2024 Pontiac Firebird Revival: Is It Even Possible?

With some rumors flying around about the revival of iconic and legendary nameplates, it’s pretty understandable if there is also a rumor about 2024 Pontiac Firebird being back to the industry. After all, the Firebird has similar reputation as Camaro or Challenger or Mustang, and it doesn’t hurt if people want to have such a ‘good stuff’ being brought back again to the market.

The Pontiac Firebird has its time of glory. Not to mention that it has its own unique appeal and style that are completely different from today’s modern vehicles. However, the company had to stop producing the Firebird in 2002. Later on, Pontiac had to stop producing and the brand was just gone in 2010.

Unlike the Camaro who has experienced a modernizing treatments (because the brand has existed for decades), the Firebird didn’t have the chance. The brand and the nameplate simply stopped producing before modernization attempts take place. They have never even seen the daylight of electrification!

What about Powertrain?

It’s unlikely that the Firebird would be made soon enough. Most auto manufacturers are busy with their upcoming electrification productions because they all have targets (and deadlines) to meet. Most of them have to meet those targets before 2030. It’s possible to manufacture Firebird with the regular gas unit, but auto manufacturers are switching to electrification for a reason, and they aren’t really sure that the Firebird would sell well.

Modern Rendering Images of the Firebird

Rendering artists who are also auto enthusiasts have created several rendering images that show what the 2024 Pontiac Firebird would look like, if there is ever modern manufacturing process being involved. From the exterior appeal, the vehicle looks somewhat stylish and good looking. The car still keeps its retro and classic design, and yet there are several modern accents being added into the style.

There are different rendering images of the Firebird being made. One of them is an all white sedan, while another one is a black vehicle with coupe look-alike model. The images show that the modern Pontiac Firebird can look masculine, manly, and unique. If auto manufacturer can add advanced features and sophisticated technologies into the entire construction, it would be even greater. It’s highly likely that it would be a promising vehicle if it is manufactured (again).
