2005 Saab 9-2X

Based on the typical Saab look that one has come to recognize over the years, the 2005 Saab 9-2X is actually the result of a joint venture between Subaru and Saab. It is available in two engine types – one is the standard 165 hp linear engine, and the other is the punchier 227 horsepower Aero variant.

The car is targeted towards younger people specifically in North America, where the automobile is sold exclusively. The 2005 Saab 9-2X is an all-wheel drive, and has a distinct European styling.

The wraparound headlights and the typical three hole grille form the hood of the car, with an air intake just beneath the front bumper. The back is designed to look more sporty with dark accents on the rear apron.

You can choose from an option of a standard five speed manual transmission, or an automatic four speed. The car comes with front head restraints, all wheel ABS, and side-impact airbags as part of standard equipment.
