Richard Truett from Automotive News: The next-generation of General Motors hybrid technology will not be delayed by the phase out of the Saturn brand, Tom Stephens, GM's vice chairman of global product development, said today. But in a reversal of plans, Stephens told Automotive News that the drivetrain that was destined for plug-in version of the Saturn Vue hybrid will be delivered to fleets in early 2011 and could also be offered to consumers.

In that case I will not buy any Saturn, OR any other car from GM.
The next car that I wanted was the Plug In Vue.

Very upset!

I would have tolerated the fact that the new VUE was made in Mexico, and it's Asian styling to owned a plug in hybrid.

I heard that the new Equinox and the Cadillac SRX may get this technology...
