Loved the Saturn since I first walked into the dealership and there was no high pressure sales guy chasing me around or screwing me over. My whole family (wife, daughter, Mom & Dad) drive Saturn’s. The 2003 Vue I have (106,000 miles on it) gets about 22 mpg on average – I keep up with the maintenance (i.e. oil change, plugs, filters) and I’m positive this in turn keeps the mileage up (mpg).

I ended up getting a 2005 Saturn Vue AWD V6 and around town the lowest I got was around 21 mpg….then on a road trip over two mountain passes, it ended up getting 28.25 mpg. I assumed that I’d be getting around 20mpg for the highway being a V6 with AWD, but totally surprised at the mileage so far. I’m in Seattle, WA with lots of hills and I thought that would reduce the MPG, but not the case. The time where I got 28 mpg, I also had the AC running in the desert of eastern Washington. Anyone else get this good of mileage from the V6 AWD?

I have a 2004 Vue 2.2 FWD 5 Sp. manual, synth oil, some Slick 50, Techron in gas sometimes, 5% over inflation, coast with clutch in or neutral when possible, 5 mph under speed limit AND GET 30mpg to 50mpg depending on conditions, usually OVER 40MPG.
car rated at 24-29mpg. Go figure……….

I own a 2007 Saturn Vue AWD V-6, (just bought the car less than 2 months ago from a guy). I can beat all of you. I am getting only 13 MPG ,(I have measured EVERY tank). I have a bumper to bumper warranty, and Saturn can do done nothing about it!! Saturn told me that the car is fine, and they found nothing wrong with it! We even paid to have a fuel flush done, and are putting premium gas in it. If i go 5 miles down the road you can actually see the gauge going down–it is HORRIBLE!!!

I own a 2005 saturn vue fwd manual 5 and I have never gotten more than 24-25.5mpg on average. I also have a 2004 v6 saturn vue and on average drive 22-24mpg. Therefore, all of the above feedback before mine seem to be innacurate. I am also not that of a delicate driver. I have come to really love these saturn vues.

We just bought a 2003 AWD V6. The mileage is supposed to be 19 and 25, but it’s horrible. It drinks gas like like a V8. Usually between 19 and 21 on the highway. We may trade it soon.

I just bought one over the weekend. We love the car, but the mileage sucks and we’re considering taking it back. After a couple hundred miles and tanks of gas, we’re only getting 19 to 20 highway and far less city. Yuck! Might want to think twice on this one next time.

We have the 2003 w/manual trans. we have gotten as high as 32 mph on long trips and get low 20’s if hubby is driving city and I get mid to high 20’s city driving. Driving style makes a big difference in this vehicle.

We have a 4cyl. 2004 manual VUE and have always gotten gas mileage in the high 20’s, typically around 28-29, even with driving in the city and highway combined.

Our car currently has over 55,000 miles on it.
