2006 Saab 9-3 Overview

Introduction

The Saab 9-3 is sporty, it's tight, and it handles well compared to the sports sedans, convertibles and sport wagons in its class.

The 9-3 comes in three body styles, a four-door sedan, a two-door convertible, and a four-door wagon called the SportCombi (or simply Combi). Two trim levels are offered, the 2.0T and the Aero. The 2.0T sedan, SportCombi, and convertible are similarly equipped. The 2.0T is powered by the high-output version of the turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine, rated at 210 horsepower for 2006. A five-speed manual transmission is standard. A six-speed automatic is optional. The Aero sedan, SportCombi, and convertible are similarly equipped and feature the new 2.8-liter V6 rated at 250 horsepower and 258 pound-feet of torque. A six-speed manual comes standard. The six-speed automatic is optional and features shifter paddles on the steering wheel.

For 2006, Saab has reconsidered, reformulated, and recalculated all of its 9-3 models, packages and prices.
