and Saab says the following: 1990 Total Weight 1780-1900 kg, Kerb Weight (running weight + 70 kg driver) 1380-1525 kg. 1993 Total Weight 1960 kg, Kerb Weight 1410-1555 kg. So in these handbooks they reckoned the new car was typically 30 kg (66 lbs) heavier than the old car.
However: in the 1993 sales brochure, the Kerb Weight is given as about 1340-1485 kg, or 70 kg less across the range than the handbook gives for the same year, and less than the old style. Maximum Total Weight in the brochure is the same as the handbook, at 1960 kg.
So guess what - Saab didn't know how much they weighed either.
Weights aren't given in the 1993 Aero brochure - they're more interested in telling you how fast it goes.
