First SAAB Aero-X pic? - 02-21-2006, 10:38 AM



1. Vehicle name: Aero-X

2. Unveiling: Feb 27 at 5pm in a special event prior to the Geneva Motor Show

3. The car is purely a design concept, intended to give focus to Saab's future design direction. It's said to point towards the Sonett of the past and Saab's aviation heritage in general and is based on a unique platform not currently in production.

4. The car will feature a 3 litre V6 (unverified) fitted with Biopower bits and twin turbo. The Saab press release mentions 400hp.

5. The 'X' designation, combined with the hefty horsepower indicates that AWD will be fitted.

6. The 2-door coupe body is reported to be around the size of an Aston Martin DB9 and features either upward tilting or sliding doors. A journo from Popular Mechanics who saw the sketches said "The front doors and the cockpit glass are connected and tilt forward in one big unit."

7. The concept may possibly go into production on a shortened Epsilon II platform depending on public reaction.

If you mean Alfa Romeo you are not wrong. The 159 is based on GM's Epsilon platform (same as Opel Vectra, FIAT Chroma and SAAB 9-3).

Nope, I mean the new Ferrari 599GTB, its doors looks similar to the ones on a Z06 C6.
