1991 Pontiac Protosport 4

At the 1991 Chicago Auto Show, a total of 954,785 interested viewers showed up en masse to view the newest lineup of incredible cars. The Mystique concept minivan showcased by Mercury was displayed, a Neon with a two-stroke engine by Chrysler, and the most impressive, Protosport 4 concept vehicle from Pontiac. This concept was a revolution in the possibility of a four-door Firebird. The Protosport was a concept vehicle that offered comfort for four people while still providing both performance and handling that is usually only achieved in sports cars.


The Protosport is the fourth generation of the latest series of hi-tech vehicles, as Pontiac has set its sight on creating and manufacturing affordable sports cars. Featuring four clamshell doors, the Pontiac Protosport has four-wheel steering and a DOHC V8 to power a four-speed automatic that powers the rear wheels. The Protosport features 19-inch front wheels and 20-inch wheels at the vehicle's rear.
