57,267 of Registered SAAB Cars on German Roads in 2014

Of course, Volkswagen, Opel and Mercedes Benz remain the most common car brands registered in Germany. The total number of cars in Germany increased by 1% in 2014,  to a record 61.5 million vehicles.

As expected, due to the absence of new Saab registrations, number of Saab vehicles on German roads from year to year decreases. But, still it is a figure that is around 60 000.

In 2012 it was registered 63,535 Saab’s, in 2013 60.296, and last in 2014 on German roads were 57,267 Saab cars, with 0.1 of Market share (statistics released by the KBA).

For over 15 years, Goran Aničić has been passionately focused on Saab automobiles and everything related to them. His initial encounter with Saab cars took place back in 2003 when the first Saab 9-3 and sedan version were introduced. At that moment, he was captivated by the car's Scandinavian design logic and top-notch engineering, and everything that followed stemmed from that first encounter. Later on, through his work at the editorial team of the Serbian automotive magazines "Autostart" and later "AutoBild," he had the opportunity to engage more closely with Saab vehicles. In 2008, he tested the latest Saab cars of that time, such as the Saab 9-3 TTiD Aero and Saab 9-3 Turbo X. In 2010, as the sole blogger from the region, he participated in the Saab 9-5ng presentation in Trollhättan, Sweden. Alongside journalists from around the world, he got a firsthand experience of the pinnacle of technological offerings from Saab at that time. Currently, Goran owns two Saabs: a 2008 Saab 9-3 Vector Sportcombi with a manual transmission, and a Saab 9-3 Aero Griffin Sport Sedan from the last generation, which rolled off the production line in Trollhättan in December 2011.
