1980
the aveo 5-door hatchback was marketed as the "aveo5" in canada since its inception and in the us beginning with model year 2007. the models were sold as pontiac wave (4-door and 5-door, since the 2005 model year) and suzuki swift+ (5-door) in canada. the t200 wave sedan was replaced for the 2007 model year with the t250, coinciding with the release of the 2007 t250 aveo. for the 2009 model year, pontiac wave was renamed to pontiac g3 wave in canada. in the united states, pontiac sold the 5-door hatchback as the pontiac g3 starting in the spring of 2009. because of general motors phasing out the pontiac brand, the pontiac g3/wave is no longer manufactured after the 2010 model year, and the last pontiac g3 wave rolled off the line in december 2009, making this the last overall pontiac vehicle to roll off the line, even though the last pontiac for the american market was the 2010 pontiac g6. the pontiac g3 has the distinction of being the last pontiac-badged model introduced to the united states market before the brand's 2010 demise. for the 2010 model year, canadian models are simply referred to as pontiac g3.

in 1941 the a-body and b-body were similarly redesigned. consequently, pontiac renamed its entire line-up "torpedo", with models ranging from the low-end a-bodied deluxe torpedo (with a wheelbase), the mid-level b-bodied streamliner torpedo (with a wheelbase up from the previous year), and the high-end c-bodied custom torpedo (with the same wheelbase as the previous year).









































1941 was the last year pontiac offered a model with the gm c-body until the big "clamshell" tailgate pontiac safari and grand safari station wagons of 1971-76. for 1942, the torpedo name was assigned to the a-bodied pontiac while the streamliner became the b-bodied pontiac.
