A document published in a big feature by Auto Motor & Sport (Sweden) reveals some interesting plans laid out for the new SAAB company. Now under fellow Swedish automaker Koenigsegg's care, SAAB's latest 9-5 sedan was recently shown. But in order to get back into quirky people's hearts it needs more than just the 9-5. It needs new product and it needs it fast.
The said document was compiled by AMS. However, it is not clear at this stage how much of it is fact and how much is wishful thinking. Nevertheless the AMS crew did spend some time in Trollhattan, SAAB's automotive headquarters, in order to prepare for the feature.
Here are the basics covered:
2010 will see the new 9-5 sedan being launched after breaking cover at the 2009 Frankfurt Motor Show. The new 9-4 compact SUV will follow suit, taking on Audi's Q5, BMW's X3, Mercedes-Benz's GLK and Volvo's XC60. Lastly a facelift for the 9-3 is on the cards and it will focus more on the interior than the outside.
