In 1997, Saab embarked on a transformative journey to reinvent its iconic 900 model. This journey led to the birth of the Saab 9-3, a vehicle that marked a significant departure from Saab’s traditional hatchback design. The development process was an ambitious endeavor, beginning with early sketches that envisioned a coupe-like profile and culminating in the decision to introduce a more conventional four-door sedan. This decision reflected evolving market preferences and the desire to position the 9-3 as a dynamic and sporty model. Under the guidance of Chief Designer Aamer Mahmud and the influence of three distinct design themes, the Saab 9-3 emerged as a testament to innovative design and strategic vision. Discover how the Saab 9-3’s journey from concept to reality reshaped the brand’s legacy and set new standards in the automotive industry.
