The SAAB 9000, manufactured from 1984 to 1998, was a mid-size executive car that represented a significant leap forward for the Swedish automaker. The 1996 model year marked the final iteration of the 9000, boasting a range of improvements and refinements over its predecessors. Built on a modified version of the GM 900 platform, the 9000 was known for its spacious and comfortable interior, particularly in the rear passenger compartment. This spaciousness was further enhanced by the innovative "swing-in" rear doors, a feature that facilitated easier entry and exit for passengers while maximizing cargo space. Under the hood, the 1996 9000 offered a choice of potent engines, including a 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine and a 2.3-liter naturally aspirated four-cylinder engine. These engines were renowned for their smooth and responsive performance, paired with commendable fuel efficiency for their class.
The 1996 SAAB 9000 was a compelling blend of Swedish design and engineering prowess, offering a combination of practicality, performance, and luxury that resonated with discerning drivers. The car's distinctive styling with its aerodynamically sculpted bodywork, sloping roofline, and distinctive grille, set it apart from its contemporaries. While the 9000 shared some of its underpinnings with GM platforms, SAAB maintained its commitment to safety, engineering, and performance. The 1996 model year saw the introduction of advanced safety features like anti-lock brakes, driver and passenger airbags, and a comprehensive suite of passive safety measures, solidifying the 9000's reputation for safety and dependability.
