No one gets the unruly Saab below. No one.

The Saab 9-3 is alive! Sort of. After the failed attempt of Victor Muller to GM disposed of Saab back on, were the remnants of the brand sold to the Chinese NEVS, with the plan to have a elektroversie of the sedan to develop. That plan failed miserably, and the 9-3 on the market since 1998 – at the dead seemed to be written down.

None of that, because the Turkish minister of Science and Technology, Fikri Işık has signed a deal with NEVS to be the intellectual property of the Saab 9-3 to take over, according to the Hurriet Daily News. In a nutshell, the Turkish state will get the platform of the 9-3, and will, in cooperation with NEVS to develop a car that in Turkey of the band, scrolls, filled with Turkish elements. He does not go under the name of Saab’s through life, which are rights they have not purchased.

About the engines, very little is known, however, is the term ‘range-extender’ cases and claim that 85% of the car from the Turkish parts. He should be in 2020 come on to the market. Or that the front is on the picture above, this is clearly Cadillac is stolen, is not known.
