Possible electric convertible from Saab

Saab is bankrupt, the new owner Sweden National Electric Vehicle (NEVS) hatches a plan to push the Swedish giant back to life.

From an interview with a spokesperson that "The New Saab 'possibly even an electric convertible into the schedule.

Previously it was known that the new owner of Saab has plans within eighteen months an electric version of the final 9-3 on the market.

National Electric Vehicle Sweden, part of a large Chinese Holding, namely the rights to the car and has acquired himself (in his own words) have advanced the technique for electrically powered car, initially mainly for the Chinese market has meant .

NEVS has those rights not only for the 9-3 sedan, but also for the SportCombi and Convertible. The brand stated that it plans to all those model variants again a new life to award.
A logical next question is of course whether all three cars as EVs will be for sale. The PR man NEVS said very firmly request that "NEVS basically no doors closed holds ', and' it so just might."

The technique is indeed, and it would not surprise us that a lot of money with such a quiet boulevard cruiser. If this actually goes through, it means that the new Saab by that time only an electro-convertible in the assortment.

Gasoline
Electric is not the only hobby because NEVS gave the result that there is pressure being sought ways to the 9-3 as soon as possible (preferably within one year ') back into production. In that case the car will therefore be equipped with combustion engines, and that is the biggest stumbling block immediately.

The engines 'old' Saab assembled, came namely from the shelves of the former parent General Motors, and that Americans would prefer nothing to do with Saab have. "There is still a small possibility that GM engines will be delivered, but we are still working on it," said the spokesman.

"And if that does not work, then we have options with other brands. As I said, we will keep all options open and close no doors."

The only doors that are still closed, still belong to the factory in Sweden. The future will thus have to show the form in which Saab will come back, though we can see with our own eyes that the facility is ready for a second life.
