The new Saab 9-3 range will launch in the autumn in the UK with styling cues from the lauded Aero-X concept car.
Aero-X DNA can be seen in the clamshell bonnet, front bumper and wings, ‘signature’ lighting, new door panels and rear styling features.
“We are introducing significant developments across three key areas: design, performance and handling,” says Jan Ake Jonsson, Managing Director of Saab Automobile.
“The result is a major step forward in strengthening the visual and driving appeal of our core product line-up, which accounts for about two-thirds of global sales.”
The new 9-3 range comprises Sport Saloon, SportWagon and Convertible models, all available with petrol, diesel or BioPower engine variants.
The cars will be available in four forms in the UK, Airflow, Linear SE, Vector Sport and Aero.

LSUK, thought to have been rescused by Euro Car Parts, has been unexpectedly closed by the new owners with the loss of over 600 jobs.
