SATURNVue 2007 - 2010

　　The second and last generation of the Saturn Vue was launched in 2007 as a 2008 model year. The car was right, the times were wrong and it only lasted for two years.

　　While the 2008 world financial crisis was only a few about to turn the world upside down. While the first generation of the Vue looked like an SUV but with a smaller size and didn't get enough attention, the second generation was far better. It was based on a unibody construction and that helped it with the fuel-efficiency.

　　The second generation of the Saturn Vue was a rebadged Opel Antara/Chevrolet Captiva from Europe. It featured the same rounded shape and a chromed bar between the headlights, similar to the one found on the Captiva. Its better proportions and decent price range sent it into the 80.000 units/year category, even though the times were rough for the motoring industry.

　　Inside, the Vue featured a 5-seat only option, unlike its competitors which were available with up to seven seats. The interior design was similar to the Antara, with a straight and curved dashboard and clean instrument cluster design. On the center stack, the Vue could host either a CD-radio or an infotainment system with navigation.

　　The Vue was available with front or all-wheel-drive system. It featured independent suspension in all four corners and that ensured a higher level of comfort. The car was available with a choice of inline-four and V6 engines, mated to a 4-speed automatic and 5-speed auto, respectively.
