Saturn Outlook revealed in NYC

Here are the first official photos of the upcoming Saturn Outlook mid-large SUV. Roughly the size of a Chrysler Pacifica, the Saturn Outlook made its debut at the NY Auto Show today. I'm really excited about this vehicle, because this vehicle sets new standards (at least for GM) for interior, drivetrain, and chassis refinement. It also looks a heckuva lot nicer than most of the vehicles in its class, including the Ford Freestyle and Toyota Highlander (which is arguably the blandest looking SUV out there). Based on the unibody Lambda platform, it comes with a 265hp 3.6L V6. and an all-new 6-speed automatic transmission. It offers true 3-row seating, and pretty decent towing and off-road capability, especially considering its car-based roots. The Outlook is expected to go on sale later this year as a 2007 model. Its main competition includes the upcoming 2007 Acura MDX, which is also expected to be unveiled in NY this week, although if this artist's rendering is any indication of what to expect, I won't need to worry about getting enough ZZZZZs before my Project Management Exam this Friday.
