Restyled front and rear fascias mark 2006 models of Saturn's compact-class SUV, while inside the cabin seats are new with trim accents added in wood and chrome. Vue's layout shows two rows of seats plus a rear cargo bay.

For locomotion, the wagon offers the Ecotec 2.2-liter four-cylinder engine or a powerful V6 option. The dual-cam four achieves 143 hp, while the 3.5-liter V6 runs to 250 hp. Entry point occurs with Vue in front-wheel-drive (FWD) format toting the four-cylinder engine and a manual five-speed Getrag transmission or optional four-speed Hydra-Matic automatic. Next comes Vue with the V6 and a five-speed automatic for either FWD or all-wheel-drive (AWD) traction.

A new standard for Vue is OnStar safety and telecommunication equipment, while optional gear for 2006 lists a DVD entertainment system with AM/FM/CD/DVD/MP3 player plus auxiliary jack for iPOD use.
