The Swedish company Saab has a rich history in aviation and automobiles. With Saab Automobiles under GM control, the products have suffered as GM attempted to integrate Saab with its other European interests. The current lineup includes the 9-3 series, 9-5 series, and a version of GM's midsized SUV, the 9-7x.

For 2009, Saab extends the availability of its new AWD system. All-wheel-drive becomes standard on all V-6 powered 9-3 sedans and wagons and optional on four-cylinder models.

Next up for Saab will be the introduction of a new compact SUV, the 9-4X.
