Saab, the Swedish manufacturer, tells us more about its newest addition, the new generation Saab 9-5. The program includes a line from the Aero X concept, sophisticated equipment and a full range of turbocharged engines.
Externally, we feel the relationship between the Aero X concept and the new Saab 9-5. But what is surprising is that we find some genes of the classic 900. Indeed, when we look at the amount of windshield slightly to profile, one immediately recognizes its cutting characteristic.
At equipment level, it flips into the world of aeronautics, well known to Saab. For example, the counters are extended by HUD, typical fighter jets made by the Swedish manufacturer. In addition, the cockpit has a dashboard facing the driver, a bit like a cockpit.
But passengers are not left out as entertainment systems including an audio Harman / Kardon, a navigation system with 10GB hard drive dedicated to music complement the rear-seat DVD players, equipped with flat screens .
On the road, engine and chassis are turned towards the effectiveness and dynamism. In addition, the AWD is available for all engines except the 1.6 liter turbo gasoline and 160 horsepower. All transmissions have six reports.
The engine range for it is also a 2.0-liter turbo gasoline 220 hp. The high-end, only compatible with the AWD, is defined by a 2.8 liter V6 turbo, 300 horsepower and 400 Nm of torque.
In the near future, a 2.0-liter BioPower appear fueled with E85 and a two-stage 2.0 turbo, 190 hp 400 Nm of torque.
The Saab 9-5 is expected to ship later in the year 2010. The price for them will be between 37,900 and € 57,350.
