Pontiac Vibe vs. Toyota Matrix Review

Handling
With their similar turning radii, the Pontiac Vibe and the Toyota Matrix definitely handle almost the same into and out of tight spots.

Utility
The Vibe and the Matrix can accommodate the same number of passengers.

Convenience
You'll definitely take the Pontiac Vibe for a fill-up almost as often as the Toyota Matrix.

Comfort
While the rear of the Pontiac Vibe provides a bit more head- and leg-room than the Toyota, there frankly isn't much of a difference.

Dimensions
The Pontiac's tank is roughly the same size as the Matrix's, though the Matrix's is a little bigger. The Vibe and the Toyota Matrix compete for the same parking spaces.

Cost
The destination charge is a standard charge for transporting the vehicle from its point of origin to the dealer. It costs approximately the same to get the Pontiac to the dealership as the Toyota Matrix. The Toyota Matrix isn't much pricier than the Pontiac Vibe as far as MSRP.

Warranty
The Toyota Matrix and the Vibe have the same basic warranty.
