The 1976 Saab 99 EMS - Refined


ORANGE, CONNECTICUT -- The 1976 Saab 99 EMS incorporates more than 40 engineering refinements and includes a number of new ones designed especially to improve its already widely hailed sports sedan performance and handling characteristics.

Among the engineering refinements for the 1976 Saab 99 models are a new clutch slave cylinder that renders the clutch self-adjusting, new rear brake caliper pistons, an electric rear window defroster and a stylized body side molding trim.

For even more improved handling and road holding the EMS will offer Bilstein gas-filled shock absorbers and Pirelli CN-36 steel-belted 175/70 HR15 radial tires with 5" aluminum alloy wheels for a more responsive ride. A front air spoiler of molded black plastic has been added to aid aerodynamics and reduce fuel consumption.

Powered by a Swedish-built 2-liter overhead cam four cylinder engine that employs the Bosch Continuous Fuel Injection System, the Saab EMS delivers 115 hp (SAE net) and 123 ft./lbs. of torque. The 1976 Saab 99 EMS does not require a catalytic converter or thermal reactor and operates on regular leaded or unleaded fuel. The 1976 Saab EMS will again be available in both Sterling Silver Metallic and Black, with contrasting racing stripes and an optional sliding steel sun roof. In addition to a special interior trim, the EMS will have a specially carpeted luggage compartment, providing further evidence that the Saab 99 EMS is the exciting luxury sports sedan for 1976. It is available at more than 375 Saab dealers nationwide.

Editors Note: California, Nevada, Arizona -- 110hp (SAE net) and 119 ft./lbs/ torque.
