12. Ford Escape has a hybrid SUV, too.
Here is a full review on Edmonds.

I also worry about Saturn being around as a brand in a few years, GM seems interested in dumping it.

The current Ford Escape Hybrid remains the most fuel-efficient SUV on the market. A two-wheel-drive Escape Hybrid should be able to deliver close to 30 mpg in real-world city and highway driving. Its powertrain consists of a 2.3-liter four-cylinder gasoline engine, a pair of electric motors and an electronically controlled continuously variable transmission (CVT) that basically works like a regular automatic transmission.
