Grand Prix offers a sedan in base SE trim and sedans
and coupes in sportier GT form and in high-performance
GTP versions. All have a V6 engine: the SE a 3.1
liter, GTs a 3.8, GTPs a supercharged 3.8. Automatic
transmission, antilock 4-wheel disc brakes, and
traction control are standard. General Motors' OnStar
assistance system and head-up instrument display
are standard on GTP, optional on GT.
Offered
on GT and GTP models, the 40th Anniversary Package
includes a rear spoiler, hood ducts, chrome wheels,
Dark Cherry paint, and unique red-and-grey interior
trim. Also for 2002, the SE gains standard cruise
control and dual-zone climate control, and GTs get
a standard power driver's seat and CD player. Grand
Prix shares its platform with the Buick Century
and Regal, Chevrolet Impala and Monte Carlo, and
the Oldsmobile Intrigue.
Essentially
unchanged in year-to-year sales for calendar 2000.
Grand Prix's next redesign has been rescheduled
for model-year 2005, two years later than previously
reported. The coupe body style may be dropped, but
sedans will share a new "W-body" platform with the
next-generation Buick Regal and Chevrolet Impala/Monte
Carlo, also due for '05. All are said to be slightly
wider outside and roomier inside than today's models.
