Saab to provide OnStar Generation 2.6 as standard equipment

Latest generation OnStar system includes voice-activated, hands-free
personal calling and personal e-mail, in addition to voice-activated
Internet connectivity for information like stock quotations, customized
news, etc. Customers can configure vehicle settings from the Saab USA
website. OnStar's continuing safety and security features like automatic
airbag notification and route guidance enhance Saab's real-life safety
philosophy. Twelve months of premium service is included. Saab is the only
European brand to offer such advanced voice-activated telematics across its
entire line.

Saab will continue No Charge Scheduled Maintenance Program

Introduced mid-year 2000, the no charge scheduled maintenance program will
continue to cover Saab 9-5, 9-3 SE and 9-3 Viggen models for 3 years or
36,000 miles, whichever comes first. This Program covers all the factory
recommended scheduled maintenance (excluding wear and tear items).

In addition, all Saab models now feature a new remote entry control that is
integrated into the head of the key.

Saab 9-3 Model Line

The Saab Traction Control System (TCS) is now standard on the entire 9-3
model line. Saab's TCS is an 'all-speed' system that modulates ABS braking
and electronic throttle to optimize the traction of the front drive wheels.

For 2001, Saab has discontinued its base convertible model and will offer a
value-priced SE Convertible model instead. It will feature Saab's 205
horsepower high-output turbocharged 2.0-liter engine, 16' alloy wheels, an
exterior body kit and an upgraded audio system for $39,995 (excl.
destination). A premium package will be available that includes Automatic
Climate Control, power passenger seat and driver's side memory, a rear
spoiler and leather-wrapped sport steering wheel.

A new 15' five-spoke alloy wheel replaces the ten-spoke wheel standard on
base level Saab 9-3 5-door models.

Saab 9-5 Model Line

The Saab 9-5's 2.3-liter turbocharged engine now provides 185 horsepower
(up from 170 HP) for enhanced overtaking power. The 9-5 SE will continue to
provide Saab's 3.0-liter turbocharged V6 as standard equipment.
