Last year at the Geneve Auto Show, Saab presents a vehicle that would be loved by someone who loads a lot of stuff in their cars. The new SportCombi’s trunk or cargo bay can load 56 cubic feet of things with the rear seats folded and 18.6 cubic feet it the seats are in place. The floor folds back to reveal storage cubbies of varying size depending on how buyers equip their car since the rear bay has a flat floor flushed with the opening for easy loading with an additional four tie-down hooks to maintain everything in place.
This new vehicle is fashioned essentially like a sedan from the C-pillar forward, which a wagon adds wraparound rear glass that mirrors the look of the taillights below. The design is neat as the sedan’s, but expectedly, the wagon is our favorite of the two 9-5 styles.
In the U.S., the SportCombi will be stocked with the 220-hp, 2.0 liter turbocharged inline-four engine. Saab’s XWD all-wheel is expected to be standard. Pricing and trim levels is yet to be confirmed. But basically the same variety of sedans and SportCombi models typically command a $1000 premium over their sedan counterpart, which put a base 9-5 wagon just above of $40 thousand, while some of the new Saab parts installed as well.
