Oh, it’s a wagon darnit! Are we as Americans still squemish over that word? Is the stigma too much to bear? I was
hoping that the SportCombi name was a European thing, but I just checked the Saab U.S. website and SportCombi it is. I
like the wagon’s look and though not a fan of clear taillights, these aren’t really clear; they are more like a
white-out style (verses the smoked/blacked out look). Different. There’s a little outline of a plane on the rear
load-floor to remind us of Saab’s rich aviation history. It’s a neat little detail piece.
