The 2008 Pontiac Aztek features more maximum cargo capacity than Ford Explorer, Jeep Grand Cherokee and Dodge Durango, combined and offers more than 16 configurations for its interior seats. The new 2008 Pontiac Aztek is both versatile and rugged, and offers SUV power, minivan comfort and the feel of a sport sedan. Perhaps most impressively, the truck was the first SUV to earn a four-star rating in the rollover resistance category from the National Highway Transportation Safety Association, the best rating ever for a car of this size. New for this year, the Aztek comes in two models - the Aztek front- wheel-drive model, and the Aztek with Versatrek All-Wheel-Drive. Whichever Aztek works for you, this is the top Website for Pontiac Aztek reviews and news about all of the latest 2008 Aztek accessories.

The first bit of information we have in our 2008 Pontiac Aztek review is performance-oriented. Every Aztek comes standard with a 3.4-liter 3400 SFI V-6 engine that delivers 185 horsepower at 5,200 rpm and produces 210 pounds-per-foot of torque at 4,000 rpm.
