Yeah, that's right. Four cylinder engines tend to have a lot of low end torque but Saabs have bags of it by design. They use small turbos that spool up quick. Saab talks a lot about this their promotional literature of the day. It's part of what makes them so much faster in real world situations than their 0-60 & 1/4 mile times would suggest. That's why you can dust off a lot of cars that are much faster--on paper. That's why they're so much FUN!
