3D Model of the Saab 9-3

In 2003 a brand new Saab 9-3 was launched. The car was well received and lauded for its good driving characteristics. New engine options were added, both with and without turbo.

The Saab 9-3 generation 2 is available with two “global” gasoline engines, a four-cylinder straight engine and a six-cylinder V engine . A proprietary fiber-optic electric/electronic system, the possibility of AWD (dubbed Saab XWD) are just a few of the features that are exclusive to the Saab 9-3.

The most drastic change from the former generation was the elimination of the hatchback design. The second-generation 9-3 is available as a four-door saloon, an estate (known as the SportWagon, SportCombi or Sport-Hatch dependant on the market), and a two-door convertible (introduced in 2004).

In the 2006 model year the 9-3 Sport Wagon was introduced together with the 6-cylinder B284 engine with variable intake camshaft phasing (CVCP) and a twin scroll turbocharger.
