2008 Saturn Vue Green Line Pricing Announced
Saturn today announced that the all - new 2008 Saturn Vue Green Line hybrid will have a fuel economy rating of 25 miles per gallon in city and 32 miles per gallon on the highway -- the best highway mileage of any sport utility vehicle.

Saturn also announced that the Vue Green Line will have a manufacturer's suggested retail price of $24,795, making it the most affordable hybrid SUV on the market. "You can go green without going broke," said Saturn General Manager Jill Lajdziak, "and with the Vue Green Line, you also don't have to give up utility, safety or comfort."

In combined city and highway driving, the Vue hybrid's fuel economy estimate is 27 percent better than the non-hybrid four-cylinder Vue. The fuel economy estimates are calculated by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, using the government's new 2008 testing procedure that was revised to better reflect real-world mileage.

The hybrid Vue's 28 mpg combined city/highway rating gives the Saturn line-up a compact utility with significantly better fuel economy than the Honda CRV or Toyota RAV-4. The Vue Green Line also provides SUV capability with better fuel economy than that of popular sedans, such as the Toyota Camry and Honda Accord.

The Vue Green Line's highway fuel economy will allow the vehicle to travel up to 585 highway miles on one tank of gasoline, farther than any competitor's SUV. That is enough range to travel roundtrip from Los Angeles to Las Vegas, from Washington, D.C. to New York City or from Detroit to Chicago. Potential one-way single-tank trips include Atlanta to St. Louis, Denver to Salt Lake City and Milwaukee to Kansas City.

I think Saturn will have a hit with this one. Not only is it an attractive cross over with European styling, but it is also affordable and gets good mileage. Go Saturn!

Without knowing the details it is not possible for evaluation.
Is the airco electric driven like Toyota Prius? If not, the petrol engine running allways.
Is the power steering electric? If not, the petrol engine running allways.
Is the brake Electric operated. If not, the hybrid system cannot work togeteher with it and the recharge mode is not working.
Is it 4WD or 2WD?
How large is the trunk? How much heavy is the car?
How enough good the grip with "low-rolling resistance tires"? Handling on wet surface?
How does harmonize the Stability controll and hybrid system?
Crash safety?
The article and the vehicle description is foggy, displays, indicatiors, instuments... One screen is enough for display the important informations, but where are the technologies?
