Product Overview

Saab 9-3 SportCombi 2 facelift is a compact executive station wagon in production from 2007 to 2010. It was available with a range of inline-4 and V6 engines that displaced 1.8 to 2.8 liters.

Compared to the pre-facelift model, Saab introduced optional AWD, which is good for marketing but doesn't really bring any benefit. Saab also further improved the design of the vehicle slightly, resulting in an even more elegant choice.

Drivers who appreciate handling should keep in mind that the Saab 9-3 SportCombi II uses MacPherson front suspension, which doesn't provide the best cornering performance.
