We feel the Saturn Ion is a compelling choice in a strong class of compact cars. It is comfortable, with seats that are large and supportive. Adding to the comfortable seating position is a large steering wheel, a surprisingly important feature. The Ion is smooth and quiet, making it pleasant in daily use. Handling is sharp, making it enjoyable to drive. Stand on the gas and the engine pulls nicely. GM's Quiet Steel is used in the firewall between the engine compartment and passenger area, which absorbs vibration much better than traditional materials. In addition, a new noise-absorbing engine cover is used along with driveline enhancements to reduce engine noise. Overall, the Ion seems refined, and noise and vibration all but eliminated. The front suspension has struts while the rear uses a torsion-beam axle to provide more interior space in the trunk. The Ion has hydraulic rear suspension bushings and front lower control arm bushings for better ride and handling. Front and rear stabilizer bars on all models reduce lean in the corners. The Ion handles well on winding roads, tending toward under steer when driven very hard. The ride is nicely damped on rough roads. Come in and experience it for yourself. Take a test drive today.
