The Saab car brand has its own unique style, the uniqueness of which is largely due to the aviation past of the creators of the car. The original models SAAB 9-3 Sport Sedan SAAB 9-3 Sport Combi were no exception, with quality and detailing at the level of aircraft construction, as well as a dynamic exterior design.
So, everything is in order. The SAAB 9-3 Sport Sedan has the classic silhouette of a true coupé, with a slight hint of sportiness in the form of negative camber on the front wheels. Squinting headlights, a clear line of windows, as well as all the other lines of the body indicate the dynamics and real aviation power. The number of colors available for this model is also pleasantly pleasing - from elegant black to aggressive red.
Particularly noteworthy is the interior of the SAAB 9-3 sedan, which has a maximum of amenities. The spacious interior was made possible by the wide body and the increased wheelbase. The interior design resembles a real cockpit.
If we talk about the operational and technical characteristics of the SAAB 9-3, then first of all, I would like to note that the maximum speed claimed by the SAAB 9-3 is 250 km / h (SAAB 9-3 Sport Sedan Aero 2.8MT). By the way, for the SAAB 9-3 model, there is a fairly rich selection of power units - from 122-horsepower with a volume of 1.8, forced 2.0-liter to various degrees and up to the most powerful 255 strong V6 with a volume of 2.8 liters (all petrol). If you prefer a 2.0 liter petrol engine, expect between 150 and 210 hp.
A feature of the SAAB 9-3 car is the ability to install a new generation engine - BioPower, which runs on a mixture of ethanol and gasoline. Largely due to this option, Saab is very popular in Europe, which is literally obsessed with ecology.
Lovers of mechanics will not be disappointed, because the SAAB 9-3 can be purchased with a five or six speed gearbox. Of course, the model is also available with an automatic transmission, the nuance of which is the Saab Sentronic system, which allows you to switch to manual gear shifting.
Plenty of nice little things, like smart climate control and a great audio system, turn a car trip into a real vacation. In doing so, you can fully trust the security system, which has long proven itself, according to the EuroNCAP assessment.
As for the behavior on the road, the car did not disappoint. The SAAB 9-3 test drive showed that the car has a great engine with dynamics reminiscent of its aviation origin, which allows it to accelerate in a matter of seconds (the SAAB 9-3 2.8 MT sedan accelerates to 100 km / h in 6.7 seconds). The car just feels great on the track, but in the city, at low speeds, the steering effort is rather weak. Nevertheless, at speeds over 80 km / h, the movement of the car becomes really clear, predictable, and, undoubtedly, high-speed.
Not far behind in terms of speed and dynamics, and the SAAB 9-3 Sport Combi is an excellent sports station wagon, which is only slightly inferior to the sedan (in terms of dynamics and top speed). For the station wagon SAAB 9-3, a line of gasoline engines similar to the sedan is offered. The maximum declared speed of this model is 245 km / h (station wagon SAAB 9-3 Aero 2.8 MT).
The excellent driving characteristics that are the strength of many Saab models, this station wagon is combined with an intelligent luggage compartment. All these characteristics make the SAAB 9-3 Sport Combi an excellent partner for out-of-town travel, and just for outdoor activities.
Climate control is standard and is a two-zone automatic system. There are also such nice little things as GPS navigation, Bluetooth connection system.
Excellent braking performance for this small station wagon is provided by the unique "ReAxs" system. The gearbox varies, as well as on the sedan - your choice is "automatic" or "mechanics" 5 or 6 steps, the automatic system provides the same Saab Sentronic system.
The safety system in the SAAB 9-3 is worthy of special praise - the steel frame of the passenger compartment with a box section, amazing head restraints that provide protection against a rear impact, window and original side airbags that prevent the consequences of an impact from any direction.
