Saab have always been – a little different. For example, in the 1960s their main car, well their only car, had a 2-stroke 850cc engine that meant you had to add oil every time you filled up, and the interior converted into a bed for those remote Swedish road trips. Oh, and their parent company made fighter jets. But did you know you can still buy a Saab today, and why isn’t it called a Saab?
Many thanks to Sven Bornemark for help reviewing the script and with Swedish pronunciations.
