Don’t Be Saab
This company is like a fucking zombie – nothing short of a shot to the head will kill it:
UPDATE: Looks like Chinese/Japanese-Swedish company National Electric Vehicle Sweden (NEVS) bought Saab with the intention of producing, mostly, electric vehicles. Saabs have always been strange, so why not?
UPDATE 2: Our friends at Saabs United have more details on the purchase, but here are the bullet points:
- NEVS bought the intellectual property rights to the 9-3 but nothing else
- The first new Saab product will be an electric 9-3 for China
- The cars will be designed and built in Sweden
Don’t think I don’t love this – Saab was/is a great brand, and now they’re back. Top Gear’s eulogy (premature, it turns out) after the jump:
