==Current Generation: (2007–present)==
The Outlook can seat eight in a three-row setting. The front row consists of two [[bucket seat]]s, and the second row is available as either a 60/40 split-folding three-passenger [[bench seat]] or two individual "captain chairs." The third row is a 60/40 split-folding three-passenger bench seat.

In the press release accompanying the Outlook's launch, GM emphasized the "industry first" ''SmartSlide'' second row. In case of both bench seat or captain chairs, the seat cushion flips forward while the seat is being slid forward, which allows for "compression" of the space used by the seat in the foremost position. If the third seat is folded, this allows for expansion of the cargo area. The system also allows for fore-aft adjustment of the middle seat to change the spacing between the second and third-row seats for more legroom.

The Outlook, along with the other Lambda-based vehicles, is built in the [[Delta Township Assembly]] plant near [[Lansing, Michigan]]. The Saturn brand is currently represented only in the [[United States|USA]], [[Canada]], and [[Puerto Rico]].

The first preproduction Outlook rolled off the assembly line at the Delta Township plant on May 24, 2006.

In December 2006, all sales of the first batch of the Outlook (and the GMC Acadia) were temporarily stopped due to the engine mounts' not having holes drilled to release accumulated water, as well as an issue with potentially faulty rivets in the load floor just forward of the rear hatch. The assembly process was quickly adjusted, and dealerships were told to fix the problems themselves before offering the Outlook for sale again. Sales resumed within days of the notice.
