"The replacement for the 9-3 â please note there hasnât been a name chosen for that car yet â thatâs the bread and butter. Itâs the car that has to make Saab profitable. It has to make our future. No matter how good the 9-5 does and no matter how good the 9-4x does, those two cars together will probably not reach 65% of the volume of the 9-3 replacement.
If we donât make the right product now, if we donât reach our goals now, then weâre all going to be looking for other things to do.
But thatâs not going to be the case. Weâre going to make this car happen. Weâre going to do what people internally are calling the best Saab ever with unsurpassed content, great build quality, a lot of technological breakthroughs, and then thereâs the new agreement with BMW for the 1.6T motor. Itâs going to be a) a true Saab in the truest sense because Saabâs an independent company again, which is allowing us to push and do something different, and b) itâll be true to the companyâs roots and weâre very excited about that."
Well If they don't make it, they're sure going down swinging. Makes me think they have a real shot at making it.
