Over the years. Saab's
innovations have regularly made the headlines. We took the world by storm
when we introduced the worlds turbo-powered production car We were highlighted in the press when we
pioneered daytime running lights. We were hot news when we invented the heat
ed drivers seat. And we made just as big a splash when we
brought out headlamp wash/wipes. This year, we've got an even bigger price story
than ever, with other car manufacturers often charging extra for the 'optional' features that are fitted as
standard on a Saab. But it was no doubt our unique standard features
that helped Saab win the 'What Car?' Executive Car of the Year award for the past two years But don't just read all about
them. Call in for a test drive soon.
