Also he adds this too – “The new factory , and the fact that the company has two Chinese car factories, will not, after all, reduce the chances of car manufacturing in Trollhättan!

He says that the plan is still manufacturing in Trollhättan: “Absolutely. It is not just our dream, but our plan and as soon as it goes. It is important that we produce cars in Trollhättan” – Kai said. But, on the other side, we have other news – 80 industrial robots from the old Saab factory in Trollhättan are auctioned?! Still, Nevs has not built a single sellable electric car after the purchase of Saab Automobile’s bankruptcy estate six years ago.

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.
