[TuuSaR]

Speaking to Autocar at the recent Paris Motor Show, Lutz revealed the extent to which the car maker will be re-invented

The 9-2X and 9-7X pose a short-term risk to the brand, but if we hadn’t put those cars into the US distribution network we would have lost the dealers.’ And without them, Saab would be finished.

He insisted that future Saabs would be front- or four-wheel-drive

Lutz said that his ‘ideal’ Saab line-up would be ‘a small, Astra-sized car, a 9-3, 9-5 and SUV and a nice crossover… and maybe a sports car.’
