There is just so much to cover here it’s almost overwhelming. I’m starting to get sick, probably from being put in a
room with a few hundred domestic and foreign journalists, and my energy level is dropping. But I soldier on. Take the
Saab 9-7X. It’s just a normal, all-new model on the floor just as it will be when the hall opens to the public. For
those that are wondering, the interior is very nice and has lots of Saab character including the centrally placed
ignition and cupholder smack dab in the middle of the dash, so you can spill your coffee all over the stereo. The
materials and fit and finish are actually much higher quality than I thought they’d be. There is tons of room in the
hatch. While the design isn’t for everyone, Saab-ophiles now have an SUV option.
