Page 1 of 1 The all-new Saab 9-3 SportCombi takes Saab into the premium, mid-size wagon segment for the first time by combining distinctive design with sporty driving dynamics as an alternative to the qualities of a conventional wagon.
Its strong, compact proportions are a bold reaffirmation of a Saab tradition for designing cars that are sporty in character and versatile in use. The cohesive five-door styling and a muscular, 'hewn from solid' stance give the 9-3 SportCombi a clear, stand-out identity within the Saab 9-3 range.
Making its public debut at the 2005 Geneva Motor Show and due to go on sale from September, the 9-3 SportCombi will appeal to customers who require the versatility of a wagon, including smart load-carrying features and a generously proportioned cargo deck, without compromising their desire for driving satisfaction.
Last year, Europe's growing premium mid-size wagon segment reached a quarter of a million units, with diesel engines accounting for 70 per cent of sales. Building on Saab's reputation for sporty, versatile design and offering strong diesel powertrain options, the 9-3 SportCombi is poised to open up major new sales opportunities for the brand.
The high performance, 250 bhp Aero model is unique to the segment in having a Turbocharged six cylinder engine, which will also be added to the 9-3 Sport Sedan and Convertible ranges. It leads a comprehensive model line-up including six gasoline and two Euro 4 compliant diesel engine options. Page 1 of 1
