Video description

A promotional video featuring Don Butler, Aztek Brand Manager for the the Pontiac Aztek - a mid-size crossover marketed by General Motors from model years 2001 to 2005, along with its corporate cousin, the Buick Rendezvous.

As a 4-door crossover with a front engine and four-wheel drive, the Aztek featured a four-speed automatic transmission with a V-6 engine. Marketed by Pontiac as a "sport recreational vehicle," the Aztek used a shortened platform shared with GM's minivans (e.g., the Pontiac Montana) featuring 94 cubic feet of cargo room with its rear seats removed. The design employed conventional rear swing-open kammback rather than sliding doors and a bi-parting rear tailgate, the lower section formed with seat indentations and cupholders. Other features included a rear center console that doubled as a removable cooler, rear stereo controls in the cargo area, a sliding cargo floor with grocery compartments and an available camping package with an attachable tent.

The Aztek has seen a resurgence in popularity and public interest thanks to its association with the TV series Breaking Bad as the car driven by main protagonist Walter White. When filming ended in 2013, one of the Azteks used in filming, which was wrecked and undrivable, sold at auction for US$7,800.
