With the 2004 model year right around the corner, details have finally begun to emerge regarding changes to Saturn's L-Series line.

View Saturn's preliminary production schedule planned for the changeover to 2005 models.

Continuous improvement has always been a hallmark of Saturn, and for the 2006 model year things are no different.

General Motors' Saturn division is preparing a major overhaul of its compact Ion sedan for early 2008 and will shift production from Spring Hill, Tennessee, to Lordstown, Ohio.

Reports stating the next-gen VUE will be identical to the Opel concept may not have been accurate.

Last September SaturnFans.com reported that General Motors was planning on Saturnizing the upcoming Opel Antara GTC sport-utility as its replacement for the current VUE in 2008. Earlier today, Edmunds.com's Inside Line website posted what looks to be the first spy photos of the next-generation Saturn VUE.

Saturn brand will add a small sporty convertible to its lineup in 2006. The two-seat roadster is the first step in moving Saturn beyond its image as a purveyor of reliable but unexciting vehicles.

There's the Teutonic Aura, a mid-size sedan that drew raves at the Detroit auto show, a Euro-style roadster named Sky, a crossover dubbed "Outlook" and a successor to the compact Ion sedan. Any resemblance to today's plasticky Saturns is, thankfully, coincidental.

In barely six months, the former Marine fighter pilot already has left an indelible stamp on the long-troubled GM. Lutz has already cancelled a number of product programs, including the Buick Regal; ordered others delayed and fixed, such as the Cadillac STS, while some others have been moved forward, including a three-row version of the new Saturn VUE crossover vehicle.
