Car fanatics are saying that Saturn Vue Green Line Hybrid is a very competent highway companion. "Saturn has delivered one of the best-handling, smoothest-riding and dead-quiet midsize sedans on the market. The Aura is just a marvel of affordable engineering. Too bad the interior lacks the same refinement as the new SUVs and trucks from GM. I dont think the company has moved fast enough to translate those top-of-the-class cabins to its cars quite yet," says David Thomas, car aficionado.

Another critic noted, "The ride is quiet at speed, and it even does the weird gasoline-engine shutoff when you come to a stop, like the Toyota Prius does. Buyers will really enjoy how the hybrid system doesn't make the car feel like any less of a performer. Theres really nothing to detract a regular Vue shopper from opting for the Green Line."
