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.
A new chapter in Trollhättan’s automotive history is unfolding as four former Saab and NEVS engineers launch Trollhattan Mobility. Operating from NEVS’s old facilities and backed by the motorsport-savvy PWR Group, the team is working on a confidential vehicle project that could eventually bring small-scale car production back to Stallbacka. With deep roots in Saab’s legacy and a proven ability to deliver under pressure, they aim to turn Trollhättan into a modern hub for fast, agile vehicle development.
In this exclusive Q&A, Frank Smit discusses the Emily GT’s advanced AWD system, ultra-fast 500 kW charging, and what makes this $117K EV a game-changer.
NEVS may be in hibernation, but the fight to keep Saab’s engineering legacy alive continues through the Emily GT. With passionate figures like CEO Nina Selander and former development lead Frank Smit still advocating for the prototype, and recent visits from industry consultants reigniting interest, the question remains: Will the Emily GT ever hit the streets, or will it remain a symbol of unfulfilled potential? As reports emerge from insiders who have experienced the car firsthand, the world watches to see if this Saab-inspired EV can secure the backing it needs to become reality.
