Saab 9-1 - the opinion
So the Saab 9-1 - IF it is made, and we certainly hope it is, is likely to be made on a small car platform such as the Gamma architecture currently used on the Opel Corsa (see the headline below this one).

The bottom line: it’s going to be small, which is exactly what a compact car should be, I guess.
