Factory specifications, fluid capacities, torque values, EPA fuel economy and the federal safety record for the 1980 Grand Prix.
The 1980 Pontiac Grand Prix Electric is defined by its electric powertrain, though the available complaint record for the model line begins a decade later and runs from 1990 through 2008. Across that span, annual filings peaked at 859 in 1997 and fell to a low of 102 in 1996, a wide range that reflects shifting reporting patterns rather than the 1980 model’s own experience. Consequently, the 1980 model year sits before the documented reliability window, leaving its early service history unquantified in the current data set.
