As part of its new, more aggressive restructuring plan General Motors is speeding up the phase out of Saturn. Instead of shutting down in 2012 as previously stated, they will now end production after this year. Automotive News reports:

General Motors plans to build the last Saturn vehicles this year, two years earlier than first envisioned, as it speeds up efforts to shed dealerships and divisions, CEO Fritz Henderson said today.

There are several parties interested in buying Saturn, including a private equity firm that is working with a group of Saturn dealerships.
