Saturn introduced two new variants of the completely redesigned 2008 Vue crossover utility at last Februaray's Chicago Auto Show: the performance-tuned Red Line and the affordable, fuel-saving Green Line hybrid. The Red Line builds on the new Vue's new styling with an aggressive front-end design, including a large, lower air opening and projector beam fog lamps.





The rear of the vehicle features a special fascia, spoiler and chrome exhaust tips. A lowered suspension, 18-inch alloy wheels and Red Line badges complete the performance-inspired appearance.

From a performance perspective, the Red Line comes with standard tap up/tap down transmission control and sport-tuned ride and handling. It is powered by a dual overhead cam 3.6L V-6 VVT engine that delivers 257 horsepower and 248 lb.-ft. of torque at 2,100 rpm. The engine is mated to a six-speed automatic transmission. The Vue Red Line will be available in front-wheel drive or all-wheel drive.

Interior modifications include a Red Line-only Ebony interior, including black leather sport seats with suede fabric inserts. The vehicle also features Red Line-logo instrument cluster graphics and embroidered floor mats.

Prices for the Saturn Vue Red Line will start at $27,395.
