SAAB VS. SCEPTICISM

Black is Back

The Saab 9-3 Turbo X is the true heir to the classic Saab Turbos of the 1970s and 1980s. It is a limited edition model and is only available in Jet Black metallic paint as an homage to the original Saab 900 Turbo. So take a good look, a car like this only comes around every thirty years.

Thirty years ago, Saab stunned the automotive world by revealing its first turbocharged model. Now, with the Saab 9-3 Turbo X, for the first time Saab unleashes turbo power through XWD (cross wheel drive), an innovative all-wheel drive system. Thanks to “rightsizing” the 280PS, 2.8 V6 Turbo engine has the characteristics of a V8 engine: 400Nm of torque and an acceleration of 0–60mph in 5.4 seconds. As if this wasn’t enough, the sport chassis, brakes and electronic control systems combine to give you the drive of your life.
