The Most Popular Convertibles
Probably the one vehicle that has been known to stir up people’s emotions like no other is the convertible. Driving a convertible gives a motorist a sense of exhilaration and freedom. There are around 30 models of convertibles in the U.S. ranging from $20,000 to over $300,000. What are the most popular?
The #1 convertible for popularity is the Ford Mustang. This car rides on the identical platform as the Mustang Coupe. It also has the same transmissions and engines; this includes the V8 with 300 hp. The shape of the roofline is also similar to the coupe and has a drop top that will fold up in Z fashion.
The #2 spot belongs to the Chevrolet Corvette Convertible. This car has a 400 hp V8. It weighs only 20 more pounds than the coupe and can hit 60mph in under five seconds. This car comes with the choice of a manual top or a fabric top with five layers.
Next is the Pontiac Solstice. This vehicle sports subtle and simple styling. It has a solid shape that is smooth, as well as a wide, low stance. This convertible is the first two- seater by Pontiac since 1940. It has a 177 hp engine.
A convertible is a great choice for anyone who wants to have an exhilarating drive. These three models have a lot to offer consumers and come with new car warranties.
