2010 Saab 9-3X

2010 SAAB 9-3X design review

​            It just seems like Europe has a thing for soft road wagons.  Like Audi, Saab is now jumping into the off-road wagon field with its new 2010 9-3x.  This may be a small segment in North America, but in Europe where petrol costs a lot more, it seems that everyone is not getting into off road wagons, instead of SUV’s or CUV’s.  

       The new 9-3x maybe a take on the 9-3 line but it does have some minor differences which make it stand out from its brothers.  The 9-3x still does retain its aggressive styling and smooth lines, but it does add some hideous plastic features and some smaller wheels.  The plastic along the car does fit it, but around the wheel wells it seems to be a bit too much.  Maybe tone down the wheel wells a bit and Saab would have the perfect off-road wagon.
