The Saturn Vue is a right-size sport-utility vehicle that holds enough gear to satisfy buyers with active lifestyles, yet can fit into the average parking spot. The second-generation model that rolled out last year comes with either front or all-wheel drive, and includes a hybrid grade that utilizes an electric generator to save gas.
Average fuel economy for the Vue Green Line is 28 miles-per gallon: a twenty percent improvement over the four-cylinder XE. Later this year, Saturn will unveil a second hybrid model based on the same two-mode system as the Chevy Tahoe hybrid.
Priced under $25,000, the Vue Green Line comes with a full-roster of standard safety features, including front, side and side curtain airbags, stability and traction control, four-channel antilock brakes, tire pressure monitoring and active head restraints. OnStar with a one-year subscription to the basic service package automatically notifies emergency personnel whenever the airbags deploy, and can also unlock the car remotely.
An optional towing prep package allows the Vue to tow up to 3500 pounds, meeting our ALV standards. Standard convenience features include automatic climate control, a six-speaker, MP3 compatible audio system with a three-month free subscription to XM satellite radio, cruise control, remote keyless entry and redundant steering wheel controls.
