Electric cars cannot be viable if they have to be given away!

Once the government of a country has got everyone in electric cars they can proclaim that they are “green” and fit to save the world.

Then they […]

The front end is heavy. But that’s pedestrian safety for you. All cars will look like this soon.

Already being made!

It’s the MG6…

That would be no good for me. That slippery bit of plastic at the bottom would be hard to grip with my knees. A cup in a cupholder’s all very well, but you need to use your hands to drink from it. I only use my […]

Still not convinced by all this electrickery. Fast charging systems have been developed in the past, but they have always shortened the life of the battery being charged. It’s possibly OK as an emergency system, […]

OK. NEVS are “Who”.

Ask them the important stuff.

“What”, “Where”, “When” & “How”.

Then ask if they have anyone in mind for a rescue package in a couple of years or so.

There is going to be a big problem with electric cars if they become popular. It may kill the cars altogether. If you have a lot of electric cars on the road, the government will lose the tax they charge on […]

You’re right. It’s wrong.

But why would anyone want a family sized car like a Saab 9-3 on a Phoenix platform just for going to the shops?

A family sized car has to take the family on holiday and to visit the grandparents.

And if […]

Next month I plan to drive from London to the Mosel, on to Prague, up to Dresden and back to London. There will be some stages of that journey that will be over 400 miles in one go. A electric car would be […]

I suppose that I felt they were very short sighted when they stopped supplying parts due to non-payment. OK, they were not getting money they were due, but how much did they lose when Saab went under? Probably […]

None of this will affect NEVS they have nothing to do with the Saab name. They just bought the buildings in Trollhattan along with some designs on paper. This is just a bunch of executives trying to save […]

There is a saying that what’s good for General Motors is good for America.

Does anyone really think that an American court is going to let GM lose this? The playing field is not level.

Check out the Dealer List on the Hirsch website. Hopefully it is up to date.

I think your nearest dealer is in New Jersey.

Same weekend as the Viechtach meeting?

I remember the first Saab Trek. It was ********** freezing out there!!!! We did the changeover at the Heritage Motor Museum at Gaydon.

Why would he be interested in anything that we want? I don’t think any of us buy new cars. And some of us don’t even buy old cars made by “GM Saab”.

We are past it and gone. We will only be interested in […]

I wonder how far I could get in an electric car with a small Honda generator in the boot and a set of jump leads?

Batteries don’t last for ever. If a battery pack lasts three years and costs ££££££ to replace, these electric cars will have NO resale value. How often do you hear car owners saying things like “I’m not going […]

NEVS backwards is a good Norse name……..
