AWD produced using production style hardware. Epsilon platform, Saab's version of the GM Global 6 motor, Haldex AWD system (like the one Volvo uses). Prediction (as printed in NINES): the 9-2 takes some of the urgency off AWD in the USA, while AWD is less a priority in fuel-concious Europe and medium sized wagons are very popular "over there," so expect a FWD Sports Hatch first, followed by an AWD version within a year or so.
