The new Saab 9-3 for 2008 is set to make its international debut at the Saab Festival in Trollhattan, Sweden, on Sunday June 10th, 2007. This will be 60 years to the day since the first Saab model was unveiled.
The 2008 Saab 9-3 will have an option for a new all-wheel-drive system, for which they've registered the name XWD. It's a new generation Haldex system. The car will also feature a new active stability control program.
The new MY2008 car will likely be available shortly after it's unveiling, but it's believed that the XWD versions of the car will not be available until later in 2007, most likely October or November.
There is also a new project in house called Black Turbo, which will bring the output to a rumoured maximum of between 290 and 320hp. Obviously this will also make use of the XWD system to put the power to the ground. This is believed to be available from March or April 2008 (oh, it's so hard to wait!).
There is also believed to be a twin-turbo diesel offering on the way for the European market. It's believed to be similar to the Opel Antara Concept engine which produced 212hp and 400Nm of torque.
These are the first official photos of the new Saab 9-3 Sport Combi for model year 2008, anywhere on the internet! Saabscene was the first website in the world to reveal the Saab Aero-X, and now we have done it again with the first clear photos that are not CGI and are not test mules covered in camouflage
