Pros:
  • Large doors ease entry/exit, extensive choice of drivetrains, spacious cabin, excellent crash test scores.

    WORDS OF ADVISE: TEST DRIVE TO FEEL THE DIFFERENCE IN THIS MINI-SUV FROM ALL THE OTHERS, YOU WILL BE PLEASANTLY SURPRISED! The new Saturn VUE is Sleek in design, Comfortable and head-roomy, and oh so smooth to drive!

  • Best in class . . . - 2003 Saturn VUE
    By -

    After driving quite a few cars I felt the Vue was the best choice in class. It gets very good milage with the cvt. Power is just there for you. It doesnt throw you in the seat mind you, but, suddenly your going along at a ticketable pace. All this with no jerking of the transmission. I love it

  • V6 VUE ... affair to remember - 2003 Saturn VUE
    By -

    -Thoroughly researched a new vehicle and never considered a Saturn. Now I am a Saturn fan and VUE fan. (Even toured the factory in Spring Hill, TN) -It has been everything I thought it would be and more. Each trip feels like a treat. -The V6 is smooth and powerful. The AWD should read AWESOME DRIVE. -The step in height is "butt" perfect. You just slide in side ways. No ups and downs. The tinted windows look crystal clear viewed from within. The Cruise Control is intelligent and allows for acceleration and braking without resetting. -The electric steering is the best. Heavier at high speeds and finger light at low. -Go buy one !!

  • Its a good one! - 2003 Saturn VUE
    By -

    Ive never had a saturn before and heard they were good cars. I bought my vue several months ago and have had only two problems with it. There is a grinding sound when i turn the steering wheel left or right. And the gas mileage is not at all what they said it was. Overall, its not a fancy car but it does its job. Im thoroughly enjoying the smooth ride and being able to sit up higher than a car!

  • My Saturn - 2003 Saturn VUE
    By -

    Saturn of Fremont- Everyone was so helpful & I am enjoying my new car so much. The customer service was incredible & the 2003 VUE I own is wonderful. When I first saw the VUE in person I drawn to it because it was not huge and had great gas milage. It is very quiet to drive, and does not jerk when you switch gears or speed up on the freeway. It is very smooth and the one I own (2.2L AWD) has a lot more power then I expected a 4-cyl SUV to have. I will NEVER buy from another dealer.

  • What a Vue! - 2003 Saturn VUE
    By -

    My wife bought a Saturn L200 series a couple of weeks ago. When I was looking around the showroom the Vue caught my eye. To make a long story short I bought it. So far, everything is just great. It handles fine with quick response. Everything is within easy reach. The salespeople were great. For the first time buying a car was a pleasent experience.

  • The greatest little cars in America - 2003 Saturn VUE
    By -

    This saturn is one of the best they have made. A great little all around car,very easy to get in and out of for all ages and agilities. Bonus is lots of space in the back and extra extra space with the back seats folded up. A wonderfu cross between a sedan and an SUV...also love their service!

  • LOVING this vehicle!! - 2003 Saturn VUE
    By -

    This is my first SUV and I absolutely love it!! It handles GREAT, gets terrific gas mileage, is VERY comfortable and roomy and my kids LOVE it! I get a lot of compliments on the sleek look (bought the black with tan interior). The price absolutely could not be beat! Terrific value for a great vehicle!

  • A different point of VUE - 2003 Saturn VUE
    By -

    We have had our VUE for about 6 months and we are very pleased with it. The engine has a lot of power for its size and is very responsive. We drive a lot of hours and the seats are very comfortable. Gas mileage is great too, we dont see a big difference between or VUE and the Civic that we used to drive. Plus, its just so darn cute! However, this is not an off-road vehicle;if you need off road capabilities, look elsewhere.

  • I love it!!! - 2003 Saturn VUE
    By -

    I find myself parking the Vue and not being able to leave it alone! I love the way it looks inside & out. I love the way it drives. I am a little nervous in turns, but that is mostly because of the media hype of SUVs flipping over. It handles similar to a car with a very smooth ride. I have the V6 AWD, and cannot imagine driving the 4 cylinder. Fuel economy is OK, but I had a Honda Civic before, so theres no comparison, haha. I give it an A+!
