2002 Saturn VUE AWD review from North America
"A roomy, economical, reliable, and domesticated AWD"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Not one thing.
General comments?
The VUE is not a serious off-road 4x4 but it is not intended to be.
Having driven two Ford Explorers previously and one GMC Jimmy, I was ready for an AWD that is economical and has a car-like ride.
I have been very pleased with the VUE and it got me everywhere I needed to be during one of the harshest winters in recent years.
I am especially pleased with the gas mileage... an honest 25 mpg on the highway.
