2010 Saab 9-5 SportCombi spy shots

HI-RES GALLERY: 2010 Saab 9-5 SportCombi spy shots

With Saab now in the relatively safe hands of Spyker work can continue unabated on the development of new models. We’ve already seen the new 2010 Saab 9-5 and following its launch we will eventually see its SportCombi wagon variant make its debut.

These latest spy shots show that development of the wagon is nearly complete, with a worldwide reveal by the end of the year seeming more and more likely. Apart from the rear hatch and likely extended wheelbase, the 9-5 SportCombi will be nearly identical to the sedan. Both cars will be built at Saab’s home plant in Trollhattan, Sweden.

At launch, there will be a 2.0-liter four-cylinder turbodiesel model with 160 horsepower, a 2.0-liter four-cylinder turbocharged gasoline model with 220 horsepower and a 2.8-liter turbo V-6 gasoline flagship with 300 horsepower on tap.

Shortly after launch, a 1.6-litre gasoline turbo model with 180 horsepower will be introduced, together with a 2.0-liter BioPower E85 model.

    I like it. but i hate to see more wagons in development when chrysler had dropped the magnum.If saab closes, funding will go towards shifting the model resources towards making similar models for another gm brand. we could possibly see gmc’s 1st wagon to complement its smaller suv lines.

    I'd like to think the answer could be yes, though recent events have certainly tarnished what little brand equity was left. The new 2010 9-5 looks quite promising. If only GM could have also replaced the 9-3 sooner, but they let the "bread and butter" model soldier on too long without a full model change. Not sure how many people will buy a $40K all-new 9-5 under such uncertain conditions. My father had a mid-80s Saab 900 Turbo sedan that was definitely one of my favorite childhood cars. But even I'd be weary of buying a 9-3 or 9-5 right now. Pity. I hope someone steps in quickly.

    If Saab dies I call dibs on the prototype.

    buy r4i: nice thoughts, which were mine from another Saab article before you copied and pasted them here, just so you can try to sell us something we don't want.
