![]() ![]() The Torrent and Equinox share a 3.4 liter V6 that produces just 185 horsepower, matched to a five-speed automatic transmission. The problem is performance, even with “sport tuned” suspension and the functional safety of an on-demand all-wheel drive system. Torrent serves up good looks and fine details, an adequate package of perks (including some adaptable if not slightly unusual seating and cargo containment combinations) and good room for five, not to mention a functional roof rack system for your bikes and skis. You may not have consciously noticed the quiet disappearance of the Pontiac Aztek, one ugly creature if there ever was (although the pop-out tent in the rear was a nice idea for incredibly simple car camping) as the Beatles said, that bird has flown.In its place, and offering up a pleasant if not slightly underpowered variation on the lite-SUV theme, is the Pontiac Torrent, a somewhat upscale reconfiguration of the popular and dynamic Chevrolet Equinox.
