If the brand works in China (and we all know it has a decent foothold in Sweden) then it should have no problem. Bring back the SAABs!

Let's hope this turns out Sweede and doesn't turn into another Saab fest for us enthusiasts. I can't take any more heartbreak.

And, according to NEVS, they are resuming making the Aero!

I have mixed feelings about it. So far the only markets are China and Sweden. For the time being it'll be a $42,000+ 9-3, which is about 13 years old and only available in one trim option, using an engine that can barely hold a flame to what BMW/Mercedes/Audi offer in that price segment. At least until the new versions are shown next year.

Since there are no US/Australia/UK plans, I'm glad that they survived, but much like an Alfa, I can't get one and it won't be any time soon.

Will they last? If they get things on track and bulk sale in China. But it's pretty clear that they are just doing a show by selling them in Sweden (can't sell a Swedish brand in China if said brand isn't sold in Sweden). But hey, I'd love to be proven wrong.

Until then, I'm going to look at a Mini.

Ça reste une chevette, 60 hp, propulsion à CARBU. Pas de quoi viré fou avec ça.
