For 2007, the mid-trim and GT were discontinued. Both first and second generation Vibe vehicles reported good sales figures. Deliveries of the second generation Vibes were done in March 2008. For its fuel efficiency and compact size, the police force of Cahokia, Illinois added the Pontiac Vibe to its fleet.

The Pontiac Vibe is affected by GM’s 2009 decision to discontinue all Pontiac vehicles. The last of the Pontiac Vibes will be produced in August of 2009.
