SaabUSA post Saab technology section
SaabUSA have posted a technology section to their website, aimed towards educating people abot two key Saab technologies - one old and one new: Turbocharging and XWD. We’ve been calling on Saab to talk more about their capabilities and sell their credentials a bit more, so this is a definite step in the right direction.
European 2.0T to get XWD and eLSD
When details of the 2009 Saab 9-3 for the US market emerged last month, there was welcome news in the form of XWD being added to the 2.0T range. US customers had to be content with the base version of the technology, however, as there is no eLSD available on the 2.0T range for the US market in 2009.

I suspect US customers are going to be less than pleased, then, when they hear that their European counterparts will have access to the full XWD system in the 2.0T range, with the eLSD becoming an option in European markets in the coming year.
