Overview & Reviews

Revised interior and exterior trim details freshen up the interior of Saturn's SUV. Four-cylinder models get new machined alloy wheels in place of last year's painted alloys, along with new seat fabric, and a four-speed automatic transmission in place of the former CVT unit. All-wheel drive is no longer available on four-cylinder Vues.

• Strong V6, spacious cabin, comfortable ride, excellent crash test scores, good fuel economy.

• Too many low-grade and ill-fitting interior materials, undersized front seats, vague steering.

  We love our VUE - 2005 Saturn VUE
  By Marlene Boothroyd - January 4 - 10:03 pm

  We purchased our 2005 VUE to tow behind our 40 motorcoach. It tows like a dream. You never know it is there. We find the color (Dragonfly Green) does not show the dirt from the road and rinses off easily. We especially like the added space in the rear that holds a full cart of groceries and then disappears into the floor when not in use. Our dogs have plenty of room when the back seats are folded down, but a bonus is, one seat can be used while the wider of the two is folded or visa- versa.Easy loading from back or side doors, too. In our opinion, this is the best mid size SUV and it doesnt cost an arm and a leg. Also two full size bicycles fit inside when we need to use them, a huge plus.

  Great SUV, Great Price! - 2005 Saturn VUE
  By Jer - December 25 - 10:03 am

  This vehicle has been one of my best. I traded in my Jeep for my VUE and have never looked back. It is stylish enough to not feel like Im driving a minivan, but practical so that I can transport my two kids.

  Repeat buyer - 2005 Saturn VUE
  By Teri - December 19 - 11:03 pm

  I had one of vivid yellow SC2s and loved it. However, I needed something that my elderly father could easily get in and out of, and the VUE is perfect. My father easily slips into and out of the vehicle with no problem. The ride is smooth and quiet. I love this vehicle! We will be buying one of VUE Redline editions in the spring.

  So far so good - 2005 Saturn VUE
  By Traci - November 5 - 6:50 am

  This is my second Saturn, but my first truck. I love the way the VUE looks, however I feel its cheap inside. I find it dumb that there is no switch for the rear passenger to roll down the window! So if they want the window down they have to ask me. What was the point of window locks? The steering also has a lot of play in it, but overall I like it and would suggest it. My truck is still so new so I havent found anything wrong except my wheel bearing went already.The gas mileage for some reason doesnt seem so efficient but that could be with all trucks.

  My Saturn - 2005 Saturn VUE
  By debra merryman - September 27 - 9:46 pm

  I love my Saturn. It drives very nice and I can get in any spot. It is very big inside and I use it to pick up supplies for work all the time. This SUV was made for shopping.

  By Traveling Man - September 7 - 1:23 am

  The 2005 VUE is a pleasure to drive. It is balanced, and has the power to stay on the road with the biggest SUVs out there. The Saturn Vue it is also very economical too! I drive with my family becasue we do not prefer to fly. We have been to Natchez Mississippi, Denver, and Little Rock. We have driven to San Francisco several times and the Vue handles like a dream. My next family car will be a Saturn. By the way, my wife drives a Saturn SL2.

  Looks better than what it is - 2005 Saturn VUE
  By upset in R.I. - August 24 - 5:40 pm

  This was my dream vehicle. As to date, I have had to change the rotors 3 times and resurfaced 1 time. The pads have also be changed a few times. The selonoid gauge in the gas tank bangs really load and that is said to be normal. You hear more squeeks than children in the back seat. I also had to replace the strutt assembly because of noise. This car seems to have fallen apart after its first year of life. What a lemon I got!

  What a fun little ride - 2005 Saturn VUE
  By beckaroo8026 - July 20 - 12:53 pm

  I love it bacause its fun to drive , easy to park, and has fast pickup. I can easily see using the review mirror, which is where the Equinox lost me. We have the Redline, which my husband picked for the 18 inch wheels and lowered suspension. No sway in turns. Its way more fun then my LeSabre.

  Happy Vue Owner - 2005 Saturn VUE
  By Vue04 - July 4 - 7:10 am

  Engine and transmission are excellent. Handling average for a small SUV. Interior layout good, but materials could be better. Seat cushion is too short and flat. Exterior styling is aggressive and unique.
