Saturn VUE Specs, Engines & Dimensions (2001–2007) — First Generation
The first-generation Saturn VUE is a compact five-door SUV built around everyday practicality: a tall, upright cabin, a useful cargo area and dent-resistant polymer body panels that shrug off parking-lot scrapes better than painted steel.
A four-cylinder 2.2 gasoline Saturn VUE engine anchors the range, paired with several transmission choices. The 2.2 MT teams a manual gearbox with all-wheel drive for grip on loose surfaces, while the 2.2 AT and 2.2 CVT send power to the front wheels through an automatic or a continuously variable drivetrain for easier city driving.
