Pontiac was introduced in 1926 as a companion make for GM's more expensive Oakland cars. It quickly outsold Oakland and replaced it entirely by 1933, becoming one of GM's dominant divisions.
GM agreed to discontinue the brand while restructuring in the late 2000s. The last Pontiac, a white G6, was assembled on 4 January 2010, and the dealer franchise agreements expired on 31 October 2010.
