SAABSUNITED

A problem for the consumer is that the origin of a product is not always clear. For instance, some foreign brands assembled in the U.S. are said to have more domestic content than some products wearing domestic […]

Bernard, All that may be, but what kind of pricing do you expect from NEVS for their EV? The base Tesla starts at over $71k (with cloth seats etc. – options and added performance can push that to the $100k […]

I read that the Fiat will be priced at $35k and that the president of Fiat has stated that they will lose $10k on each one. I assume NEVS will want to sell their EV for a profit and that it will be a more premium […]

Thanks Jason

Jason, do you have any opinion as to the status of the parts risk as far as the NG 9-5 is concerned? Many potential owners would want to be comfortable that new parts will be available for at least 10 years. I […]

Also, BMW profit margins are reported to be relatively high. Unless they can price SAABs at a comparable profit margin, it is counter productive financially to dilute their financial ratios.

Maybe if they have somewhere near the same volume as Honda/Acura and they don’t build the cars in Sweden. More likely the cars will be priced higher.

If NEVS can build a 9-3 that people want and can make money selling it for $30k they will have revolutionized automobile manufacturing/distribution.

Also, if NEVS’ primary product is to be a 9-3 premium EV, […]

NEVS needs to convince enough buyers that there is value associated with owning a good driving car produced in smaller quantities, i.e. people who feel that owning a less common car that they like is something in […]

I have noted this before, but my 2007 9-5 built in the GM era has been totally trouble free. Sure, the leather is cheap compared to what was in my 9000s, but I have owned at least one of every SAAB model (except […]

Wishing success to all the SAAB racers. It can’t hurt to have the best looking cars on the track.

Exactly what went on at the festival.? Never mind, based on the picture it might be better not to know..

You’ve really gone overboard this time Angelo. Next thing you know, some “conspiracy nut” will be accusing the U.S. Internal Revenue Service of inappropriate use of authority!

If they wait much longer they will have the opportunity to market the 9-3 as a retro design..

In this business, mindset is the difference between being a car company vs. an appliance company.

NEVS should build a less extreme version of this car.

It wouldn’t be the same, but I know what you mean.

As Tim pointed out earlier, the taxes are quite a bit higher for employees vs. foreign consultants so companies undoubtedly take a stance that justifies classifying a job in a way that minimizes taxes. […]

Never underestimate the inclination of political types to kick a cripple when they perceive there is advantage to be gained.

The Swedish Government has been consistent in their treatment of SAAB from the beginning. Why change now.
