2007 Saturn VUE Green Line Hybrid

Model Trims Available

All new for the 2007 model year, the Saturn VUE Green Line Hybrid is a 4 door, 5 passengers SUV that provides up to 20 percent better fuel economy than its non-hybrid counterpart. At 27 mpg city and 32 mpg highway, it also has the best highway rating of any hybrid SUV currently on the market. Available in one trim only, the 2007 VUE Green Line Hybrid is equipped with a standard 170-HP, 2.4-liter, 4-cylinder engine with variable valve timing and is teamed with an electric motor-generator.

The 2007 VUE Green Line is consider a Mild Hybrid and is the first vehicle in the GM's line to use Belt Alternator Starter (BAS) system. A large electric motor is connected to the crankshaft via a special accessory drive belt, with a modified 4T45-E automatic transmission fitted. The Vue Green Line uses sophisticated controls and a unique electric motor/generator mated to a 2.4L VVT four-cylinder engine and 4T45-E four-speed transmission. It is a simple and flexible hybrid design that provides additional power from the motor/generator during acceleration and allows increased fuel economy through engine shut-off at idle, fuel cut-off during deceleration and the capability to capture electrical energy through regenerative braking.

The Green Line hybrid version is expected to cost only about US$2,000 more than a similarly-equipped VUE, and with MSRP of $22,370 making it the most affordable hybrid SUV on the market today. The Vue Green Line is one of 12 hybrids GM will launch, providing customers with several levels of fuel economy savings at different price points on vehicles ranging from cars to full-size SUVs.
