The 2007 Saturn Ion for buyers
CarmaCars rents cars and does not sell the 2007 Saturn Ion; this page helps you judge it before you buy one elsewhere. The 2007 Saturn Ion for buyers: what the numbers say, what to check, how to try it.
What to check on the Ion
NHTSA lists 5 recall campaigns for this model; ask the seller for proof each one was fixed. Owners filed 876 complaints with NHTSA, most often about steering, electrical system and fuel/propulsion system; have those parts checked. Have a mechanic inspect a used one before you buy it. Ask the seller for the service records of this exact car.
What the specs mean
It is powered by the 2.2L 4-cylinder, with front-wheel drive. It runs on regular gas. Front-wheel drive is the usual layout for cars this size, predictable in the rain and the snow.
Expect about 27 litres for every 300 km, going by its 9.0 L/100 km combined rating. A 300 km weekend costs about $41.85 in energy at our price setting. At US fuel prices, the EPA estimates US$2,600 a year for 15,000 miles.
Best uses
It suits people curious about the model who want to drive it before they buy. It suits commuters, couples and business trips.
Room inside
As a compact car, it has a closed trunk that keeps luggage out of sight. The trunk holds 425 litres by the EPA's count: a family's bags for a long weekend.
Try before you buy
Rent first, buy later: a week with the Ion answers the big questions. A test week in the Ion tells you more than any review. Rent the Ion first, and buy only if it fits your life.
Narrowing it down
Set a budget that includes tax, licensing, insurance and the first set of tires. Within the 2007 lineup, trims share powertrains or differ in equipment; the trim pages show which. Write down the VIN of any car you consider; it unlocks the recall and service history.
Running costs
The EPA estimates US$2,600 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices. At our price setting, 100 km costs about $13.95 in fuel. Get an insurance quote for this exact model before you buy; rates differ a lot between models.
Questions first?
Rent it for a week, then decide: send a request with your dates.
