Product Overview

Saab 9-5 Wagon facelift 2 (chassis code YS3E) is an executive station wagon in production from 2005 to 2010. It was available with a range of inline-4 engines that displaced 1.9 to 2.3 liters.
Regrettably, Saab discontinued the V6 petrol and diesel engines. A major re-styling has been introduced that made the 9-5 Wagon look almost like a different model from some angles.
A downside is that the 9-5 continued to use 5-speed manual and automatic transmissions, which at this point was outdated.
