The deduction from U.S. sales data that "24% of those that leave Saab go for an SUV" is downright specious. To apply this absolute *broadest* of market trends to the buying behavior of (former) owners of one of the industry's smallest marques has no meaning whatsoever.
It's akin to saying that because 9,900 people in a sample of 10,000 prefer purple hats to green hats, the remaining 1% who explicitly prefer green hats must surely prefer purple hats just because the majority does.
You can't assign the behaviors of a majority to a minority simply because that majority displays those behaviors.
