Long overdue and long awaited, the new LS is Saturn's first midsize sedan. It started out with the Opel Vectra platform, but there's not much of the European sedan left. As with the smaller Saturn, the LS features plastic body panels - except for the rear quarter panels. Offered with either a base 2.2-liter in-line four at 137 hp or the upgraded 3.0-liter V-6 at 182 hp.
LW
Saturn's new midsize wagon is a variant of the division's new 2000-model LS sedan. It is also plastic bodied. Though wagons have all but vanished from the American market, Saturn is expecting this new model to have significant appeal. Offered with the same powertrain options as the sedan, either a base 2.2-liter in-line four at 137 hp, or the 3.0-liter V-6 at 182 hp.
SC
Saturn's subcompact coupe unveiled an unusual design twist recently, adding a third "suicide" door on the driver's side to improve ease of entry for rear passengers. The entire Saturn subcompact lineup will be refreshed during the 2000 model-year. Powertrain options are a 1.9-liter in-line four at 100 hp or the 1.9 in-line four at 124 hp.
SL
The original Saturn, the subcompact SL sedan, will be revised during the 2000 model-year. The changes will be evolutionary, not revolutionary, with a more contemporary take on the traditional Saturn look. Powertrain options are a 1.9-liter in-line four at 100 hp or the 1.9 in-line four at 124 hp.
SW
The Saturn SW is one of the few domestic wagons left on the market and competes primarily with more upscale imports. It also gets a face-lift for 2000. Powertrain options are a 1.9-liter in-line four at 100 hp or the 1.9 in-line four at 124 hp.
