AutoSpies.com proves Saab XWD out guns Audi's Quattro and Porsche Turbo AWD?

During the press presentation this week of the 2008 Saab 9-3, they revealed their new Cross wheel drive system (XWD) that will be coming to your dealership in early 2008.

The presentation really got interesting when one of their product manager's (Andreas Andersson) who has extensive race and AWD experience, spewed out that the new system was more effective than Audi's quattro and beat a Porsche 911 Turbo through the cones, in the test runs!...

The sad truth is that Saabs are no longer Saabs. They are now glorified Vauxhalls. And that means no one cares about them any more.

that's BS, Saab may be part of GM, but in appearance they're still as saab as they were years ago. And that's what matters

Ι remember when Lutz said that the Saturn Vue "is easily comparable to X5 and better than X3".

Problem is that BMW had already presented a new X5.

So by the time this XWD reaches production Audi will have come up with something better.
