SAAB 900: A Swedish Story

A classic car was born with the introduction of the Saab 900 in 1978. It had all the characteristics of earlier Saabs with their rally-winning reputation - in addition to being beloved family cars. These characteristics were refined further over the years within a practical and well-designed body.

Engineers and designers at Saab Automobile had these standards to uphold when the new Saab 900 was conceived. This book chronicles the entire development process in the making of a new car: how they went about choosing technical solutions and why; test driving: designing, and pre-production preparations. Seldom has the birth of a car been described so meticulously.
