Saturn recently partnered with the Orvis Company to introduce a group of journalists to the new Saturn VUE Green Line Hybrid. To really appreciate a vehicle, you have to see how it performs during work and play. Journalists were invited to the program where they had the opportunity to drive the Saturn VUE Green Line Hybrid and also spend time on the water at Orvis's Sandonana Shooting Club location in Millbrook, New York, a premier fly fishing and clay target shooting facility in Millbrook, New York.

The media hopped into Saturn's collection of vehicles which includes the Saturn VUE Green Line Hybrid, Astra, AURA, Outlook and SKY for a scenic ride on the Taconic Parkway that provided a great venue for the writers to experience the driving character of Saturn’s full vehicle portfolio.
