Anna Andersson from automotorsport.se seems to have a great time in Jukkasjärvi driving the 9-5 on an ice lake under the supervision of Mr. Per Eklund.
This is one of those telephone calls to a reporter that automotorsport seems to do to grow the interest on the next edition of their magazine.
And so as a last question to her, after talking about the 9-4x Pär Brandt asks her, if she had seen something else over there.
This is the Googletrans of her answer.
Well, we have seen Saab’s new eco-car model. It will be an efficient diesel has a CO2 emissions below 120 g / km. But that should not I tell you, there is an embargo on the car until next week when they celebrate Independence Day in Trollhättan. But I can say as much as it is quite similar to another green car model but looks more spacious out …
Is this “green car” the 9-3SC? Or is she talking about a 9-5 SC, which looks more spacious than a V70?
We will know next week.
That was som nice reading from AMS, Anna likes the design of the 9-4x and she thinks the new 9-5 looks soooo god. Nice to hear that there are reporters with good taste.
About the green car, it will most certainlty be the 9-3 SC.
Yes 9-3SC more spaces than 9-3SS
It feels weird that there would be so much secrecy and embargos and stuff going on if if was about the ECO 9-3SC – hasn’t the car been officially announced already? Ttela.se did run quite a big story about it a couple of days ago…
But yeah, I suppose it’s about the 9-3SC anyway. I think Anna means that the “secret” car is more spacious looking than “another green car” = the ECO 9-3SS.
I would say that the fact that a 9-3 SC sub-120 car is coming is not a secret. The embargo is for the design, because I think that the 9-3 SC will be the Griffin edition (as with the 9-3 SS) so that’s why it’s so much “hush hush”. TTELA did run a story – but the image was not on the new version. 😉
You beat me to it by minutes.

I know the English press will be happy with what Saab provide, the whole experience at Jukasjarvi is amazing.
maybe a saab version of the volt?
No,
the Saab Elektrisk has already been presented. 😀
Would that make it the “Ja-Volt” ? 😀
Nein. (Or should that be, “Nine”? 🙂 )

automotorundsport.se doesn’t exist 😆 You gave away your nationality Red J 😉
lala,
yes I use to read the German version of Auto-motor-und-sport, but I’m not sure if I’ve given away my nationality.. 😉
What is your nationality and where do you live?
haha that’s true. I saw it because I have made the same mistake numerous times =)
Apart from the obvious; could be Austrian, could be Swiss or maybe Dutch. Then of course many people can read German quite a bit in Europe. Me Myself read German in School as a third language, und Ich can noch ein bisschen verstehen…
Hey!
Has anyone seen the picture of the instrument cluster in the automotorsport article? What i can se it look like the instruments got a nice silvery frame around them, ist that a part of the 2012 interior update maybe?
Ankan,
that is a 9-4x cluster, and not a 9-5 cluster.
That´s makes sense! 🙂
the 2011 9-3 already has 119g/km co2.
So I think it’s the 9-5 2012 mod that comes with a diesel engine with 120 g/km
Only the 9-3 Sedan.. not the Combi. 😉
