 9 of 9 published acceleration figures for this car.

Questions

What is the Pontiac G6 GXP Street Edition Sedan 0-60 time?
The Pontiac G6 GXP Street Edition Sedan reaches 60 mph in 5.63 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. That makes it the 2,814th quickest of the 14,946 cars in the set.
What is the Pontiac G6 GXP Street Edition Sedan quarter mile time?
14.29 s at 97.8 mph. It reaches the eighth mile in 9.26 s and clears the first 60 ft in 2.34 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
How much power does the Pontiac G6 GXP Street Edition Sedan have?
256 bhp and 1,585 kg, which is 162 bhp per tonne. It is front-drive, electric, with 1 gears and a quoted top speed of 233 km/h. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
What cars are comparable to the Pontiac G6 GXP Street Edition Sedan?
Closest here on pace: Bentley Arnage Red Label 6.75 V8 405 (5.66 s), BMW 330d E90 facelift E90 (5.63 s), Bentley Azure 6.75 V8 408 (5.66 s). Each one can be raced against the Pontiac G6 GXP Street Edition Sedan in the panel at the top of this page. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
Are these real measured times?
No. Every figure on this page is produced by a physics simulation, not by a stopwatch at a drag strip. The Pontiac G6 GXP Street Edition Sedan is modelled from its published kerb mass, rated power, drivetrain and gearing, then trimmed until it reproduces 9 of its 9 published acceleration figures. Conditions are the same for every car in the set: dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.

Figures regenerated 2026-10-12. Every number on this page is computed by the simulator at build time, so the page and the app can never disagree.
