What the Saturn LW sticker says about fuel
Fuel economy is a legally required block on every Monroney label — city, highway and combined figures plus the estimated annual fuel bill. These are the EPA numbers on file for the LW, latest tested year 2005:
The label also prints an estimated $2,950 a year in fuel at 15,000 miles, and 396 g/mi of CO₂. EPA files the LW under Midsize Station Wagons, which is the class it gets compared against on the sticker.
How the LW's sticker figure changed
Combined MPG printed on the label, model year by model year — 2000 to 2005. Worth checking before you compare a LW sticker from one year with another:
The figure has stayed broadly flat across the span. EPA revised its testing method in 2008, which shifts figures printed before and after that year.

Where to find the VIN on a Saturn LW
- WindshieldLower-left corner, driver's side, readable from outside without opening anything.
- Door jambOn the driver's door frame of every LW, next to the tyre-pressure and build-date plate.
- DocumentsRegistration, title and insurance card — on a Saturn LW all three must show the same number.
All four must match. A Saturn LW whose windshield plate disagrees with the door jamb has either had a panel replaced or a tampered identity — check the paperwork before any money changes hands.
