Exterior - What the Auto Press Says

Though the 2010 Saturn Outlook gets generally positive reviews for its exterior styling, others in the class offer a more distinctive look.  

  • "Where Outlook XE models have a single exhaust outlet, the XR has twins with slick, squared-off exhaust tips. For 2009, those exhaust tips are downturned - eliminating the need for cutouts in the rear bumper." -- Cars.com
  • "Finally, a new Touring Package for the XR boosts the 18-inch alloy wheels to 20-inchers and adds rear bumper cut-outs for the dual exhaust pipes. The dual exhaust pipes in the standard XR have been redesigned to turn down, to remove the need for cut-outs." -- Car Gurus
  • "We got favorable looks everywhere and lots of damning with faint praise." -- Washington Post
  • "While its shape is SUV boxy, it defies the stereotype because of its low-riding body. It looks more like a sports ute than a wagon on steroids -- the other common version of large crossovers." -- Detroit News
