2006 Saturn VUE
Great Little SUV
Pros: Ease of controls, access, space, reliability.
Cons: The exterior color-white.
Purchased in 2008. It has been a great small sized SUV, with no mechanical problems of any kind, and I drive approx. 600 miles a week to/from work. Fast, yet economical. Too bad Saturn has been done away with by GM, or I would buy another new one in a heartbeat.- Recommend this vehicle to a friend? Yes

2006 Saturn VUE
Hybrid Is Everything I wanted and MORE...
Pros: The split back seat fold down ability. We can put someone in a seat on a longer item in the fold down area next to them.
Cons: Wish it had a 3rd row seat!
I love the Saturn VUE Hybrid I bought new in 2006. I average 25 MPG on my Chicago Suburbs trip to work and 31 mpg on the Highways. It carries all of my stuff and my family of 4 easily...we can put a 5th in the back seat with my boys. The interior is basic, but with 2 nearly teenage boys, it works well for us. The exterior holds up to everything...including the boys soccer ball mistakes.- Recommend this vehicle to a friend? Yes

2006 Saturn VUE
Love the Low maintenance
Pros: low sporty look
Cons: doesn't make hitch install easy
The truck (redline edition) has not given me many problems. The problems I've had were do to the service dept. It's got really good power and is sturdy. Has lots of space.- Recommend this vehicle to a friend? Yes

2006 Saturn VUE - AWD
Pros: Engine and AWD.
Cons: Interior quality is not up to competition.
Advice: Shop around and you will find the performance/value is hard to beat.
Excellent power and handling. After 21,000 miles I have had no problems and get a consistent 18-20 mpg around town. Onstar and XM radio are excellent additions. All wheel drive performed well this winter. Very satisfied with the vehicle. -
2006 Saturn VUE - AWD
Pros: AWD
Cons: Front door handle locations and arm rest design
Advice: go for power seats on both driver and passenger side
Very responsive and excellent handling. The electric power steering is much better than I ever imagined. -
2006 Saturn VUE - AWD
Pros: The strong engine and smoth transmission....3.5L
Cons: The Front Seats
Advice: Be sure you can get comfortable in the front seats
I was torn between the Vue and the Pontiac Torrent,but went with the much more powerfull Vue.Yes the Vue does have some wind noise issues and the doors don't line up perfect, but they are all small thing's compared to the front bucket seats.I have the leather 6 way electric seats which I can not get comfortable in.They are small and very cheaply made. That would be my only complaint to the Vue...
