    Skipper commented on the post, Just hoping for things doesn’t make them happen 11 months ago

    Back in 2010 I was waiting for the new 95 estate to get into the showrooms! Anyway on a visit to my local Saab dealer I noticed a 93X which was the demo car at the time, so I drove it, fell in love with it and […]

    Markac, I fear that you are not the only person who thinks this way! I struggle to be enthusiastic about anything related to NEVS. To start a business that aims to accept a loss for ten years seems very odd and in […]

    Well it looks great to me!

    Yes Carma it is a very long time! So to suffer losses for 10 years they would need a LOT of money!

    So basically……no comment! I can’t say that I’m surprised about that to be honest. ;-) That is one of the most frustrating things about this whole affair, the lack of information. We can only hope for the best I guess.

    But herein Thylmuc lies the problem! They have not said if it will be a “Saab” 93 (epower). They have not said if they will build any cars with a normal engine and they have not defined whether these “e”cars will […]

    They may have to basically rent the use of the name, maybe not own it, that as the article say, could cost a lot of money each year! It also states that Jiang’s company relies on heavy state aid in China and has […]

    Yes hughw, you’re dead right there! “What is the job at hand”? I hate to say it, but I cannot be confident about NEVS, I have heard nothing to make me feel confident as yet. Most of the world knew little about […]

    What a total shambles this all is! The whole thing just goes from bad to worse!

    Well in another three years or so I will want a new car and I should like it to be a new Saab! I just hope and pray that there wil be new saabs to buy! At the momemt it does not look good.

    Yes jond they do need a PR guy, but maybe they don’t want to say what they are up to, because maybe they don’t care what anyone thinks because maybe they don’t need the Saab fans, or the general westerm car buying […]

    If NEVS are trying to find a way to bring back the old Saab and make us all happy, then it would be great! But we still have not heard anything from NEVS itself of course! If they are looking for some sort of […]

    Well NEVS don’t seem to say very much, they basically leave it to the rest of the world to speculate on just about everything. They are clearly ignoring Saab owners like us, as well as the rest of the planet from […]

    I don’t think the receivers CAN sell the Saab name as it was not included in the Saab estate, it belongs to others! NEVS only bought a factory and some technology as far as I know.

    In reply to: Skipper commented on the post, No brand name for NEVS, not yet at least Well RS all I can say is that if there had been more/better communication, many of us would not be so sceptical about NEVS. Let’s face it, […] View

    Angelo I guess we have the same thought pattern here! Any new business that I’ve ever seen wants hit the headlines with news about what they are going to do, what they will make, what they will sell, how much it will cost etc. New ventures normally sing loud and long about their ideas and tell us all how much we will want their products.

      It concerns me that we're even discussing what types of cars they might build----step one is determining if they know how to run a business at all. It's not looking like it. I'm not sure this bunch could run a popsicle stand much less a car company. It's actually becoming embarassing having the name Saab attached to this circus.

    OK…So NEVS have not actually bought anything yet? NEVS have not got the Saab name or logo? NEVS apparently have a plan but nobody really knows what it is? I just do not like the look of this at all, my […]

    When Mahindra was mentioned last week I became very hopeful, however I am starting to feel very down about this whole thing once more. What exactly are they going to build and sell, and when? I just cannot see how […]

      I dont think they have a plan Skipper, I don't think they have a clue.
