SAAB, great looking cars with futuristic features!
And they were build super well.
SAAB, the car you buy, because, um... ...?
Specifically, pre-GM Saab.
SAAB is dead?? Damn
SAAB Automotive got killed by GM, resurrected by Spyker, subsequently killed again by debtors, resurrected again by Chinese investors who lost the rights to the brand, turned into NEVS (National Electric Vehicles Sweden), ran out of money again due to COVID, and has since been in "hibernation"/limbo. Most recently Stenhaga bought the remainder of the factory in Trollhättan, and EV Electra were considering to buy what's left of the production models. That deal fell through and, last I heard of it, whatever is left of the NEVS were like 20 folks who got fired in 2024.
So yeah, to quote McCoy "He's dead Jim".
