Saab 9.3: Sharper Looks Showcase Enhanced
Performance
New Saab 9-3 range debuts for 2008
Model Year

Inspired by the award-winning Aero X
concept car, the new Saab 9-3 range will feature bold styling
and cutting edge technology for greater driving appeal.
With all-new front bodywork,
‘signature’ lighting, new door panels and rear styling features,
the latest generation 9-3 acquires a more focused, assertive
stance, reflecting the introduction of technical advances aimed
at delivering an even more rewarding experience behind the
wheel.

All new 9-3s are immediately
recognizable by the sharper frontal styling, which adopts
fascia, grille and surfacing themes first seen on the Aero X
concept, together with a return of Saab’s classic ‘clamshell’
hood design – first seen in the iconic 1967 Saab 99.
The 9-3’s new ‘face’ is reinforced by
other exterior changes that all combine to give the range a
clearer, more distinctive Saab identity. |
“We are introducing significant developments
across three key areas: design, performance and handling,” says Jan Åke
Jonsson, managing director of Saab Automobile worldwide. “The result is
a major step forward in strengthening the visual and driving appeal of
our core product line-up, which accounts for about two-thirds of Saab’s
global sales.”
The new 9-3 portfolio continues to include
Sport Sedan, SportCombi and Convertible models. Available as the 2.0T
and 2.8 V6 Aero, the range is expected in United States showrooms this
fall.
