New Saab 9-5 Revealed
The new Saab 9-5 (2010) will launch at Frankfurt in September
Well, it certainly looks like what we have here are the first leaked official shots of the new Saab 9-5. They’ve cropped up on the Saab United web site, and look pretty convincing to us. But they’re obviously not straight out of Saab – they look a little too ‘dirty’ to us – but these could have done the rounds before they found their way on to the Interweb. Still, we’re pretty convinced they are on the money.
The new Saab 9-5 is very overdue. The current model is now 12 years old, and long due for replacement. But GM’s problems and now Saab’s takeover by Koenigsegg have conspired to delay the new 9-5, but it now looks clear that it will launch officially at Frankfurt in September.
Based on the same GM platform as the new Vauxhall Insignia , the new Saab 9-5 will be stretched and tweaked to produce a 5 metre long car with a more premium feel. Engines are likely to include a bio-fuel option and offer four-pot petrol and diesel versions. The likely range topper will be a 4WD 3.6 litre V6 turbo with around 325bhp.
The new Saab 9-5 Estate is a cracking looking car
Saab need the 9-5 to work for them, and if these renderings are right they’ve produced a good-looking Saab which should sell well. The estate in particular is a very good looking car and does reflect Saab’s style despite the constraints of the Insignia underpinnings.
Real announcements tend to follow up these sorts of leaks,m so we’llk probably have more confirmation from Saab on details in the next few days.

Nice,real nice.However do to having a large dog and this & that,should we come into a good job(i.e.cash)or saab come up with a brilliant deal e.g.mobility/long or short term lease(as opposed to hire)we would love one of these machines.This new 95 is a vast improvement over their designes for quite some time,in fact,since the 900 EMS.Will SAAB ever make a large car again similar to the ‘Carlsson’.SAAB cars recently have only been mid-sized bodies.I like a car with plenty of room,no doubt this ‘newbie’ is very comfortable.Don’t like loads of gadgets and BS.Keep it simple.I’m sure SAAB’s have the quality.We did actually own a Carlsson but it was on it’s last legs and been abused.It only lasted 2/3 months and them’BOOM’! That thing could shift though.Once left an audi TT for dead on the Colchester by-pass.Good times.Make us an offer.We really would love a new SAAB. Joe & Mary of Armagh N.I.
