2008 Saturn Aura Green Line Hybrid Review Summary

What reviewers liked most about the 2008 Saturn Aura Green Line Hybrid:

• Well, the people have spoken, and they already seem to think the Aura is a handsome car. We do.- Car and Driver

• The Aura looks larger and more mature than its platform-sharing sister sedans. It bears the new Saturn styling direction first seen in the Sky roadster, and it looks good here.- Cars.com

What reviewers liked least about the 2008 Saturn Aura Green Line Hybrid:

• ...the mild hybrid powertrain in this car is not particularly handy at acceleration or saving fuel.- Car and Driver

• This lethargic acceleration is due also to the gearing in the four-speed automatic, which, to keep revs down at speed, stretches the ratios farther than an engine with only 159 pound-feet of torque should.- Car and Driver

2008 Saturn Aura Green Line Hybrid Comparisons:

• With a base price of $22,695, this is the cheapest hybrid on the market today, but just barely. The Aura only undercuts the Toyota Prius by $100.- Car and Driver

Best one-liners about the 2008 Saturn Aura Green Line Hybrid:

• ll you have to do to tell if the Aura Green Line is running or not is to be in it, since the 2.4-liter four-cylinder is as smooth and quiet as a riot in a minefield.- Car and Driver
