SUV Looks with Van Convenience August 1, 2005 The Relay's exterior combines clean and contemporary design with a sturdy, SUV-like stance. Wide, prominent, exposed C-pillars – an SUV styling cue – reinforce the Relay's strong yet refined look. Standard 17-inch, six-lug wheels and wide tires also contribute to a robust, aggressive SUV-like stance. The optional exterior brushed aluminum roof rails complete the picture. These uniquely designed rails are tubular-shaped with a satin finish, which help give the vehicle a rugged, purposeful stance. The Relay 2 features standard steel wheels with a composite center bolt-on disc, a six-spoke design and the Saturn emblem in the middle. The uplevel Relay 3 has six-spoke bright silver painted aluminum wheels that feature Saturn's emblem. Two new colors, Black Cherry and Bronzed Pewter, replace the current Berry Red and Bronze Mist. While its exterior is sporty and SUV-like, Relay provides the functionality and convenience that mid-van customers need and appreciate: passenger and cargo-carrying flexibility, a high degree of safety, fuel economy, low step-in height, and excellent ride and handling. Its 50/50 split third-row bench seat can be folded to create a level load floor when combined with an available rear storage bin. The interior also features a front overhead console and a standard overhead rail system. The rail system integrates the rear HVAC and audio controls, lighting and rear-seat entertainment system/DVD into a single unit. Its snap-in storage and accessory modules provide more functional, flexible storage. Each of the available three storage modules is about 12 inches (305 mm) wide and 9 inches to 10 inches (229 mm to 254 mm) deep, with doors that flip open. These allow customers to snap in any variety of specially designed inserts, for items such as CDs, DVDs, sunglasses, cell phones, PDAs or a first-aid kit. The Relay also offers a rear storage system. With its doors closed, the box-like cargo system's height lines up with that of the folded third-row seat, providing a level load floor for carrying items behind the second row. The cargo system's doors line up with the dividing line on the split/folding third-row seat, allowing users to create a flat load floor for carrying long objects on one side while permitting passengers to sit on the other side. Second-row bucket seats can be folded and tumbled up against the front seats for increased storage, and an available toy box can be installed between them (Relay 2). Captain's chairs, standard on Relay 3, fold flat to permit long objects such as building supplies, ladders, etc.
