The Legacy of the Saab 9-5 NG
The Saab 9-5 NG represents a bold chapter in automotive history, embodying the determination and innovation that defined the brand’s final years. Launched during Saab’s final chapter under Victor Muller’s leadership, the 9-5 NG was built between 2010 and 2011, with only 11,000 units produced worldwide. This sleek sedan showcased cutting-edge features that were ahead of its time, including head-up displays, advanced infotainment systems, and the distinctive hockey stick window line that pays homage to Saab’s design heritage.
This particular example, sourced directly from its first Swiss owner, embodies the best of the 9-5 NG lineup. It has been meticulously maintained, with all services carried out at official Saab garages, ensuring it remains in near-new condition. The car’s timeless design and innovative features make it a perfect representation of what could have been for Saab.
A Standout Configuration
This 2010 Saab 9-5 NG Aero XWD features a 2.0-liter turbocharged engine delivering 220 hp, paired with a 6-speed automatic transmission and Saab’s renowned XWD all-wheel-drive system. The drivetrain offers a smooth and responsive experience, and for those seeking even more power, a software upgrade by DionHPT can push it to 275 hp and over 420 Nm of torque.
Design and Features
Finished in jet black metallic, this Aero model is enhanced with subtle aluminum accents in the bumper and 19-inch turbine wheels, creating a perfect contrast that highlights its sleek lines. Its LED light bar at the rear and ice-blue headlamps complete the modern, unmistakably Saab aesthetic.
Inside, the attention to detail continues with features such as:
- Ergonomic leather seats with extendable cushions for maximum comfort.
- Ventilated and heated front seats with memory settings for the driver.
- Head-Up Display (HUD) projecting key driving information directly onto the windshield.
- DriveSense system allowing the driver to adjust suspension, steering, and drivetrain settings.
- Harman Kardon audio system paired with a touchscreen navigation system.
These premium touches elevate this Saab above its competitors, offering a level of luxury that belies its understated design.
A Time Capsule of Saab Engineering
This car’s standout feature is its exceptionally low mileage—just 85,000 km, rare for a model of this age. It has been lovingly preserved by its previous owner and serviced exclusively at Saab-certified garages, including Lerch AG in Rothrist-Aarau and Garage HP Buser in Augst. David Joost ensures that the tradition of expert care continues, with plans for a full inspection and service at Saab Apeldoorn before delivery to its next owner.
The meticulous care extends to the interior and exterior, both of which remain in pristine condition. From the flawless paintwork to the immaculate leather upholstery, this Saab 9-5 NG Aero feels as fresh as the day it left the factory.
Why This Saab 9-5 NG Aero Is Unique
While many Saabs on the market offer practicality or performance, this particular 9-5 Aero excels in both. Its XWD system provides all-weather confidence, while the DriveSense settings allow for a personalized driving experience. The car also includes thoughtful touches like a U-Rail cargo divider in the trunk and adaptive xenon headlights that swivel with the road for improved visibility.
What truly sets this Saab apart is its heritage and exclusivity. As a final-generation 9-5 NG, it represents the last wave of Saab innovation. It’s not just a car—it’s a collector’s item, a piece of automotive history that carries the spirit of a brand beloved by enthusiasts worldwide.
Final Thoughts
David Joost Kamermans continues to impress with his selection of rare and collectible Saabs, and this 2010 Saab 9-5 NG Aero XWD is no exception. With its first-owner history, low mileage, and pristine condition, it represents a unique opportunity for Saab enthusiasts. The price of €26,950 may seem steep for a used vehicle, but consider this: in today’s market, that’s the starting price for a mid-range car with little to no equipment and a lackluster engine. Comparatively, this Saab offers unparalleled engineering, luxury, and heritage—qualities that make it far more than just a car.
