2009 Saturn VUE Reviews, Pricing & Specs
Write a reviewThe Vue gets greener for 2009, as Saturn unveils a new addition to the compact SUV's lineup. The Saturn Vue Green Line 2 Mode Hybrid trim, new for 2009, combines two electric motors with a 3.6-liter, direct-injection gas-powered V6 engine, resulting in a powerplant that provides plenty of drive as well as class-leading fuel economy. As its name implies, the engine operates in two modes. In the first mode, which drives the SUV at speeds under 40 mph, the automatic transmission shifts power between the gas engine and one of the electric motors, or engages both the gas engine and an electric motor, while the other electric motor recharges an array of 22 batteries located under the cargo floor. The second mode takes over at higher speeds or when towing and directs power from both electric motors and the gas engine to drive the vehicle.
This helps maximize power as well as fuel efficiency, especially at higher speeds. The gas engine shuts down when the SUV decelerates or idles, and the electric motors alone provide the power to drive the SUV in reverse. Working seamlessly together, the electric motors and gas engine drive the Vue Green Line 2 Mode Hybrid from 0 to 60 in 7.3 seconds and enable the Vue to tow up to 3,500 pounds. The EPA estimates highway mileage at 32 mpg, making the Green Line 2 Mode one of the most fuel-efficient SUVs available today.
Saturn contrasts the new Vue Green Line 2 Mode Hybrid with the existing Vue Green Line Hybrid trim by referring to the former as a "full hybrid" and the latter as a "mild hybrid." At least for the time being, both will continue to exist in the Vue lineup. Other Vue trims for 2009 include the entry-level XE, the mid-range XR, and the performance-oriented Red Line, all available in either front-wheel-drive or all-wheel-drive configurations. The hybrids are front-wheel-drive vehicles.
Other than the addition of the new Green Line 2 Mode trim, Saturn makes few changes to the Vue for 2009, carrying over the redesign introduced in '08. A 169-hp, 2.4-liter Ecotec four-cylinder gas engine continues to provide the power for the XE trim, while the XR and Red Line trims receive a 257-hp, 3.6-liter V6 with variable valve timing. Naturally, fuel economy suffers for trims with all-wheel-drive or the more powerful V6 engine. The front-wheel-drive four-cylinder XE ekes out a respectable 19/26 mpg, but that drops to 15/22 for the XE with all-wheel drive, while mileage for the XR and Red Line trims average around 16/23.
Standard features for the XE trim include deluxe front bucket seats, power windows and door locks, cruise control, remote keyless entry, air-conditioning, steering-wheel-mounted controls for the audio system, and a six-speaker AM/FM audio system with an MP3 input jack and XM satellite radio. The XR adds a power-adjustable driver's seat, a leather-wrapped steering wheel, automatic air-conditioning, a roof-mounted luggage rack, and heated exterior mirrors, while the Red Line adds a sport-tuned suspension, a six-speed TAPshift automatic transmission (which enables drivers to manually shift gears using paddle shifters on the steering wheel), a rear spoiler, and large 18-inch wheels.
Antilock brakes, StabiliTrak stability control, six airbags, and OnStar also come standard across the line.

Very good/ reliable car if well maintained. Ive seen where this car seems to have problems with suspension. I feel the one Ive purchased has had considerable damage/ issues that dont show on carfax and not sure if the dealer was aware, but Ive had it a week and many issues have presented, theyve had it at least three weeks and Im sure not driven much. Though this is a discontinued auto branch it sits on the Chassis of the small Chevrolet suv and smaller Cadillac. If youre looking for fuel efficiency, this is not the car. Spacious and comfy interior, high safety ratings, above it time in modeling, easy to maintain the interior the one I purchased has what I deem high mileage but the seats arent worn to indicate suchJan 19, 2023

I disliked the seating in the car was very uncomfortable to ride in for long periods of timeThe cargo space is too small to haul anything, the gas mileage in the 3.5 v6 too much for the car and therefore very poor gas mileageJul 27, 2014

excellent size for the two of us to tow behind our motorhome. It is the same size as our 2007 Saturn Vue Hybrid so should meet our needs very well. We know that it will get a little less gas mileage but we were able to pick it up about $6,000 under book value.Apr 30, 2014

Love the look of the Vue, drives great, heated seats, sunroof, everything I love in a car but need more room with the kids. Can fit a double sit n stand stroller and then some! Just in need of a third row seat. Great pick up when you start out. And handles great. Gets about 22mpg in the winter and about 25mpg in the summer. Tires are a year old, oil changes/tire rotations regularly.Feb 23, 2013

Great car that gives the feel of a much
larger car. The ride is smooth and quite.
The look is very sexy and Euro. I would buy
this car over again.. Gas milage is not too
bad for a 3.6 V6. If You want the power
You have to let it drink.Dec 18, 2009

A REALLY GREAT CAR! It's really fun to drive, which is surprising considering it's an SUV. It's built very well, and I haven't had one problem with it. The interior and exterior are... dare I say.... sexy. The controls are easy to reach and simple to use. And the price is fair, to.Feb 10, 2009

Un de mes Demo preferé, c'est mon 3ème Vue XR(sur la photo c'Est mon premier) et je suis toujours enchanté. Bonne performance (3,6l VVT 260 hp), bonne économie d'essence, roulement trés doux aussi. l'offre est encore plus alléchante en 2009 avec le Bluetooth en plus du XM, vive BPM X81 :DNov 13, 2008
