I read the article about the new SC and I wonder what they mean by “Eco shift”. Can anyone tell me what’s about ?
Red J said on May 31, 2011
Just guessing:
- A special low consumption program for the automatic transmission, like on the 9-4x
or
- A shift indicator for the manual transmission as in the 9-3 Griffin.

would be nice to have more information about the “Eco Shift”, since i’m about to order my SC !!
I will send a mail to Swade over at saab inside

Great stuff, but I wish they would get rid of the artificial page divider. There is a great picture of the Phoenix in there covering two pages, but because someone felt it necessary to create an illusion of a magazine, the two halves don’t quite line up.

Thanks but actually it’s Marc at saab Club.nl who announced it first

As Red “guessed” the Eco Shift is indeed the same type of indicator as in the Griffin 9-3 telling the driver when to shift for optimal fuel efficiency
Thanks Linda at Saab Direkt!

The two-pager in there highlighting the Saab 9-5′s best features – I have never seen these wheels before. Are they 20″? They look huge and they certainly make the 9-5 look great. My goodness I love that car.
Red J said on May 31, 2011
Yes those are 20″ rims, and Saab calls them TurboStar.
2-don said on June 1, 2011
That’s why it looks so nice! GOOD JOB SAAB!
2-don said on June 1, 2011
Oh, I meant the turbine wheels. They look bigger in the magazine than the 19″ standard Aero wheels. Is that correct?
