Great College SUV
Vehicle
2007 Saturn VUE 4dr SUV AWD (3.5L 6cyl 5A)
Review
This car was purchased for my daughter to travel back and forward to college. We love the reliability, OnStar, and cargo space. We no longer have to haul her college supplies. She enjoys the interior space and thrilled with its handling. I'm no longer worried when she's on the road. Her only complaint is the gas mileage, however, she's a college kid and has to purchase her own gas.
Favorite Features
OnStar, cargo space, interior space
Suggested Improvements
Place the window controls on the door.

Great low-cost hybrid
Vehicle
2007 Saturn VUE Green Line 4dr SUV (2.4L 4cyl gas/electric hybrid 4A)
Review
I've had my Green Line for about a year. It's been completely reliable and has never been in the shop for anything but periodic maintenance. I drive on largely short trips, which is not where the Green Line's hybrid system shines. I've seen highway trips with mileage close to 35 MPG, but my overall mileage right now is at 26.1 MPG. That's better than some "full" hybrid SUVs. Generally, the GL beats the highway mileage but fails to meet city mileage rating, especially in stop-and-go traffic. If that's what you're looking for, the GL will dissapoint. For me, there's enough suburban and highway to make it a success mileage-wise. I'm very happy with the choice.
Favorite Features
The factory radio (with MP3 CD) is excellent. The fold-flat passenger front seat also helps with carrying capacity.
Suggested Improvements
Grab bars for the front passenger seat. Automatic climate control.

2007 Saturn VUE Green Line 4dr SUV (2.4L 4cyl gas/electric hybrid 4A)
Review
I just took the first step and called one. How long am I supposed to put up with this? At 17k miles the car started issuing the battery and engine malfunction warning lights with a few other icons thrown in. Then, engine shut-downs and loss of electrical power in mid-traffic. The eco light often disappears and I get no hybrid fuel economy. I just fill-up at the pump like everyone else. I use the car as a taxi. Imagine what my passengers thought when I had to pump the accelerator (and them) to safety as the engine failed and loss of electric power caused the steering wheel to lock on a local highway. Saturn just wants to keep "repairing" it with different parts. It's been a year, now.
Favorite Features
Interior cabin space; decent exterior styling for the price. OnStar feature.
Suggested Improvements
Stop making it. They already did. Obviously, they already knew something I didn't know when I came along. The new 2008 hybrid is a different full- version hybrid motor system and not this '07 garbage they put out.

Review
We had a Suburban that we only got 16 mpg. My wife and I talked about hybrids and I suggested the VUE. We love the car great gas mileage we average 28mpg around town. I like the way it handles and rides. I would get another one when the time comes. Love the car.

XM radio, heated seats

So Far So Good
Vehicle
2007 Saturn VUE 4dr SUV AWD (3.5L 6cyl 5A)
Review
Purchased last SUV VUE dealer had in stock for 2007. SUV is V-6 FWD with XM radio and some other goodies which I won't go into. Gas mileage so far is good. Most I have gotten is 25.4 MPG on short trip (154 miles) and around town I get 17 to 19 MPG. If you stomp on the gas it will suck some gas. So far so good. Satisfied so far. Want to go on longer trip over Thanksgiving and check out the gas mileage. Very happy with Saturn. Think I made good choice.
Favorite Features
Window controls. Handling seem easy. Good pick up with V-6 and good road control.
Suggested Improvements
Better quality and softer seats. Need more padding on seats. Not that great on long trips.

Awesome!

2007 Saturn VUE 4dr SUV (2.2L 4cyl 4A)
Review
I bought this vehicle at the end of June of this year 2007. Has more cubic space than most SUV's of it's size! It handles the road excellent.
Favorite Features
I love the stereo! 6 CD changer, great EQ, solid sounding speaker system and most importantly, the mp3 player jack!
Suggested Improvements
Go back to making the VUE with the 2007 dimensions. The 2008 models are smaller.

Love my Vue
Vehicle
2007 Saturn VUE 4dr SUV (2.2L 4cyl 4A)
Review
I looked at SUV's for months, finally I looked at the Saturn Vues the 2007, I looked and I looked, could not decide what I wanted, finally I went to AV Saturn, and I had the best salesman, they treated me so well, they could not do enough for me. I love this SUV it rides fantastic, gas mileage is excellent, I fill up on Monday and I can run on that for way over a week, sometimes 2 weeks, I don't go all over the place, but I go here and there, I drive it, I just do not treat it very kindly so I get good service out of it. I was thinking of trading mine for 08, but I am going to hold off till the 09i's come out. can't go wrong, it is one fantastic SUV, I love it.

I love the way it drives smooth so smooth, gas mileage is fantastic.

One Great Vehicle
Vehicle
2007 Saturn VUE 4dr SUV (2.2L 4cyl 4A)
Review
This is the first new vehicle I have bought in 15 years. I normally by 2-3 year old low mileage vehicles but I was so impressed with the Vue I bought a new one. Used Vues are hard to find. I believe this is the perfect vehicle. It is stylish, rides great and has all the room anyone could want. Mileage varries but we get 25- 30 mpg depending on driving conditions.

Former 11 time Lexus owners move to VUE
Vehicle
2007 Saturn VUE 4dr SUV (3.5L 6cyl 5A)
Review
We have owned 7 Lesux ES's & 4 Rx's and got a VUE based on towablity...We are thrilled with the car in almost all aspects, it is fun to drive, handles very well, dent resistant sides, clever inside features and a pleasure to own. We have no problems with the VUE, we have driven it 9,000 miles and towed behind our class A motorhome for another 8,500 miles...all completely uneventful. We thought that we would miss the Lexuses but couldn't get one since they are not flat towable. The VUE is simple to tow and only needs to be started every 7 hours to circulate the transaxle fluid.
Favorite Features
Towability, 3500 pound tow capacity, dent resistant panels, OnStar, XM radio, electric steering, handling and acceleration
Suggested Improvements
A more luxury feel to interior plastic componets.

Don't ever buy a Saturn Hybrid
Vehicle
2007 Saturn VUE Green Line 4dr SUV (2.4L 4cyl gas/electric hybrid 4A)
Review
We bought this car a year ago. It seemed like a good idea at the time. Hybrid, fuel efficient, American made too. We made a huge mistake. This has to be one of the worst cars ever made. The handling, ride, power, finish are all lousy. Plus, the bottom line is, our year old car is broken, and Saturn do not know how to fix it, nor do they care. Run in the other direction from this vehicle, and from Saturn in general. Never, ever, ever again will we buy a Saturn.

Replace it with a car that actually works.
