Turbocharged Saab is top of its class



Firmly asserting itself as a market leader and pioneer of turbocharged technology, Saab has announced the introduction of its revolutionary TTiD engine, now available at Concept Saab.

The Swedish marque’s new 9-3 range features a powerful four cylinder diesel engine with a unique two-stage turbocharging system, a world ‘first’ in the premium car segment, offering exceptional levels of efficiency. The 1.9-litre, 16-valve engine, badged TTiD, produces 180 hp (132kW) and 400 Nm of maximum torque, specific power outputs that are unmatched among competitor products on the market.

With a combined fuel consumption of 50.4mpg for the Saloon, and an exceptionally low CO2 emissions rate of just 149g/km, this engine will also offer class-leading economy, together with in-gear performance on a par with the 2.8V6 turbo petrol engine, making it an attractive proposition for fleet decision makers and business motorists.

These new reduced emissions figures improve the Benefit-in-Kind (BIK) banding with immediate effect, significantly reducing the on-the-road costs for these models as many of the vehicles now fall into lower Vehicle Excise Duty bands.

As a result of the reduced CO2 emissions, customers looking to purchase New Saab 9-3 Aero 1.9TTiD models could enjoy a tax saving of up to £646 per annum. The Saab TTiD engine is available in Aero and Vector Sport variants and is offered in all three bodystyles of Saloon, SportWagon and Convertible.

Prices start from just £25,315 for the Vector Sport model.

The new 9-3 range is an attractive proposition for fleet decision makers and business motorists.
