The Saab 9-4X is a 4-door SUV from GM (General Motors), built from 2011, as electrification stopped being an experiment and the crossover took every market. Under the bonnet: 2.8 . Ernesto Rupar drew it.
The background
The Saab 9-4X is a mid-size luxury crossover SUV that was introduced at the 2010 LA Auto Show. It is based on the all-wheel-drive GM Theta Premium platform, which also forms the basis for the Cadillac SRX. Production of the 9-4X began in 2011, at General Motors' Ramos Arizpe Assembly in Mexico, but halted before the end of that year as a result of the bankruptcy of Saab, leaving a total of 814 assembled under Saab Automobile and almost 300 by GM.
The engineering
Power comes from 2.8 other versions carried different engines, listed in the specification table below. It shifts through a 6-speed automatic. The wheelbase is 110.5 in. These are manufacturer figures carried by Wikipedia and Wikidata, not road-test measurements.
Where it sits
Its family tree is legible: it took over from the Saab 9-7X; assembly was at Ramos Arizpe (Ramos Arizpe Assembly), Mexico. Its contemporaries in the catalogue — the Lamborghini Aventador, the Lexus LFA, the Nissan Leaf — show what else the money bought that year. Its GM (General Motors) stablemates include the 1955 Chevrolet and the 1957 Chevrolet.
