t Saturn changes aimed at customer sa (Continued from page 1) The company believes in conâ€" stant improvement as opposed to radical change, yet each model year brings new features, both subtle and obvious. All have one thing in commonâ€" â€" to make Saturn more desirable to the customer. _ Engine noise and vibration ~ have been reduced through an improved dashmat with fewer frontâ€"ofâ€"dash passâ€"throughs, and refinements to the torque axis mount and transmission torque + Strut. Transmissions have been improved: The SOHC first gear ratios in both manual and automatâ€" ic transmissions are now common with DOHC versions. This â€" improves the SOHC‘s launch feel and performance. The final drive has been altered to reduce gear noise. Automatic transmissions, which feature a dual mode allowing the driver to select between "performance" or "normal", have been recalibrated for better response. A new "high power density" starter is smaller and lighter, proâ€" viding faster cranking speeds. Engine spark timing is improved by sensing crankshaft speeds six times per powertrain revolution, which results in improved low RPM responsiveness. A new moulded black valve cover for the DOHC engine is made of composite material, reducing noise, providing corroâ€" sion resistance, and improving underhood appearance. Changes to the optional antiâ€" lock brakes (ABS) have reduced noise entering the passenger comâ€" partment, and improved brake pedal feel. The steering gear ratio of the Saturn Coupes has now been applied to SW2 and SL2 models for faster response. SATURN SEDANS The fourâ€"door, fiveâ€"passenger sedans represent the automaker‘s overall character â€" outstanding value with market segmentâ€"leadâ€" ing levels of quality and customer satisfaction. Saturn sedans provide funâ€"toâ€"drive personality with comâ€" fort levels similar to larger cars. The Saturn SL and SL1 sedans feature a 1.9L fourâ€"cylinder engine with throttleâ€"body fuel injection and singleâ€"overhead camshaft. Transmission is a 5â€"speed manâ€" ual, while an electronicallyâ€"conâ€" trolled 4â€"speed automatic is availâ€" able on the SL1.

Saturn SL2 is a touring sedan with a multiâ€"port, fuel injected 124 hp DOHC engine mated to a closeâ€" ratio 5â€"speed manual transmission or optional fourâ€"speed automatic. Bodyâ€"color fascias, P195/60R series tires on 15â€"inch steel wheels or optional allow wheels add to the SL2‘s roadability. STATION WAGONS Often referred to as "sedans with a backpack," the SW1 and SW2 wagons have proven to be popular models for those buyers who desire maximum: Saturn roominess and versatility, yet insist on expressive style, performance and comfort. Saturn wagons are v1rtually identical to the sedans in spaceâ€" frame construction, suspension, power modules, and a high level of standard features. In fact, all sedan options except for the sunroof and rear decklid spoiler are available on the wagon. 1 » 1 o 404 The exterior roof and tailgate of the wagon are formed of a sheet moulded compound (SMC) materiâ€" al, leaving the hood as the only exterior panel made from steel. Comparing an identicallyâ€" equipped SW1 and SL2, the base curb weight of the wagon is only 12 kg (42 1b.) more than the sedan. The topâ€"hinged tailgate has a standard wiper/washer system. When opened, the gate allows access to 0.8 cu. metres (28.8 cu. ft.) of volume with the split rear seats up or a maximum 15.76 cu. metres (56.3 cu. ft.) with both seatâ€" backs lowered. SATURN COUPES Built on a slightly shorter wheelbase with their own distincâ€" tive styling, the funâ€"toâ€"drive Saturn SC1 and SC2 coupes repreâ€" sent the Saturn sports department. The SC1 is an affordable, ecoâ€" nomical sports coupe with a 1.9L SOHC engine producing 85 hp @ 5000 rpm and an impressive torque rating of 107 lb.â€"ft. @ 2400 rpm. Its standard 5â€"speed manual and optional 4â€"speed automatic transâ€" missions have wideâ€"ratio gearing. SC1 styling includes exposed headlamps, with interior trimmed in cloth and vinyl. The SC2 is aimed at perforâ€" mance driving, its DOHC engine producing 124 hp @ 5600 rpm and a broad torque band, ranging from 118 lb.â€"ft. @ 2400 rpm to 122 lb.â€"ft. @ 4800 rpm. Specific manual and automatic transmissions with closeâ€"ratio gearing complement the engine performance. The SC2 gets a unique styling treatment with hidden headlamps.
