Saab: Built from aviation
Saab has a rich history that began in the aviation industry, a background that makes its cars unique. Consider the Saab 32 Lansen, the first supersonic jet fighter that Saab ever built. Achievements and technical breakthroughs like this gave the brand a prestigious name worldwide. The know-how and experience Saab gained in the aircraft industry were later integrated into their cars, ensuring that their vehicles always exuded a sense of precision and technical superiority.
This connection to aviation is still visible in many details of their cars. Just look at the aerodynamic lines of the body or the special wheels that resemble aircraft components. Saab always brought a touch of aviation to the asphalt, and you can feel that immediately when you take your seat behind the wheel of this convertible.
From air to road: Saab's transition to the automotive industry
In 1947, Saab made its bold transition from aviation to the automotive industry. This was a daring move, but it soon proved to be a brilliant decision. Saab combined the stringent requirements of aviation with road innovations, resulting in cars that were not only robust and safe but also technological marvels. The Saab 900 S Cabrio, like this beautiful example, is living proof of that. It is a car that radiates both style and innovation, a classic that still impresses today.
