A Three-Row Triple From GM: 2007 Saturn Outlook, 2007 GMC Acadia, 2008 Buick Enclave
General Motors is rolling out three new crossover SUVs that share an all-new, purpose-built platform. GM has called this platform Lambda for internal purposes. The Saturn Outlook and GMC Acadia are on sale now and the Buick Enclave arrives in summer 2007 as a 2008MY vehicle. These crossover SUVs are taking on not only traditional and crossover mid-size SUVs but also full-size SUVs and minivans due to their large size and dimensions (they are nearly as large as the Chevrolet Tahoe). They do not have the towing capability of truck-based SUVs, but do have the other attributes for which buyers go to SUVs, or minivans. They have high seating positions, available AWD, and interiors big enough to hold seven passengers or lots of stuff.
Following the roll-out of the Lambda crossover SUVs, General Motors will kill their conventional minivans (similar to Ford's strategy of killing the Monterey and Freestar minivans). The Pontiac Montana SV6 is already history and its demise will be followed by the Chevrolet Uplander, Saturn Relay and Buick Terraza. Oh, yeah, Chevrolet will get a Lambda Crossover SUV in the next year or so as well.
AutoPacific and VehicleVoice analysts have been included in the reviews of these critically important General Motors vehicles.
General Motors describes their current state as an interior renaissance, and these products are examples of smart interior thinking. They include a level of interior detail not before seen from the General. As these products were developed with a clean slate, new platform, new interiors, new powertrain, GM took the opportunity to make sure they will be easy to live with.
The second- and third-row folding operations are simple and easy to use and the overall package is terrific. One could buy any one of these vehicles and spend the life of the vehicle discovering all the little things that will add up to a product that enhances and eases daily life. It's taken GM a very long time to get to such a solid package design, but they have finally succeeded.
A Useful, Comfortable Third Row
The Acadia, Outlook, and Enclave offer a third row and cargo area that functions well, an area GM has not been particularly successful with in the past. Also, kudos to GM for sharing where it is smart to share and differentiating where it matters. All three use the same second- and third-row setup and tricks, but the forward areas are different. Each has a distinct interior design well matched to the specific brand while all offer the same smart solutions.
Captain's chairs are standard in the second row (bench optional on Acadia and Outlook), comfortable seats are available for at least seven. And we mean comfortable. Adults can sit in the third row without having their knees to their noses, and the seats even have side bolsters. These bolsters deflate when the third-row seat is folded, for a flat profile. One could easily take seven adults to dinner in these products, as infrequently as that actually happens. The only drawback to the system is that the seats aren't as thick and comfortable as, say, a GMC Yukon Denali. Side bolsters in the front seats could be more supportive as well.
With Smart Slide, third-row passengers are not held captive by the second-row seats. The second row is folded and raised with one hand, and that handle can be reached and operated easily by both third-row passengers and someone standing outside the vehicle. Push the lever forward, and the second-row seatback slides forward and forces the seat bottom to fold up, all with minimal effort. Floor mats in the second row roll forward with the action, so they don't jam up the works or get in the way. The handle used to slide the seats is the same that second-row passengers use to recline their seats, which also slide fore and aft.
The third row folds just as easily as the second row, though a power-fold option is not available. There is a mechanical lever, simply pull and drop. A nice touch making it easier to get the seats back up is the canvas strap to help raise the seats; the strap even has a bit of Velcro on the back to keep in in place. Without it, it can be a stretch to reach the pull and raise the seats. Behind the third row, there is room for luggage or a trip to the grocery store; a benefit of the large overall length and wheelbase. The underfloor covered storage space in the cargo area has hinges that keep it up. The overall cargo area is carpeted, but the covered storage area is plastic for wet or messy items. The headrests are self-storing.
Second and third rows fold fully flat, with less of an upward angle than the competition. The third row is a sixty/forty split, as is the bench second row. The result is the ability to configure the interior for a variety of people- or cargo-hauling needs. Seat belts are as out of the way as possible when not needed, and at the ready when they are, including a pocket tether for the third-row belt.
Life Happens Inside Your Car
GM has found that particularly true for families, usually buyers of mid-size SUVs and minivans. GM gave their new crossovers many thoughtful touches that improve the quality of life inside the car. A panoramic dual sunroof option gets you a front power sunroof and a second fixed-glass roof large enough to light for all three rows. The power shades covering them are controlled by the driver, and ordering the sunroof doesn't mean you have to go without the optional rear-seat DVD entertainment package. There are individual roof-mounted lights for all three rows, plus the cargo area, as well as a small LED near the rearview mirror that gives off a subtle light for night driving. The dead pedal in the driver's footwell has a small space below that is just perfect for a woman's high-heel shoe, improving driving comfort and seating position. A power liftgate is optional, but without power, it closes easily with one pull.
The steering wheel gets standard tilt/telescoping (though the action could be smoother and adjust to a larger degree), the center armrest slides forward and has storage underneath, and the a cell phone pocket in the center console is angled upward to stop your phone from flying out at every sharp stop. There are power outlets inside and at the back of the front center console, with a cord cutout in the extra deep front center console.
There are 24 personal storage spaces and 12 cupholders. Just one of those storage areas is in the center of the top of the dash; while cubbies have been popping there for several years, this one is deeper, lined, and the cover opens and closes with a nicely damped action.
Comfort and convenience options are up-to-date. Front-drive is standard, AWD optional. OnStar equipment is standard, as is one year of turn-by-turn navigation, though DVD navigation is available. HID headlights are optional, as are rear parking sensors and remote start. For these vehicles, dual-zone climate control means independent controls for front and second-row passengers; tri-zone adds front passenger climate controls. Air conditioning for the third row is standard. Heated seats are available as well as leather seating. Some options serve as differentiators, as the Enclave launches with optional adaptive headlights and rear-view camera, but not the Saturn or GMC.
Competitive Interior Package
It is a joy to report that GM has finally created a competitive interior for its utilities. Seats fold easily, though not into the floor like a minivan, and there are many small touches that families will find enhance their use of the vehicle.

Jeep Expands Alternative Fuel Offerings
All DCX 4.7L V6s Go Flex-Fuel for 2007
For the 2007 model year, the 4.7L V8 offered in the Jeep Grand Cherokee and Commander gets flex-fuel treatment, making these SUVs able to run on gasoline or E85. The engine is also used in the Durango and Ram, though Dodge had already offered flex-fuel-capable powertrains. While GM and Ford offer several V8 engines in either the flex-ready or the gasoline-only variations, DaimlerChrysler will simply equip all 4.7L V8s with the appropriate modifications for the capability.
Jeep Adds Diesel Grand Cherokee for 2007
Perhaps making a bigger splash is the announcement that the Grand Cherokee gets a diesel for the States with the 2007 model year. The Grand Cherokee had already been available with in international markets with the diesel, though this will be the first for the U.S. version. The Commander is offered in Europe with the same diesel engine, so if the Grand Cherokee diesel sells well, a Commander diesel for the States seems only a matter of time.
The diesel is a 3.0L DOHC 24v V6 common-rail injection turbo-diesel built by Mercedes-Benz, delivering 215HP for this market. It will be available in Laredo, Limited, and Overland trim levels. Look for a five-speed automatic transmission, as the diesel gets in Europe and other Grand Cherokees are equipped with.
Jeep expects the CRD to get 19 mpg city and 23 mpg highway. By comparison, the V6-equipped Grand Cherokee's EPA ratings are for 17/22 mpg, the 4.7L V8 for 15/20 mpg, and the 5.7L HEMI V8 for 15/20 mpg. The diesel's 215HP betters the V6's 210HP but not the 4.7L's 235HP, though its increased torque should provide for better acceleration and it is rated for more towing. Though VehicleVoice and AutoPacific correspondents haven't driven the diesel yet, it should give a more substantial feeling to off-the-line acceleration than either the 4.7L V8 or the V6 and satisfy the needs of most drivers, especially those needing to tow anywhere near the diesel's 7400-pound capacity.
Will Going Diesel Save Money?
Diesel engines can offer better fuel economy than gasoline engines, and Jeep claiming a 30 percent improvement in the Grand Cherokee. But in the current environment, some regions have seen diesel prices running higher than or about the same as premium unleaded gasoline, which the standard gasoline-fed Jeep engines don't even need. Regular 87 octane is the requirement for the V6 and 4.7L V8, though 89 octane is recommended for the 5.7 V8. Statistics from the Energy Information Administration put the national average for regular unleaded at $2.86 per gallon, and diesel at $2.88 (as of May 29, 2006).
Diesel engines generally get better fuel economy, but the cost savings may be offset by higher cost of the fuel. Diesel engines can be a solid choice, but it is not a slam dunk that going diesel will ease your pain at the pump.
First Modern Diesel Jeep Was Liberty
U.S. Jeep dealers began offering a diesel-powered Liberty for the 2005 model year and have sold 11,000 CRD Libertys through the end of May 2006. Of course, in all of 2005, Jeep sold more than 166,000 of the mid-size SUV. While the response to diesel has been solid and has satisfied DaimlerChrysler's expectations, it remains a small percentage of the mix.

Toyota Prius - It’s the Shape, Stupid!
I’m a fan of hybrids. The idea of using a cleaner electric motor to assist the most inefficient stage of a combustion engine’s range makes great sense. The fact that Toyota is pursuing the technology with such vigor lends give it even more credibility to me. After all, Toyota does not have a history of making huge strategic errors.
The part that still bugs me is the economics. We all know that fuel savings alone will not justify the purchase of a hybrid vehicle. Even with tax credits, we’ve seen estimates of six years to recoup the cost of the hybrid powertrain. Yet one model, the Toyota Prius, continues to be a hot seller in the marketplace. Even used Prius’ (Priui?) are commanding high resale prices. Residual values continue to remain high on a vehicle that cannot prove it creates the fuel savings worth the premium charged by Toyota (and it’s dealer network, no doubt).
Why are Prius values, both new and used, so far ahead of other hybrids, including, Ford’s Escape, Honda’s Civic and Even Toyota’s Highlander? In a word, popularity and its at-a-glance identifiability. The Prius is the only hybrid that is offered in only one bodystyle. Its styling is head-turning. When a buyer drives down the street in a Prius, everyone knows it’s a hybrid. The statement is clearly made, “I can afford a hybrid Prius just like a celebrity.” No other hybrid vehicle, including the Toyota Highlander and Lexus RX 400h, offers this immediate cachet.
The real test for hybrid engines will come when Toyota offers it on the full lineup. Only then will be see if the powertrain option can stand on it’s own.

VehicleVoice Fuel Price Impact Survey - April 2006
The Fuel Price Impact Survey conducted monthly by AutoPacific's VehicleVoice indicates that the median fuel price paid by U.S. motorists increased from a September 2005 peak of $2.90 per gallon to a new peak of $2.94 a gallon in April 2006. This was up from $2.42 in March. April's spike is the largest month-over-month spike since September 2005.
SUV Loyalty Deteriorates - Small Cars Set to Boom?
In September respondents reacted to the price shock with about 27% of SUV owners saying they would consider buying another type vehicle when they replaced their SUV. As fuel prices moderated in the months following September, loyalty to SUVs rebounded. By March, only 13% would consider shifting away from SUVs. But, given the new April peak, about 25% of SUV owners say they may buy something different next time. Similarly, interest in Small Cars, up 41% in September, and up only 17% in February, was up 40% in April. Clearly, there is a direct relationship between fuel prices and the type of vehicle a person wants to drive.
About 25% Have Not Changed Driving Habits
As fuel prices increase changes in driving habits would be expected. About 25% of the respondents indicate that they have made no changes in their driving habits. About 58% say they are combining trips and 37% are driving slower. An almost free way to increase fuel economy is to increase pressure in the tires, but only 17% are doing this (up from 11% in September).
More Stringent CAFÉ Unnecessary
The Bush Administration and Congress appear poised to propose increased CAFÉ (Corporate Average Fuel Economy Standards) over the next few months. Based on the results of this VehicleVoice research, it appears that, over time, market forces would work admirably to shift American drivers to a more fuel-efficient vehicle fleet. If fuel prices remain high enough long enough, drivers will shift to a more fuel efficient car or truck on their own without undue and disruptive government intervention. Since these "adjustments" in CAFÉ could not be implemented for years, the immediate outcome would primarily be political and not economic.

Dodge Durango to Getty Villa on Day Without an Immigrant
You might have known that months ago we had picked the "Day Without an Immigrant" - May 1 - to visit the Getty Villa in Malibu. The visit required a trek from central Orange County through Los Angeles to get to the Pacific Coast Highway in Santa Monica and then up to the Villa. Those familiar with getting from here to there can imagine the stairstep of freeways - 57-91-605-105-405-10-PCH.
We gave ourselves two hours for the trip, piled in a 2006 Dodge Durango and set out to brave a day that promised two massive demonstrations in Los Angeles and others in surrounding cities. The Durango was perfect for the trip quickly carrying four from The OC to Malibu. The HEMI gives the power to point and shoot the big SUV into openings in the traffic, but we didn't need it. There was no traffic... didn't have to slow down once. Within 45 minutes we have made a trip that usually would be well over an hour. No traffic. Folks were avoiding the freeway and all eyes were on the demonstrations. Whew. The nice folks at the Getty were kind enough to let us in more than an hour early.
Apparently, the 11 o'clock demonstrations in downtown drew 250,000 people and the 4PM demonstrations along the Wilshire corridor drew 400,000 marchers. This was enough to nicely empty the freeways away from the march routes. As we drove along, we wondered how our friends at r/comnetworks were doing. They were invited to video the earlier march from the venue of a Los Angeles Fire Department hook and ladder staged to respond to the scene.
Durango Provides Fast Comfortable Transit
The new Durango was just what was needed for this outing. Big, comfortable and loaded with all the gadgets passengers wanted to play with. The Sirius Satellite radio was popular once we found it hidden behind the "Mode" button on the radio. The NAV system provided great amusement especially when trying to find restaurants from its Points of Interest button. Turns out you can't access that feature while in motion. While the Durango had a killer rear seat DVD with wireless headphones, we had forgotten our DVD of Bambi II.
There are three notable downsides to the Durango that anyone considering one should be aware of. First, getting in and out is a bit of a chore. This Durango had a side step (thanks Chrysler PR) that is needed on many SUVs, but does not really help much with the Durango. What this side step does is force you to step up high and then duck down very low to get under the A-Pillar and into the vehicle. Oof, ugh, grunt... not ideal. Second, give me backup sensors and a backup camera. The Durango feels like you are backing up by feel. No traumas thankfully, but a backup camera would have been a great feature. Third, the interior design is nice but the execution suffers from massive cost reductions. Material choices show evidence of the cost cutters' pencils. As auto industry planners often say, "We were just a hundred dollars away from a really good vehicle." That is true with Durango.
As with Chrysler Corporation vehicles with the HEMI - powertrain is where the Durango excels. Even dragging tons of metal around, the HEMI is responsive and fun to put pedal to the metal. The only downside is that gasoline is now well over $3 per gallon and it is very expensive to feed the HEMI.
Getty's Massive "Re-Imagination" Somehow Disappoints
OK, VehicleVoice is an auto site, but the Getty Villa deserves some words. Closed in 1997, Getty's Malibu museum set in a hillside canyon overlooking the Pacific, began a $275 million renovation. Only months after its re-opening a visitor must be amazed about the apparent lack of any budget constraints in modernizing, freshening and reinterpreting the Villa. Where you used to approach the museum from the Pacific side and enter through the imposing Peristyle, now you park in a foreboding parking structure, rise to the third floor and walk along a canyon wall designed to give the visitor the impression they are in a archeological dig. This approach forces you to enter through a side door which is apparently the way a visitor would have entered the Villa del Papiri (upon which the Getty Villa is based) two thousand years ago.
To us the massive update of the Getty Villa is the result of hiring an ambitious architectural firm - Machado and Silvetti Associates from Boston - giving them unlimited resources and allowing them to define the "concept". While people who have never visited the Villa in the past may be rightly impressed, the updates leave seasoned visitors empty.

Spot Reducing
For reasons that I don’t quite understand, I hate it when people troll parking lots at ridiculously low speeds looking for a perfect parking spot. I’m often stuck behind idiots like this wondering if they really feel less tired after shaving twenty feet of their commute. To me this makes about as much sense as car radios that come with wireless remotes.
When someone stops while I am loading my car and asks, “Are you leaving?” I’m wondering how a complete stranger can ask me to provide information about my intended travel plans for their convenience.
I experienced this in its highest form one afternoon a few weeks ago. As I was loading my car in a parking lot near my office a car pulled up, idled and waited for me. I felt tempted to check my oil, or better yet, rotate my tires, but resisted. The lot is never full, so it seemed like the usual laziness.
Then it occurred to me, I was in a health club parking lot! This er… person, was asking me to help expedite her plans to reduce the exercise she was going to get on her way to go get exercise! She pays money to lift chrome and run on a belt-sander that takes her nowhere, but can’t walk a few extra feet to the door for free!
Please leave me out of your parking dilemmas. If you feel compelled to park in the space that my vehicle is currently occupying, fine. Just please leave me out of your planning.

Land Rover LR3 for First Snow of the Season: To SUV or Not To SUV
After an unusually warm fall, in southeastern Michigan we are experiencing temperatures more typical of January and February than November or December, complete with early snowfall well ahead of the average. By December 11, we had seen more snow than our average for the entire month of December and more snow than we've seen in December since 1974, according to a local newscast. Four to eight inches of the month's ten-plus inches dropped on the evening of December 8, when snow started coming down heavy about 6 p.m. By about 9:30 p.m., it sure seemed as though three-quarters of the total had fallen. I was attending a holiday party and needed to drive about fifteen miles before I could be snug at home, I found myself grateful to be driving a Land Rover LR3. But: Grateful enough to opt for an SUV for our household fleet?
LR3, at Least, Not Challenged by Early Winter Snowfall
An SUV equipped with a good AWD system and electronic aids provides confidence when driving through the snow and ice and assures you that it will easily drive through snow in depths just plain too deep for a snow-shoed Audi TT coupe or Mazda Miata to successfully navigate. The LR3 felt overqualified for this occasion, in fact, as it had capabilities that I did not need. Its AWD system offers a specific setting for slippery surfaces (including snow, gravel, and sand), but the surefooted LR3 did not need to switch out of its most basic AWD mode. The LR3 could take on far worse driving weather, and Thursday's drive was typical Michigan snow weather: poor visibility and snow falling faster than it can be cleared off the road, leaving the reduced traffic flow to clear the way.
After drives like last Thursday's, I find myself tempted by the go-anywhere, all-weather power of an AWD-equipped SUV and understanding again why many people choose the perceived confidence of large, AWD vehicles. Many front- and rear-wheel-drive cars, especially when equipped with today's advanced levels of electronic assistance, perform admirably and safely in bad weather, but they require more input and concentration to handle in those conditions, both things today's drivers seem to avoid. It is far easier to plow forward with a heavy AWD-equipped SUV. An SUV even feels safer even though it may not be. An SUV lets you know that all four corners are solidly planted and you can drive with minimum fuss. With a front- or a rear-drive car (or two-wheel-drive SUV), the driver is more likely to feel wheels slip and need to adjust steering, braking, or acceleration input to maintain course. A minivan in the snow can gain as much traction, but generally feels more unwieldy. With a vehicle like the Land Rover LR3, one can be secure in the knowledge that if the snow drift in the left lane piles up, the LR3 can still move forward while others may have difficulty with either traction or ground clearance. One also knows that should an evasive maneuver be needed, assuming a safe speed, it can be done as safely and confidently as possible.
The Land Rover was an excellent vehicle for what could have been an unsettling drive and reinforced my understanding of the reason many drivers keep SUVs around: An SUV can provide the feeling that we have the ability to go anywhere, anytime, weather be damned. Never mind how often I drive in the snow, or how deep that snow is. That is not important. What is important is that I can.
No A Change of Heart?
The experience, however, is not likely to alter the makeup of our garage any time soon. Despite having heard the call of the SUV and again reveling in the go-anywhere feeling recently, I am also reminded that the last time I drove through deep snow and had the Snow Hero feeling was during the winter of 2001-2002. In the aftermath of a fourteen-inch snowstorm, I returned an Audi A6 Avant with Quattro and swapped it out for a Saturn S-Series coupe with traction control. While the A6 drove through the ten to fourteen inches of piled-up snow at the end of my street with ease, it took a significant amount of work to get the Saturn back up the street when I returned. Both vehicles succeeded in getting through the snow, but only one with grace.
We've had snow and snowstorms since then, but I have either not needed to drive in them or have safely driven our household's snow-shoed Mazda Miata or Audi TT quattro coupe. While the Snow Hero feeling of AWD can be liberating, knowing I can handle a snowstorm in a Miata has its benefits, too. In general, Michigan's road-clearing ability is reasonably good and much of the snow seems to fall before or after actual drive times. As I can count on one hand the number of times I have needed to drive through several inches of snow during the past five years, the odds are on my side.
I allow myself the luxury of not maintaining a fleet with extreme capability. Despite my appreciation for the capability of the LR3 last week and the A6 Avant a few years back, I'll stick with the TT and the Miata for now. We'll need more than bad weather to bump us up to an SUV at home. After all, the best spot to be in a snowstorm is home, safe and warm and enjoying time with my husband and our cat!
P.S. For Those I-Am-Superman AWD Drivers
With the benefits of a large, AWD SUV on snow-covered roads, there always goes the caveat against the invisible Superman cape that lands so many SUVs in the ditch during snowstorms. AWD and SUVs can be safer and provide a more surefooted drive in snow than front-wheel or rear-wheel drive exclusively. However, as with any tools that help us overcome conditions, common sense must still be applied. Being behind the wheel of SUV is not an excuse to drive at an unsafe speed, and the better drivers understand this. When something goes wrong in wet and icy weather, any driver's ability to control the vehicle's reaction to the change is compromised by the conditions. Driving too fast can more quickly change a near miss to a hit when traction is poor, whether ice causes an unexpected slide, one needs to react to an unexpected move from another driver, or Santa Claus lands on the freeway and causes the need to stop and stop quick.

I Now Understand Commuting in an SUV
Up until two weeks ago I made my daily commute in a very economical Honda CR-X 2-door hatchback. 4-cylinder engine, less than 100HP, no wasted seats since it was just for getting to work, 30+ miles per gallon and no maintenance whatsoever. It makes perfect sense on paper. The CR-X is exactly what you want for commuting, right? Well, if everyone else drove a small car it would be just fine. But it's not much fun on California freeways with large SUVs and cellphone conversations providing a nice combination. Not to mention the big trucks. An 18-wheeler beside a CR-X provides a great opportunity for the study of lug nuts.
It turns out, safety is more important than gas mileage to me. Small cars built today have a much higher level of safety equipment than was available more than a decade ago for my Honda - and I would have no problem driving a small or mid-size car in California traffic as long as the safety features were there.
So the Honda left my family fleet when we bought a used Minivan. The Honda really needed replacing and our other vehicle, a Jeep Cherokee was quickly becoming too small for growing kids. I now drive the Cherokee on a regular basis, which includes commuting.
I never understood commuting in an SUV until I starting doing it myself, but now I completely understand this phenomenon of driving an impractical vehicle just for commuting. It comes back to the SUV intangibles we've known in the auto business for years now - sitting up high, visibility both for me as driver and for others seeing me, basically several safety issues. And most Americans are impractical about a lot of things. This Cherokee was already in our household and just a hand-me-down from my wife. If I was buying a new vehicle today I would not need a 4-door SUV.
Sure I will miss the gas mileage and the low maintenance costs that were benefits of driving a CR-X, but I am very happy with the tradeoff at the moment. If my commute was 35 miles one way instead of 11, it would be a different story also. But for now it works. I fold down the rear seats since I am usually by myself, and it makes for a nice permanent inside storage space for my mountain bike also. Works better than being worried about theft of a bike on a rack.
So as long as my commute doesn't get any longer I'm happy with commuting in a vehicle that doesn't make much sense for just commuting. But it does make sense that we now have two vehicles that the whole family can fit in - it comes down to perceived safety and flexibility.
