Saturn Sky

Saturn Sky surely makes a surprising differentiation from the traditional Saturn car concept: we are talking about the first sports car in the division with an immense market success. Saturn Sky is a very new brand in the Saturn family, even if it shares some of its features with Pontiac Solstice and Opel GT: this is the case with the Kappa automobile platform that is present with all the three GM designs.

Saturn Sky comes with 18 inch wheels and two forms of motorization: you can go for the 177 horsepower Ecotec LE5 engine or the turbocharged one that creates no less than 260 horsepower. Further on, Saturn Sky brings two types of transmission, manual and automatic, and this difference reflects in the price of the vehicles too. The model produced in the Red Line is surely more expensive with a price of about $30,000; yet the five speed automatic variant is almost $5,000 cheaper.

What does the Red Line bring new in the Saturn Sky model? There is a better suspension over the average quality present with the basic Saturn Sky model, plus, the stability control is also upgraded. Dual exhausts, unique leather design in the interior with a digital control system doubled by a modern tachometer represent just a few other features of the Saturn Sky luxury variant available since the end of 2006. For customers who’d like to make changes and enhance one element or another, dealers have add-on offers, and the most common example here is the suspension upgrade.

Conversions of the Saturn Sky into more powerful vehicles is well accomplished by Mallet Cars, Ohio who have registered exceptional results with the adjustment of the car with a V8 engine. Thus the horsepower outcome is not lower than 400 with the turbocharged models going way beyond 750 horsepower. The torque or the brakes are other Saturn Sky parts that can undergo various configurations either custom-made or not.

Last but not least, Saturn Sky has been subjected to electric conversions, or at least tests are in progress in that direction by teams interested in making it more profitable as a fuel-free vehicle. No fuel consume, but the same great feeling a sports car gives? That really sounds awesome!. It goes without saying that a V8 Saturn Sky engine has a high gas consume, which is surely alarming for environmentalists. With the ever stricter necessity to use the planet resources wisely, time may come when fuel-powered engines be banned from car production.
