Road and engine noise are not the best, but hey it's an economy car. I did the normal maintenance (update 1-15-21), and have not done any unexpected repairs, replaced shocks and brakes (normal wear/tear), and the car has been very good to me. Keep up on the maintenance and repairs and this car will run forever. 4 speed automatic transmission shifts VERY smoothly. Overall a great driving car for what it is. Cargo space is good and expandable to one back seat down, both and even the front passenger seat folds if needed. There's even (flimsy) cup holders in the back and storage space under the trunk floor (it's not much space though). Climate controls are Toyota and very easy to figure out. The ride can best be described as firm but not punishing, well controlled. A good driving position for tall people still leaves your feet a little closer to the pedals than you'll really be comfortable with, but, minor issue. The outlet will shut down if the limit is exceeded. XM radio and stability control are nice touches, although I've tried to provoke the VSC and it seems to kick in a little late (this could be due to Pontiac's marketing of a "sporting" demeanor.) They put an actual 115 volt household outlet in the car too, although there is a cutoff point to how many watts the plugged in object can be. Easier to get into and out of than lower slung cars. Great match to the automatic 4 speed transmission. ![]() A used 2010 Vibe has a price range of 7,000 - 8,275, so it’s an excellent option for budget-conscious.

Since it’s the last Vibe model year, it offers an excellent track record in reliability and safety, making it an ideal family car. This model was equipped with GM's auto-crank technology (flick the key to start and release, the starter will keep cranking until the engine catches.) It's the Toyota 1.8 from the Corolla and it's excellent in this car. If you believe newer is better, it’s hard to go wrong with the 2010 Pontiac Vibe. The engine is great, starter is quiet for an economy car. It's what the Kia Soul should have looked like, if the Soul were a hatchback as in a normal, not boxy car.
