This engine is reported to be exclusive to Saturn for one year, then made available to other GM-owned marques beyond 2001. This is the engine of choice, although Saturn's broad spectrum of price ranges means it could be beyond the budget of some buyers. The L-Series uses an updated evolution of that technique, with some added stiffness for a stouter feel on the road. The front suspension is mounted to a stiff, hydroformed steel subframe, which provides a very solid attachment for the suspension and steering components. It rides smoothly, yet taut, and is surprisingly agile on backcountry roads.
ABS is optional.
