I purchased the Saturn Vue Hybrid primarily for its gas mileage. My wife and I were searching for a new car, as we were expecting twins and we both were driving compact cars. We knew we would need an SUV, and we were hoping for something that got great mileage. We found that plus more in the Saturn Vue. We are able to go on trips and fit our double stroller easily in the back. We are also able to go to wholesale stores and load up on boxes of diapers. In addition, the room in the backseat is great, and we are able to comfortable fit in two rear facing car seats. It is a comfortable ride, and is able to handle both city driving and country road driving easily. We also got a decent amount of amenities for the price we paid! The car does have some drawbacks. It is not able to handle driving in deep (over 5-6 inches) of snow, and can get stuck sometimes. We live in farm country in Ohio, and the snow drifts and can pile. I also don't feel that it would be an SUV that would be up for hauling items via a trailer. However, as we didn't purchase it for a hauling vehicle, that is not a problem for us.

Great vehicle! Has given me no major problems in all the years I have had it. Have driven it across the US and has never broken down. Just wish I would have gotten the V6 instead of the V4. Even driving in the snow and on Ice it has held up and even kept my family and I safe during an accident.

I like the fact that it is reliable and safe but the check engine light does pop up quite a few times
