The pitch for the Saturn Vue Green Line is “the most affordable SUV hybrid.” In other words, this Vue appeals to your inner accountant. The numbers would impress any CPA. For $24,200, the Green Line delivers EPA fuel economy ratings of 25 mpg in town and 32 on the highway, which is the highest highway rating for any sport utility. It’s not the most exciting SUV hybrid, because it’s currently the only one in the bunch that is a so-called “mild hybrid”—meaning that it can’t launch forward in all-electric mode. In late 2008, the Saturn Vue Green Line will be offered with GM’s two-mode full-hybrid system.
