The Return of the Black Saab Turbo



Recently, the Turbo X Limited Edition has been unveiled with tribute to the first 900 Black Turbo. This Black Turbo marked the beginning of the blown Saab for more than 30 years ago.

The Turbo X has been highly exclusive for Australia, considering that there will be only 30 models delivered to the U.S. market in the first half of 2008.

Both the limited edition sports sedan and wagon are turbocharged to create 206 kW and 400 Nm of torque from a 2.8 L V6 engine.

The sports brake package offers a set of 18 inches alloy wheels with suspension matching the front grille and headlight surrounds. It is darkened but well considered as new 9-3 face.

The XWD system is the most impressive among several innovative modifications in creating the new 9.3.

The on-demand all-wheel drive system offers two separate torque splits: one dividing the twist between the front and the rear wheels, while the other doling out torque to individual rear wheels.

Also, Saab will be introducing a high performance diesel in 2008 along with the coming of its 9.5 BioPower range.

The BMW Turbo X, powered with renewable Ethanol/petrol, was tuned to run under E85 flex-fuel, or a mixture of 85 percent ethanol and 15 percent petrol. Such mixture optimizes the power in the 9.5 by about 20 per cent compared to the standard petrol variants. However, there are only a few bowsers in the areas selling the E85. And so, customers will be having the Turbo X ran on E10 or 10 percent ethanol fuel. The standard power will just then be followed not until bowsers will offer them.
