Jason Castriota joins Alrik Söderlind’s Fenix series to explain the engineering behind the PhoeniX concept, the advanced next-generation 9-3 and the separate plans for a compact 9-2 and modern Sonett.
Saab’s BMW engine program advanced far beyond the supply agreement announced in 2010. Peter Dahl explains how Project 540 gained a running N18-powered mule in three weeks, why Saab chose the 1.6-liter turbo, and how roughly 100 engines reached Trollhättan before bankruptcy.
A 2011 academic study by researchers from Cambridge Judge Business School and the University of Edinburgh set out to determine who was responsible for Saab Automobile’s bankruptcy. We go through its findings in detail - the production numbers, the GM years, Spyker’s 93-day rescue, and the China deal that GM refused to allow.
The second Alriks Bilar episode on Saab Fenix shows that Project 540 was not a facelift program, but a serious chassis leap for the 9-3 successor Saab never launched.
Bob Lutz’s blunt Motor1 comments ignited a wave of reactions and over 120 SaabPlanet readers pushed back with their own theories, memories, and alleged insider detail. This follow-up digs into what can actually be verified from Saab’s final GM decade: chronic underinvestment, diverted resources, tech sharing that favored other GM brands, and the cancellations that left Saab without a viable product runway. We also place selected reader claims in context, clearly separating what’s documentable from what remains unproven - but hard to ignore.
The Netherlands has long been a safe haven for Saab ownership. A sudden youngtimer tax change now puts that entire ecosystem under pressure.
Thirteen years after Uppdrag granskning dissected Saab’s collapse, the documentary still unsettles. Beyond the headlines are taped confrontations, redacted emails, and a $1 million draft that scorched trust. We revisit what the film proved, what it couldn’t, and why its lessons still echo in Trollhättan and far beyond.
Frank Smit, the visionary behind Emily GT, now turns his passion toward reviving the Saab Sonett, blending innovation with heritage in a bold new chapter.
